Rives is a poet, storyteller, author, speaker, event host, paper engineer, night owl activist, and since 2013 has been curator of the Museum of Four O'Clock in the Morning. He is a frequent speaker at the TED conference (in fact he is one of a rare few presenters who have six talks on TED.com) and he has been a regular host of TEDActive and TEDYouth. Rives appeared on Seasons 3–6 of HBO's Def Poetry Jam and was a member of Team Hollywood, which won the 2004 National Poetry Slam. He also starred alongside model Bar Refaeli in the 2008 Bravo special Ironic Iconic America, touring the United States on a “roller coaster ride through the eye-popping panorama of American pop culture.” Rives also appeared as the “first 2.0 poet” in a series of ads for telecom company Orange S.A., and has performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and appeared on NPR's All Things Considered. As a poet, Rives' way with words has been called a “demonstration of what the English language is capable of.” He is known for humorously layered and heartwarming pieces such as “Kite” and “Mockingbird," as well as for his use of multimedia in his performances, seamlessly intertwining images, video, and often the audience members themselves with his poems. Rives has written and paper engineered several pop-up books for children and adults. Flat pages can't contain his storytelling, even when paper is his medium. The pop-up books he creates for children unfold with surprise: The Christmas Pop-Up Present expands to reveal moving parts, hidden areas and miniature booklets inside. Early in his career, Rives worked at Intervisual Books, under the leadership of Waldo Hunt. Two pop-up books, with paper engineering by Rives—The Consummate Cigar Book and If I Were A Polar Bear—were finalists for the Movable Book Society Meggendorfer Prize for Best Paper Engineering. Recently, with our Cathleen, Rives began hosting Nighthawks Hangouts, invitation-only online gatherings for night owls, nighthawks, dawn-treaders, night shifters, midnight ramblers, lifelong and situational insomniacs, apprentice vampires, and those who are more likely to stay up until than to wake up at dawn, and who often find themselves awake when much of the rest of the world is asleep.

Andrew Cotton (@andrew_cotton) is, according to British newspaper The Daily Mail, Britain’s most famous plumber. He’s also one of the world’s most accomplished big wave surfers and in 2014 riding a wave estimated to be 80 feet high only narrowly missed claiming the world record for the biggest wave ever surfed. It was Andrews father who first introduced him to the sport as a young man, the same person who then sat him down in his early 20s after he’d lost a couple of his sponsors and told him he needed to get a job and get on with his life. Andrew complied, completed his plumbing apprenticeship and got a job. Torn between his love of surfing and a career, he backed himself and with the support of his wife turned all his efforts back to surfing. Today, as a Red Bull athlete, Andrew travels the world in search of perfect waves and a dream to ride the biggest of all time. He speaks to large corporation’s regularly on topics including high-stakes decision making and the like. In 2014 he traveled to Brooklyn, New York to speak at TedYouth, the division of Ted that caters for middle school and high school students. To learn more about Andrew visit his website here. We caught up as he prepared for the big wave season in Portugal. Amongst my attempt to figure out the sport of surfing in one conversation, there are some real gems here. We discuss life’s turning points, mental preparation and his thoughts on goal setting.

설용(雪龍; Snow Dragon), 진상(眞想), 얼어붙은 미노타우루스. 이런 이름들은 에디 카타야와 그의 등반 동료인 브렌트 맥그리거가 최초로 탐사한 빙하 동굴에 붙인 이름입니다. 샌디 빙하가 오레곤주의 후드산을 천천히 미끄러져 내려오면서, 상부의 따뜻한 물과 하부에서 올라오는 따뜻한 공기로 인하여 빙하 안에는 매년 동굴과 터널이 만들어집니다. TEDYouth에서 카타야는 얼음이 푸른색과 초록으로 빛나고 천정에서 조각물이 비처럼 내려오는 이런 마법의 공간으로 우리를 안내합니다.
