Brave New World re-revisited | Nicoletta Iacobacci | TEDxMatera

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. In 1931 Aldus Axley gave us a scary receipt of universal happiness with Brave New World, a satiric book depicting a totalitarian government controlling society by the convergence of technology and science. The talk will compare the utopian society of BWN with today society. Will the exponential growth of emergent technologies create a more sustainable lifestyle? Will re-engineering humans grant a happier future? Nata a Roma, si diploma all’Accademia Belle Arti e lavora per il teatro.

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)
