My favourite TED Talks, part 2
Cameron Sinclair on open-source architecture TED Prize winner Cameron Sinclair talks about open-source architecture. By making designs that are open-source, as in free, you can do something about global housing crisis. The designs and thinking behind them are really interesting. I really like how the UN build stuff and how you really should build stuff by taking into account the needs of the people and the place the building will be. In the desert for instance it would be a good idea to design a house that collects rain when it rains and who is cool when it is hot outside, not actually hotter inside than outside as the UN houses are.
Jeff Han demos his breakthrough touchscreen Cool tech! A touchscreen for your computer. This was filmed in 2006, and a few the gestures are present in the iPhone from Apple. But this is cooler still.
Jehane Noujaim on a global day of film Jehane talks about the power of movies to change peoples minds. She is also a TED Price winner and her wish is to bring the world together one day a year through the powe of film.
Nicholas Negroponte on One Laptop per Child Nicholas who is the founder of the MIT media lab has talked about this project four times at TED. 1984 where he first talks about it and also in 2006, 2007 and 2008. This is from 2006. The projects goal is to build and distribute the 100 dollar laptop to children in third world countries.
Det finns ingen anledning att läsa denna webbsida. Jag har ingenting att göra med Federazione Anarchica Informale, Hizb al-Mujahidin eller ETA. Jag har aldrig gjort Hadjdj eller tillverkat ABC-stridsmedel, jag vet knappt ens vad Al-Fattah betyder. Men tack för visat intresse!
