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. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Nice talk, even though I am a bit late to this party. I'm getting interested in how unexpected emergent behavior starts showing up in things like social networks (Unexpected consequences of some simple swarming behavior rules). I am also interested in how you could derive the simple rules from complex systems (is it as simple as looking for common behaviors of individual agents in the system?)

I'd probably add the same goes for work - in teams. Focusing on the interactions, an agreed approach to the relations...versus other static parameters.

I mostly enjoyed this talk. Certainly an important subject. Just one observation I feel compelled to mention: following up a sentence with the word "right" is unnecessary and distracting. In my culture it also comes across as narcissistic. I've probably got some annoying habits too so not trying to cut you down. So good to see people taking an interest in understanding stuff.

I think at 12:23 Joe got it wrong. This quote is actually talking about emergence, not synthesis or convergence. They are actually quite the opposite of each other

This is the same as sinchronized manufacturing in which you need complex calculation vrs just in time/constraint theory. They both study the same thing but JIT is much simpler.

This is a very interesting talk and the 3 options presented seem to work. However, I find this all very creepy because essentially, what is said is that these systems work based on the principle of "follow what other people do". And I think that this shows something atrocious of any system. We need to start telling people that they need to use their own head instead of blindly follow others.
