TEDxIslay - Robert Sirvage - What We Can Learn From People with Usher's Syndrome

For more information about this event, please go to www.tedxislay.com. This speech was made at TEDxIslay in Austin, Texas on May 15, 2010. All of the speakers were deaf. 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.)
