About this event
This event TEDxParisSalon was the last one of 2012. We welcomed seven speakers on stage and one mentalist. From fashion in prison to the measure of time, from a shamanic experience in Mongolia to landart, from subjective perception to social media in China, the 135 persons in the audience were offered a travel in space, time and ideas.
