An open poetic identity and the evolution of consciousness: Albert Flynn DeSilver at TEDxSantaCruz

This TEDxSantaCruz talk is one of 16 surrounding our theme of "Open" at the second full-day TEDxSantaCruz event held September 15, 2012 at the Cabrillo College Crocker Theater in Aptos, CA (Santa Cruz County). http://www.tedxsantacruz.org/ Albert Flynn DeSilver is an internationally published poet, author, artist, publisher, speaker, and writing coach. He served as Marin County's very first poet laureate from 2008-2010. Albert has published several books and hundreds of individual poems in literary journals worldwide. His work has been included in a number of anthologies including "Letters to Poets: Conversations about Poetics, Politics, and Community," which Cornel West called "a courageous and visionary book." His visual work has appeared at The Armand Hammer Museum, and a recent visual poem was included as part of a large public sculpture commissioned by the Freeport Water Authority and EBMUD, designed by the artist Paul Kos, and built on the banks of the Sacramento River in 2010. Albert has taught writing and poetry workshops everywhere from Spirit Rock Meditation Center to San Quentin State Prison, to the British Institute in Paris—and for more than ten years as a California Poet in the Schools. His latest book is "Beamish Boy: A Memoir" about his extraordinary journey toward an open poetic identity. 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)
