Lessons learned from making a new friend every day for a year: Maria Scileppi at TEDxVeniceBeach

Artist and Designer Maria Scileppi spent one year of her life making one friend a day and cataloguing her experiences. She presents her findings in this enlightening and motivating talk about the importance of human connection. 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)
