he Pangeon Blog is an agora at the crossroads of Language, Culture, Design, and Mind.
This talk was given by Graham Morehead, Curator of The Pangeon at the 2014 TEDxUMaine.
A man rots unjustly in jail, the sea urchins are dying, and Google Translate doesn't work. Morehead ties together these three disjoint narratives using starlings.
His talk tackles the concept of a complex system. Being complex is not the same as being complicated. Even though no entity within a system can see the whole picture, undeniable large-scale patterns emerge from the system. As we learn to describe this emergence mathematically, in terms of entropy, stability, and far-from-equilibrium dynamics, we will better understand systems like markets, ecologies, and life itself.
Graham Morehead, the curator of "The Pangeon" talks at TEDxYouth@JBMHS in Bangor, ME at the Gracie Theatre.
Graham talked about his academic challenges and career pit stops mentioning 3 significant mentors who taught him important life lessons. His talk also tackled about how man's exploration made the world a better place. He ended his talk by challenging the listeners to do more of what they are required to do, quoting from him: "Humanity is waking up, be a part of it."
The curator of The Pangeon, Graham Morehead, speaks at TEDx Dirigo.
His topic: Save the Urchin Fishery With This One Weird Trick!
Graham Morehead is interested in language and thought. An unlikely series of events led him to study computer science and the green sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis. Studying under James Wilson, an economist at the University of Maine, Graham was introduced to the field of complex adaptive systems, a new tool for understanding the ecology of sea urchins, human-natural coupled systems, economies, and perhaps even language and thought.
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.
Curator of The Pangeon and IT Manager for R.H. Foster Graham Morehead came by the TideSmart Talk with Stevoe studio to discuss sea urchins, voice recognition and deep thoughts. Morehead also told Stevoe all about his newest project, a blogging site called Pangeon, and how he came up with the name and its meaning.
I was doing something crazy. Previously a physics student at Boston University, I was now on temporary leave, doing two years at La Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, in Spain. I was studying physics in a foreign language! In most classes the texts had been in spanish. Now I was going to take Quantum Physics, and the Cohen-Tannoudji text we were using was only available in English. I tho ...
