Can you learn the hardest language in the world? | Irina Pravet | TEDxOtaniemiED

Экскурсия. Самый сокровенный секрет Нью Джерси. Уникальный парк скульптур.


Джон Сьюард Джонсон II умер 10 марта 2020 г. Очень жаль.
Парк, находящийся недалеко от Принстона, не только знакомит с современной скульптурой и популяризирует изобразительное искусство (Моне, Руссо, Матисс, Ренуар, Мунк), но и создает новую реальность своими композициями, выполненными в человеческий рост, и воспроизводящими поверхности кожи и материалов с детальной точностью). Очень интересно обнаруживать в разных уголках парка скульптуры, которые принимаешь за людей и людей, которых подозреваешь в скульптурности. Отдельное впечатление- скульптуры в многоэтажный дом. В парке есть чудесный ресторанчик с романтичным пейзажем.

Александр Панчин – о важности критического мышления


Почему буквально в каждом нестандартном событии мы стараемся разглядеть знаки свыше? Разумно ли современному человеку в своих неудачах обвинять черную кошку или разбитое зеркало? Как бороться с собственной мнительностью и много ли вокруг нас действительно мистического? Насколько важно выработать у себя навыки критического мышления, чтобы не стать жертвой чьих-то манипуляций? На эти и другие вопросы ответит Александр Панчин, кандидат биологических наук, лауреат премии «Просветитель» за книгу «Сумма биотехнологии», старший научный сотрудник Института проблем передачи информации РАН.
