Ken Robinson on education

One of the most famous, and I think best TED talks, now shortened and with RSA animation.

Public education was designed for different times. Schools still operate like factories. People are still thought in an academic/non-academic dichotomy.

Worth to see again.

The story of Western music

Here is a nice video illustrating and playing music from various points in history.

It is in Spanish, but the language of music is universal anyway.

The gut of stick insects

Here is a 2 min video on pure research.

It is not about solving a puzzle, rather it is about finding the pieces.

Organic food

Here is a talk by Mark Lynas, an activist heavily involved in the campaign against GM crops.

He changed his mind! And speaks about his journey. It is a great summary of issues behind GM crops.

If you prefer a transcript to read in your spare time, you can get it [here](http://www.marklynas.org/2013/01/lecture-to-oxford-farming- conference-3-january-2013/), also in German, Spanish, French, Vietnamese and Italian! As you may expect there are lots of comments too.

R'ha

Here is a home made movie, made by a very small group of people. It contains special effects that were blockbuster calibre 15 years ago.

Scifi. Worth a look.
