Theme: A Thousand Voices

許多值得分享的故事並非獨自成就，而是靠眾人一點一滴累積形塑，透過創新者與推動者共同解決創造共享的成果。

今年TEDxTaipei Salon系列，我們將探索人類的智慧、共同喜好與故事，帶著觀眾走進創造和啟發的過程，看這些不一樣的大小人物如何發揮共同的影響力。

邀請你加入我們，一起開展未來世代的下一個篇章。

-----

We all have stories to share, but such stories and ideas are not shaped by a single voice alone. Many narratives and solutions came together through the collective effort of innovators and catalysts who each contributed to the process of problem solving and change creation.

This year in TEDxTaipei Salon, we aim to explore how human ingenuity, common interests, and a little storytelling can take us all into the world of creativity and inspiring moments. Learn how extraordinary individuals engage with locals to make lasting impact. It’s time that you, too, join us in creating the next chapter of this generation’s story.

邵璦婷 Aiting Shao

----- 邵璦婷，大學畢業後跟朋友一起經營了一間小小的背包客旅店，過程中開始發現台灣有太多連我們自己都不了解的文化。這些文化非常的精彩，卻被我們散落在各處，遭人遺忘。於是2016年初，璦婷和夥伴決定創辦「文化銀行」，走遍臺灣，找尋那些快要消逝的傳統工藝，把他們一個一個記錄下來。不甘於只留下文化標本，更是希望文化並不只是靜靜被欣賞的對象，更能以生動面貌重新活在世人的生活中。 Aiting Shao and two college buddies were budding youth hostel entrepreneurs who saw that many visitors and youths today lacked interest in understanding Taiwan's history and local customs. In 2016, the three of them launched the "Bank of Culture", a platform that enables individuals to make "cultural deposits and withdrawals" so that written stories and video documentations on Taiwan's rich heritage may be passed on, given new meanings, and re-introduced into today's society.
