    The grand Norse saga of the beast slayer - Iseult Gillespie

    Explore the classic poem, “Beowulf,” which follows a heroic prince as he fights to free a kingdom from the monster Grendel.--An epic written in Old English, “Beowulf” is known for its haunting monsters, dream-like language, and paranoid perspective, where violent threats are always waiting on the fringes of society. The action follows Beowulf, a prince of Geats, who travels to aid a kingdom in freeing itself from a monster’s reign of terror. Why is this poem considered a classic? Iseult Gillespie traces the hero’s tale.Lesson by Iseult Gillespie, directed by Raghav Arumugam, Jagriti Khirwar.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/beowulfs-three-bloodiest-battles-iseult-gillespieDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/beowulfs-three-bloodiest-battles-iseult-gillespie/digdeeperAnimator's website: https://www.raghavarumugam.com and https://www.jagritikhirwar.comMusic: https://www.campstudio.co----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!

    I listen to color - Neil Harbisson

    Artist Neil Harbisson was born completely color blind, but these days a device attached to his head turns color into audible frequencies. Instead of seeing a world in grayscale, Harbisson can hear a symphony of color -- and yes, even listen to faces and paintings. Talk by Neil Harbisson. Learn more about your ad choices.

    The emergence of "4D printing" - Skylar Tibbits

    3D printing has grown in sophistication since the late 1970s; TED Fellow Skylar Tibbits is shaping the next development, which he calls 4D printing, where the fourth dimension is time. This emerging technology will allow us to print objects that then reshape themselves or self-assemble over time. Think: a printed cube that folds before your eyes, or a printed pipe able to sense the need to expand or contract. Talk by Skylar Tibbits. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Why do we get two tides each day? - Elise Cutts

    Dig into how the Sun and Moon are responsible for the tides on Earth, and what this force looks like on other celestial bodies.--In the 17th century, Isaac Newton offered the first gravitational explanation of tides. As he correctly identified, tides are choreographed by the motions of celestial objects, and Earth’s tides in particular are mostly driven by the Moon. But the precise nature of this relationship is actually quite nuanced. Elise Cutts explains how the Sun and Moon are responsible for the tides.Lesson by Elise Cutts, directed by Rémi Cans, Atypicalist.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-are-there-two-tides-a-day-elise-cuttsDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-are-there-two-tides-a-day-elise-cutts/digdeeperAnimator's website: https://www.atypicalist.com----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!

    What causes opioid addiction, and why is it so tough to combat? - Mike Davis

    Explore the science of why opioids are addictive and what can be done to reverse the growing rates of addiction and overdose. If you or someone you know is struggling with opioid use in the United States, the Department of Health and Human Services operates a helpline (800-662-4357) and has a database of treatment facilities: https://www.hhs.gov/opioids/--In the 1980s and 90s, pharmaceutical companies began to market opioid painkillers aggressively, while actively downplaying their addictive potential. The number of prescriptions skyrocketed, and so did cases of addiction, beginning a crisis that continues today. What makes opioids so addictive? Mike Davis explains what we can do to reverse the skyrocketing rates of addiction and overdose.Lesson by Mike Davis, directed by Good Bad Habits.Animator's website: https://www.goodbadhabits.ca/Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterSupport us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagramView full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/what-causes-opioid-addiction-and-why-is-it-so-tough-to-combat-mike-davisThank you so much to our patrons for your support!
