TEDxMelbourne Circle: Imagination

Think of it as a book club for TED Talks where you’re invited to discuss our current topic, learn new things and meet like minded people.

Topic - Imagination

Hosts - Jon Yeo & Joanne Woo - Heads of Curation, TEDxMelbourne

Please watch this featured talk before the TED Circle: How boredom can lead to your most brilliant ideas – Manoush Zomorodi

Bored is a word many of us have been using these past few months, especially if you’ve been in lockdown. We can feel bored with nothing to do but there is also boredom from repetitive and uninspiring moments. Imagine if you could take those moments of monotony and turn them into a tool to help you imagine your most brilliant ideas. In this TED Circle we reflect on the concept of boredom + creativity by TED Speaker Manoush Zomorodi and discuss the ways that humans can turn the mundane into sheer brilliance.

Connect with your TEDxMelbourne community as we discuss and explore the topic of imagination. Register to join our next TED Circle and be a part of this conversation.
