Today, I attended TEDxTerry talks 2012<\/a> with Kelvin, Chloe, Khanh, Abby, Pritisha, Jason, Rikita, Urooba, et al.<\/em> Overall, I was quite pleased with this year’s event. I thought most of the talks were of impressive quality :)
\n<\/span>
\nThis year’s line-up included:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Ryan Vandecasteyen: “Social Capital and the No Tankers Movement”<\/li>\n
  2. Alisha Hackinen: “Soil, It’s Not a Dirty Word!”<\/li>\n
  3. Nick Thornton: “Your Boyfriend Wants to be Pretty”<\/li>\n
  4. Stefana Fratila: “WEIRD ERA: Being sincere in an era of digital creation”<\/li>\n
  5. Alexander Wuolle: “Unmanned Aerial Vehicles”<\/li>\n
  6. Joseph Glaser: “The Canadian Identity Crisis”<\/li>\n
  7. Rebekah Parker: “Lessons from a 6.3 Earthquake: on Community Engagement and Resiliency”<\/li>\n
  8. Erik Brown: “The ‘Trickle-Down’ Effect: How a Toilet Can Save Your Life”<\/li>\n
  9. Sam Eifling: “Dying for Land in Brazil”<\/li>\n
  10. Eunice Hi: “Don’t Just Follow Your Passion–The Missing Link, A Talk for Generation Y”<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I’ll post the talks as soon as I find out they’re online. Expect the sound to be online within the next week or so, and the videos to be online in the next several months.<\/p>\n

    For me, it’s hard to pick a single talk that truly stands out, but there were several that I think I’ll be walking away with quite a bit from. I hope to highlight them as the videos come out.<\/p>\n

    They also watched the following three TED talks (all of which I think I’ve posted previously on my blog):<\/p>\n
