TEDxExeter 2013 – Living the Questions

We have gathered another group of outstanding innovators, activists and performers who are changing the world through their ground breaking work and ideas.

On 12 April, we are looking forward to exploring how to live the important questions facing us in all areas of life, including money, business, prosperity, sustainability, the environment, childhood and old age, community, society, science.

Thank you for coming! We hope you enjoyed living the questions as much as we did. We expect the videos of the talk to be available in mid-May. In the meantime, you can review the Programme and read the live blog, and see the posts on Living the Questions in the run-up to the day.

    “I beg you, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”

    • "Video game’s potential contribution to human life is lost because we think they are just entertainment. We need to start talking about them in new ways to capitalise on the rich resource of meaning they hold."

    • "There is a dangerous misconception that we have a choice between ecology and economic development. But 100% of our services comes from nature – soil, biodiversity, water, resources. Nature has intrinsic value and needs protecting for its own sake. For our own self-interest, we also need to embed nature in all economic activities."
