TED Prize Talks

Posted on April 6, 2007 Under Life

At long last the talks of TED Prize Winners, President Bill Clinton, EO Wilson and James Nachtwey are available online for your viewing pleasure. I’ve embedded James Nachtwey’s talk here about his decades as a photo journalist– my favorite of the three. In this gripping and (warning) very visual talk James takes us through nearly 3 decades of his photos from street violence to famine, disease and war. He then makes his wish, asking for help gaining access to a story that needs to be told, and developing a new, digital way to show these photos to the world. This year the TED talks are even available for download in High Resolution (480p). Be sure to check out Clinton and EO Wilson’s speeches as well at the TED Blog or after the jump. These videos make the hairs stand up on my neck– so powerful!
