&427/ Watch to Be Inspired: If I Controlled the Internet

Citing TED.com:

• The talk. "How many poets could cram eBay, Friendster and Monster.com into 3-minute poem worthy of a standing ovation?"
• The speaker. "Flat pages can't contain Rives' storytelling, even when paper is his medium. The pop-up books he creates for children unfold with surprise: The Christmas Pop-Up Present expands to reveal moving parts, hidden areas and miniature booklets inside. On stage, his poems burst in many directions, too, exposing multiple layers and unexpected treats: childhood memories, grown-up humor, notions of love and lust, of what is lost forever and of what's still out there waiting to unfold."

Very late and very early. I am watching TED Salon 2006, Rives. View the talk!
