The first-ever TED event took place in 1984, introducing to the audience the compact disk, 3D graphics from Lucasfilm, and the e-book. The best TED talks don’t just bring up great ideas or excellent perspectives – they bring the best entertainment, the best designs for our future, and of course some of the best ideas we as humans can offer.
This is the TEDxWinterPark’s pick – Shonda Rhimes
Shonda Rhimes, the voice behind many TV series such as; Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal and How to Get Away With Murder. “When I am hard at work, when I am deep in it, there is no other feeling,” she says. The hum. That is what she calls this feeling. The hum is a drug, the hum is music, the hum is God’s whisper in her ear. How do you hear the “yes”!
