1)JR.
2)Use art to turn the world inside out
3)How he uses his art to try to change the world
4)A semi-anonymous French street artist,called JR., uses his camera to show the world its true face, by pasting photos of the human face across massive canvases. At TED2011, he makes his audacious TED Prize wish: to use art to turn the world inside out.
5)Semi-anonymous french artist. Uses a 28 mm camera to take portraits of people that match his project concept, blows them up and pastes them on various buildings around a city in which there is an issue surrounding the community.
6)Jr is over-viewing the various projects he has already completed and is asking the audience to help partake in trying to resolve issues among a community. He is also asking people to participate in his Inside-Out project.
7)I am excited about this particular talk because I am a photographer as well and becoming a photo-journalist is one of my aspirations in life. I have also always been fascinated with street artists and their view of the world.

1)Charles Limb
2)Your Brain On Improv
3)How the brain works during musical improvisation
4)Charles Kimb put jazz musicians and rappers in an fMRI to find out how their brains work on improvisation. What he and his team found has deep implications for our understanding of creativity of all kinds.
5)On Charles Limb's official website he has two titles: Associate Professor, Otolaryngology, Head & Neck Surgery, and Faculty, Peabody Conservatory of Music. With these titles he intertwines his two passions to study the way the brain creates and perceives music. He's a hearing specialist and surgeon at Johns Hopkins who performs cochlear implantations on patients who have lost their hearing. He plays sax, piano and bass too.
6)He's showing his audience his research done on musical improvisation and how the brain perceives things when using improvisation. He also states that music could actually be a language of it's own.
7)I'm excited about this talk because like most people, I absolutely love music. I play bass and guitar and it is ground breaking that music being a language of it's own may be proved. I also am a fan of hip-hop and I like that he included hip-hop artist freestyling and how their brains work while they freestyle.
8)It has given me an even greater appreciation for music and science.
9)One idea that I take away from this talk is that one day people will have the ability to communicate solely through musical instruments.
10)Creativity
1)Julian Assange
2)Why the World Needs Wikileaks
3)Assange talks about Wikileaks, how the site operates and what drives them forward to continue releasing information to the world.
4)Founder Julian Assange, talks to TED's Chris Anderson about how the site operates, what it has accomplished, and why he still continues to pursue it. This talk also includes graphic footage of a recent US air strike in Baghdad.
5)Australian. Studied Physics and Mathematics at the University of Melbourne.Amnesty International recognized him with an International Media Award in 2009.
6)Julian Assange talks about how Wikileaks will continue to release information to the world as-long as they have good reason to do so.
7)I'm excited about this particular talk because I can see myself doing similar work in the future and bringing controversial information to the people as truthfully as possible.
8)It hasn't, because I have always felt the same way about authorities hiding information from it's citizens. I don't think it's right and I have even more support for this group after viewing this talk.

James Nachtway's searing photos of war -I didn't follow criteria for this one.

6)It really affected me because it helped me decide what I really want to create with my photography and become from photography.

8)In my opinion, yes, it is very worth while, but it really depends on what you are interested in and what you want to do with your time on earth.
9)A solution he gave to show the world what war truly is, was to keep on supporting him in his journies and to continue the subject of photojournalism.

6)I believe the main point he was making is that it is almost impossible to live through the bible and some things in the bible are meant to be taken metaphorically rather than literally.
7)I think it is absolutely hilarious what he is doing and through his sense of humour he is also revealing truth.
8)He has helped me prove why I believe the bible is a piece of poetry using metaphors rather than a guideline you should live your live by.

His 2005 book In Katrina's Wake: Portraits of Loss from an Unnatural Disaster is a chilling, unflinching look at the toll of the storm. And his latest series of photographs, "Running the Numbers," gives dramatic life to statistics of US consumption.
6)The main point of this talk is to show how much we Westerners waste. He does this through eye-catching art pieces.

1)Jody Williams

5)Civil-rights and peace activist Jody Williams, received the nobel peace prize in 1997 as the chief strategist of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines, which established the first global treaty banning antipersonnel mines.
6)That peace can be obtained, not through being a complete pacifist and having a somewhat unrealisitic utopia of what the world should be, but through being reasonable and working together for the better of all earthlings.
