Monica Tailor's notes from TED2011
We weren’t sure what to expect from our third TED simulcast; September’s TEDxChange was a strangely detached, yet global experience for us, December’s TEDWomen was a very small group, but enabled some fun, intimate and animated discussions; indeed, both events were difficult to promote.
However, like our larger scale, live TEDxLeeds conferences, our TED2011 simulcast was a hit. We sold out around a week before the event with people registering on a wait list; we chose to go with a more informal, “lounge” setting; we encouraged everyone to put their feet up, let their hair down, come and go as they pleased from sessions; indeed, all but one of our guests asked us to extend our schedule from 4pm to midnight!
… we’re just a few hours from beginning our simulcast of TED2011‘s second day from Old Broadcasting House; however day one is already underway in Long Beach and we’re able to tune in to ensure the live stream is working.
In the last few minutes, we’ve been checking out talks from Carlo Ratti and Aaron Koblin. Here’s a sneak preview of what we’re seeing – and what our 30+ guests will be experiencing in a few hours…
It’s official, we’ve been granted permission to simulcast the second day of this year’s TED2011 conference in Long Beach, California! Speakers include Morgan Spurlock and Bill Gates!
