Ideas Worth Spreading

TEDxNYUAD is part of the TEDx series, a program that brings the spirit of TED’s mission of ideas worth spreading to local communities around the globe. This year’s theme, “In Plain Sight” focuses on ideas or concepts that become hidden in plain sight due to either our constant exposure to them or lack of noticeable alternatives. It is open-ended, meaning that any idea in the (social) sciences, psychology, art, engineering, culture or other disciplines can be discussed.
