TEDx Middlebury: Living in the Questi...Description
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At TEDxMiddlebury, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. This year's theme is "Living in the Question," inspired by a famous quote from poet Rainer Maria Rilke. The theme aims to challenge the traditional question-answer paradigm that often frames how we live and think. Following Rilke's lead, the TEDxMiddlebury organizers propose the idea of inquiry as an ongoing process and way of thinking, rather than solely a means to getting answers. Stories will focus on our relationship to the present moment, the importance of questioning the status quo, and coming to terms with a distinct a lack of answers. Ticket info forthcoming.
