Combining a Passion for Engineering with the Circus | Greg Kennedy | TEDxUniversityofRochester

Greg talks about his own experience following a lifelong curiosity that turned into a career between live demonstrations of his creations. Originally trained as an engineer, Greg Kennedy uses the principles of geometry and physics to create groundbreaking work with original apparatus. As a young juggler, he quickly made a name for himself in the juggling community not only by his mastery of traditional juggling technique, but also for creating entirely new forms of manipulation. He is now renowned for his many original contributions to juggling as an art form. While jugglers know him for his award-winning creativity, audiences know him for his entertaining performance, in which he combines art and science to create visual spectacles. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
