TED Blog | Design Mind magazine highlights TEDGlobal 2012 - "Radical Openness" | The Information Professional | Scoop.it
TED is a small nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading -- through TED.com, our annual conferences, the annual TED Prize and local TEDx events.

 

"The theme of TEDGlobal 2012 was “Radical Openness” — a topic that caught the eye of Design Mind magazine. The publication, from longtime TEDGlobal supporter frog, has dedicated an entire issue to the conference. Including Q&As with speakers, behind-the-scenes looks at preparations for talks and an abundance of endeavors related to talks, we picked a few of our favorite articles from this unique vantage point of the conference.

Below, some pieces to peruse.

 

“What’s the Value of Collaborative Consumption?” by Hannah Piercy - http://designmind.frogdesign.com/articles/radical-openness/what-s-the-value-of-collaborative-consumption.html

 

“The End of Education As We Know It” by Scott Barry Kaufman - http://designmind.frogdesign.com/articles/radical-openness/the-end-of-education-as-we-know-it.html

 

“How Far Should Governments Open Up?” by Hannah Piercey - http://designmind.frogdesign.com/articles/radical-openness/how-far-should-governments-open-up.html
