On Sunday 3 June I participated in the first TEDxUCL event. There were a range of talks on a
diverse variety of topics. I was allocated one of the longest slots and made use of the time to
talk
about some of the ideas in my research I've been developing for some years. During the first
part
of the talk I also performed a rather physical demonstration of the brittleness of current
technology by hammering a nail through a laptop. The gasps of the audience were quite
amusing.
You can also see a range of photos from the event online here. The twitter response was so funny - particularly when I hammered a nail through a laptop live on stage - that I took a few snapshots of it, below: |
