TEDxTheHague November 2009 Edition: The Power of Sound

#TEDxTheHague

Ashamed to realize - thanks for the hint, @EarlyBird44, you're too kind - I've failed to show up at the #TEDxTheHague event last Friday.

Latest TEDTalks

TEDTalks : Tom Wujec demos the 13th-century astrolabe - Tom Wujec (2009)

Rather than demo another new technology, Tom Wujec reaches back to one of our earliest but most ingenious devices -- the astrolabe. With thousands of uses, from telling time to mapping the night sky, this old tech reminds us that the ancient can be as brilliant as the brand-new.
