ELEW

First up for TEDxRVA is ELEW. He’s decked out in some seriously fashionable threads–including metal bracers! His advice on creating: discover, observe, and share.

Oh, and, he covered Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” on a grand piano.

TEDxRVA will live-stream all 30 talks

Organizers of the March 22nd TEDxRVA event have announced they will live stream presentations by all 30 speakers on the TEDxRVA website.

“TED is about sharing ideas worth spreading,” said event curator Andy Stefanovich. “The Richmond region has these ideas and the time has come to share them with the world. In addition, we have curated a host of talks from around the world, to offer their valuable perspectives. Inside and out, we will be inspired and challenged.”
