Our 2014 Theme is WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE
We are excited to announce the theme of this year’s TEDxConstitutionDrive: Where the Wild Things Are!
We will explore the boundaries of the world in which we live — exposing different interpretations of what it means to be wild and raw, as well as how wildness comes to be. From ocean foraging to native food growing in the hillsides of California, to the gorgeous festivals all over the world, the sensual demands of the flesh, and the wild west of startup and hacker culture in Silicon Valley. This year’s speakers will take us on a journey of mind and heart, taste and touch, and help us remember how to break the patterns of our lives.
The themes of previous years have been Time, Trust and Identity, respectively. In previous years, we’ve had neuroscientists and venture capitalists, inmates and psychologists, filmmakers and beatbox cellists. This year, we have some amazing speakers in our line-up, the remarkable Chip Conley, the irrepressible Kirk Lombard, among many wonderful others.
We try to make this an intimate and low-key event where people who are deeply interested in the topic can engage with each other on a personal level. Please come with an open mind and a sincere desire to connect with the ideas and the other attendees.
Our venue is the phenomenal classic car warehouse and winery (yes, both!) Auto-Vino. If you love one-of-a-kind fabulous cars and wine-tasting, in addition to great ideas and people, this is the TEDx for you. After we finish the speaker sessions at 4pm, we will transition to the winery counter for an optional wine-tasting flight (included in your ticket).
