TEDx Amsterdam Promo
[posted by Donald®]
About TEDx, x = independently organized event 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 a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Idea of tree machine
Idea of a tree products
The idea of a tree is a machine which produce furniture by sunshine. Every product of the machine is different depending on the location and time of the day of the machine. The color of the product changing by the amount of sunlight. In this way every product is slightly different and a sort of 3D photograph of space and time. The machine is inspired by nature and the growing process of a tree. I personally really like the idea of growing furniture. Designer: Mischer Traxler, source: Dezeen

David de Rothschild want to motivate peple for the re-use of products. Therefor he’s building a new type of sailing ship. He’ll sail from San Francisco to Sydney in the Plastiki, a rather unusual craft:
De Rothschild has built a team he calls the Smart Collective to combat inefficient design. He brought together a group of intelligent folks who had never built a boat before to design the Plastiki….
When finished, the Plastiki will be made of 12,500 2-liter plastic bottles collected by Waste Management, will weigh 9 tons, and will have a crew of six. The Plastiki will have a composting toilet, onboard renewable energy and a garden. “People are so shocked that we’re going to grow food on the boat,” de Rothschild mused.
