Sarasota, FL – What does an aerospace engineer; hoop dancer; record producer; tech innovator; design thinker; challenged athlete; transformer of urban schools and an American Buddhist monk all have in common? They will be part of a contagious, creative and idea-filled experience on Wednesday, December 12, 2012, during the first day-long session of TEDx Sarasota. The complete list of speakers can be previewed here: http://www.tedxsarasota.com/12-12-12-speakers/
The TEDx Sarasota 12.12.12 event will be held at the Historic Asolo Theater at the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art and will consist of six sessions scheduled from 9:00am to 9:00pm. The 12.12.12 event promises to be a powerful exchange of ideas inspiring people to change their lives and their futures. Participants attending are not simply an audience, but an important part of the TEDx process encouraged to engage and exchange “ideas worth spreading” out into the world.
Further, on December 12th, 12.12.12, across the planet, documentary filmmakers, students, and other inspired citizens will record the human experience over a 24-hour period and contribute their voice to the third annual global day of media creation called One Day on Earth. TEDx Sarasota will be part of this global film effort on location from the event site. http://www.onedayonearth.org/
