Hey, TEDxUNNC second Autumn Event is Coming!
COME OM and JOIN US!

TOPIC EXPLANATION:

This is one of the most famous lines in movie Batman: The Dark Knight, the joker who uses it impressed us deeply. This is a horrible role in the film——his existence is to subvert the whole world, to ruin the rule of the human.
Although we cannot stand such a guy living in real world, the spirit of ‘overturn’ can be accepted. The reason why we choose this topic is that we want to convey a concept about changing, do something different with the convention. Therefore we hope our speaker could share their idea with fun, not too solemn——How to dispose this? Just take it easy!
We have many theories about what the world should be, but these are just assumptions which exclude the real world factors. So, just show us how you do in the practical situation.

“WHY SO SERIOUS?”是《蝙蝠侠:暗夜前传》里那个玩世不恭的小丑的标志性台词。这是一个令人印象深刻的角色,那些杀人放火,令人发指的行为是他掂量世界的工具,他的全部人生以策反为目的——颠覆良知、正义、无私、公德以及其他。
我们当然不希望这个世界充满了像小丑一样的人,但是这个世界可以存在颠覆的精神。本次活动我们选择这个主题,就是为了传达“颠覆者”这样一个概念:希望Speaker从自己的角度出发,以好玩的心态来诠释自己的本行或者对某段经历某个观点的理解——“WHY SO SERIOUS?”
世界是失衡的,教科书上的理论仅仅是排除了所有可变因素的理想结果,所以我们想看到的是现实,以及你将怎么控制变量,处理现实。
