MERIJN BOLINK - great - but accidentally discovered - ideas will lead the future
Merijn Bolink is an artist and is renowned for his art works made out of existing objects, sometimes even out of dead dissected animals. But that's not all. Bolink is more than an artist with a profound interest in renewing the arts; he leads the way by demonstrating how ideas just happen randomly and in large numbers, both in and outside the domain of the arts.
These days people are predominantly stimulated to think rationally, purposefully and specifically while Bolink actually pleads for randomly thinking once and a while. At TEDxRotterdam, Bolink will have the audience experience how he thinks up his new ideas. He will even stimulate you to come up with 25 fresh ideas yourself.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event.

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)
