We don’t know much about them except that these portraits were taken on Grote St. They were posted in two locations – under the Morphett St bridge [...]

Speaking: Cath Dwyer
by Rubina Carlson on 2:36 am in 2011, Speakers
First there were the broadcasters, then there was peer-to-peer media sharing. ABC Open sits where the two converge: a conduit for the flow of stories and ideas between the “active audience” and the national broadcaster. After one year, and thousands of contributions from regional Australia, Cath Dwyer presents the case for community participation in mainstream [...]

Anyone want a burger? Despite the amount of attention paid to food trucks, with even reality TV programming touching on the subject, there is no consensus regarding the advantages and disadvantages of the model for city and citizen. The same could be said of the growing interest in “paddock to plate” movements. Parsing through the [...]

How Do I Get Involved?What is TEDx?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience.
Our event is called TEDxAdelaide, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxAdelaide event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group.
The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
Visit the TEDx website to learn more: http://www.ted.com/tedx
