A father-daughter bond, one photo at a time (Steven Addis)

Steven Addis is a person whose passion is photography. But in this Ted talk, he shares with the public his 15 most treasured photos which most of them were taken by random tourists.
It all started when, Steve Addis and his family went to New York City. He stood on a corner holding his 1-year-old daughter in his arms and his wife took a photo. Back then, they had no idea how much this trip would change their lives, since the image has inspired an annual father-daughter ritual, where Addis and his daughter pose for the same picture, on the same corner, each year. It has really become sacred to them.
Soon Addis realized that these photos are not only a reflection of a specific moment of their lives, but also a way to reflect on their times and see how they change from year to year, and not just
physically,but in every way. Because even if we take the same photo every year, our perspectives change, and he could see it in the way her daughter reaches new milestones and how she interacts with and sees everything.

He also ended up with the conclusion that one of the most important things we all make are
memories. So, he encourages everyone to take an active role in consciously creating memories and to not hesitate to go up to strangers and ask if they could take a picture for you.

How we’ll find life on other planets

The astronomer Aomawa Shields searches for clues that life might exist elsewhere in the universe by examining the atmospheres of distant exoplanets, she searches a new planets with life.

She says that the planets that have water probably can have life, and the astronomists searches a planets with a determinate distance to the stars. His job starts when the others scientist finishes his, she searches other factors like the atmosphere, for example Venus have a thick atmosphere and his temperatures are very high. She uses computer models for calculate the type of atmosphere which must have a planet. The ice is an important factor for the temperatures and the temperature of the planets not depends the stars have around.

Finally she have a foundation where they teaches astronomy a black girls and linked the science with the art.

"Your online life, permanent like a tattoo", by Juan Enriquez (Vicky Zabaco)

In this Ted Talk, Juan Enriquez talks about, the real tattoos, which tells you a lot of stories about the person, and about his life, his real life, and experiences. And it's incredible, that the majority of people don't have any tattoos, and more of the 95% has a social network, like Facebbok, Twitter, Linked, Ask, Instagram, and more and more... And this type of information that people mostrate in that social networks are more inmortallity than a real tattoo. This social networks tells you a lot of stories, pictures, memories, and more information, because with only one picture, you can get a lot of information of that person.

In the opinion of Juan Enriquez, this it can be compared with Greeks. With Sisyphus, Orpheus, Atalanta, and Narcissus, and one from Latin American, who is called Jorge Luis Borges. 

I have chosen this Ted Talk, because I have one tattoo, and I thought that it would be a good video, and to see another point of view. 

I liked so much, because he says the really thruth about the social networks.

Tells the story of each of the refugees in Syria and also explains his family and his journey to get to Holland, where they were allados their corpses.

The mysterious world of underwater caves

Jill Heinerth is an explorer diving. She is interested in the underwater world since she was a kid.

Nowadays she goes through the planet exploring the underwater caves and differents waterways. Also she works with biologists, studying the differents creatures which lives in the underwaters caves. A lot of them have lived for thousends of years and also they thought that they were extinct, and we can learn how they survived. Climatologists are also   interested in the underwater world, for example Jill Heinerth made an exploration in a underwater cave in the Bahamas, and they found that the rocks were red. They discovered later that was the sand from the Sahara desert that flew with the wind and go throught the sand and water to be there.

Also she have been in differents countries, like Bahamas, Cuba, Mexico with paleontologist and archeologist people, trying to search the cultural and human remains.

But her favourite project was over 15 years ago, When she was part of a team who made the first three-dimensional map of a underwater cave. The device she is using is creating a three-dimensional models of the cave. The team used an ultra low radio frequency to send to the surface they'r position in cave. So they discovered they were under houses and businesses swimming and bowling and Sonny's BBQ Restaurant,

FOR THESE WOMEN, READING IS A DARING ACT

This Ted Talk is about women's education in Arabian countries and how education can change a life.

Laura Boushnak is an arab photographer who did a project called 'I read I write' driven by her own experience, as she had to fight hard to become who she is today only because of being a woman.

This project consisted on photographing different women, which she had to convince telling them that their example would help many other women in the same situation and encourage them to change it, with a phrase related with their life histories to expose them later.

Laura explains that she travelled to Egypt, Tunez and Yemen where she met four women and got four cases to her project and she remembers and highlights phrases as: "I sought education in order to be independent and to not count on men with everything” and "Question your convictions. Be who you to want to be, not who they want you to be. Don't accept their enslavement, for your mother birthed you free".

HOW NORMAL PEOPLE BECOME MONSTERS (BY PHILIP ZIMBARDO- IRENE VEZZOLI)

Philip Zimbardo starts his speech explaining that he grew up in Bronx, a urban getto in New York, so he has been sorrounded by evil all life. His question is: Why some people are good and kind and other people are bad and evil? Where do we have to place the line between goodness and evil?
He has written a book called "The Lucifer Efect", wich explains the influence of the circumstances on people.
That book is based on an experiment he did in the prison os Stanford. He chose a group of volunteer students and separte them into prisoners and guards. The impressing thing about this strage experiment is that normal people who didn't have any mental problema became cruel and started to humiliete eacho other as a method to achieve their purpouses.
What Zimbardo tries to expain is that maybe in determined circumstances we shouldn't blame people, but the situation.
Finally he emphasizes that if you want to change a person, you have to change the situation first.
