👁What I learned from going blind in space
‌
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

👣There's an astronaut saying: In space, “there is no problem so bad that you can’t make it worse.” So how do you deal with the complexity, the sheer pressure, of dealing with dangerous and scary situations? Retired colonel Chris Hadfield paints a vivid portrait of how to be prepared for the worst in space (and life) -- and it starts with walking into a spider’s web. Watch for a special space-y performance.

👁Don't fear superintelligent AI
‌
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

👣New tech spawns new anxieties, says scientist and philosopher Grady Booch, but we don't need to be afraid an all-powerful, unfeeling AI. Booch allays our worst (sci-fi induced) fears about superintelligent computers by explaining how we'll teach, not program, them to share our human values. Rather than worry about an unlikely existential threat, he urges us to consider how artificial intelligence will enhance human life.

👁An art made of trust, vulnerability and connection
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

👣Marina Abramović's art pushes the boundary between audience and artist in pursuit of heightened consciousness and personal change. In her groundbreaking 2010 work, \"The Artist Is Present,\" she simply sat in a chair facing her audience, for eight hours a day ... with powerfully moving results. Her boldest work may still be yet to come -- it's taking the form of a sprawling art institute devoted to experimentation and simple acts done with mindful attention. \"Nothing happens if you always do things the same way,\" she says. \"My method is to do things I'm afraid of, the things I don't know, to go to territory that nobody's ever been.\"

👁What I learned from 100 days of rejection
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

👣Jia Jiang adventures boldly into a territory so many of us fear: rejection. By seeking out rejection for 100 days -- from asking a stranger to borrow $100 to requesting a \"burger refill\" at a restaurant -- Jiang desensitized himself to the pain and shame that rejection often brings and, in the process, discovered that simply asking for what you want can open up possibilities where you expect to find dead ends.

👁What I learned as a prisoner in North Korea
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

👁How to shift your mindset and choose your future
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

👣When it comes to big life problems, we often stand at a crossroads: either believe we're powerless against great change, or we rise to meet the challenge. In an urgent call to action, political strategist Tom Rivett-Carnac makes the case for adopting a mindset of \"stubborn optimism\" to confront climate change -- or whatever crisis may come our way -- and sustain the action needed to build a regenerative future. As he puts it: \"Stubborn optimism can fill our lives with meaning and purpose.\"
