In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Сергей Довлатов Записки надзирателя


Я обнаружил поразительное сходство между лагерем и волей. Между заключенными и надзирателями… По обе стороны запретки расстилался единый и бездушный мир… Мы говорили на одном, приблатненном языке… Мы даже выглядели одинаково… Мы были очень похожи и даже – взаимозаменяемы. Почти любой заключенный годился на роль охранника. Почти любой надзиратель заслуживал тюрьмы.