「スノー・ドラゴン」 「ピュア・イマジネーション」 「フローズン・ミノタウルス」 これらはエディ・カルタヤと、彼の登山パートナーであるブレント・マクレガーが初めて発見・探検した氷河洞窟に付けた名前です。 オレゴン州にあるサンディ氷河は、フッド山の斜面をゆっくりと滑り落ちていく一方、上から注ぎ込む温かい水と下から流れ込む温かい空気の流れにより、洞穴は年々新たな形を造っていきます。 カルタヤはTEDYouthで、氷が青や緑に輝き、遺物が長い時間をかけて天井から落ちてくる神秘の世界へとあなたをいざないます。
تنّين الثّلج، الخيال الخالص و المينوتور المتجمّد هي أسماء الكهوف التي كان إيدي كارتايا و شريكه في التّسلق برينت ماك غريغور أول من اكتشفها. مع تدفّق مثلجة ساندي ببطئ أسفل جبل هود بأوريغون، يتغيّر شكل الكهوف و القنوات داخله سنويّا بفضل الماء الدّافئ القدم من الأعلى و الهواء الدّافئ القادم من أسفل. في TEDYouth، يأخذنا كارتايا في رحلة داخل هذه الأماكن السحريّة حيث يتلألأ الثّلج في ألوان زرقاء و خضراء برّاقة و حيث الآثار تمطر من السقف.
Dragon de Neige. Pure Imagination. Minotaure gelé. Voilà les noms qu'Eddy Cartaya et son partenaire d'alpinisme Brent McGregor ont donné aux grottes de glacier qu'ils sont les premiers à avoir explorées. Alors que le glacier Sandy glisse lentement le long du Mont Hood dans l'Oregon, les grottes et tunnels à l'intérieur se transforment chaque année grâce à l'eau chaude venant d'au-dessus d'elles et l'air froid se trouvant en-dessous d'elles. A TEDYouth, Cartaya nous emmène dans ces lieux magiques où la glace brille de bleu et de vert et où les objets pleuvent du plafond.
Designing electronics is generally cumbersome and expensive -- or was, until Leah Buechley and her team at MIT developed tools to treat electronics just like paper and pen. In this talk from TEDYouth 2011, Buechley shows some of her charming designs, like a paper piano you can sketch and then play.
전자장치를 디자인하는 것은 보통 꽤나 번거롭고 비용이 많이 든다 -- 최소한 레아 뷰크리와 그녀의 MIT 팀이 전자장치를 종이와 펜처럼 다룰 수 있는 도구를 개발하기 전까지는 그랬다. TEDYouth 2011 에서 행해진 이 강연에서, 뷰크리는 그녀의 매력적인 법을 보여준다. 사람들은 마치 종이 피아노처럼, 스케치하고 또 그것을 연주하기도 한다.
تصميم الالكترونيات عموما عملية مرهقة ومكلفة - أو كذلك كان، إلى أن قامت ليا بيوكلي وفريقها في معهد ماساتشوستس للتكنولوجيا بتطوير أدوات للتعامل مع الالكترونيات تماما مثل الورق والقلم. في هذا المحادثة من TEDYouth 2011، تظهر بيوكلي بعض تصاميمها الساحرة، مثل البيانو الورقي الذي يمكنك رسمه ومن ثم العزف عليه.
Конструирование электроники — занятие нелёгкое и дорогостоящее, или таковым являлось, пока Лиа Бикли и её команда из MIT не разработали технологии, при помощи которых управляться с электронными платами стало не сложнее, чем с карандашом и бумагой. В своём выступлении на TEDYouth 2011 Лиа демонстрирует, как может звучать нарисованное пианино, как на бумажной странице вспыхивают огни ночного города и другие достижения карандаша и бумаги нового поколения.
Concevoir des circuits électroniques est souvent compliqué et cher -- ou l'était, jusqu'à ce que Leah Buechley et son équipe du M.I.T. développent des outils pour manipuler les circuits électroniques comme nous le ferions avec une feuille et un stylo. Dans cette intervention à TEDYouth 2011, Buechley montre certaines de ses étonnantes créations, comme ce piano papier que nous pouvons dessiner puis utiliser.
Diseñar electrónica generalmente es agotador y caro --o por lo menos lo era, hasta que Leah Buechley y su equipo de MIT crearon herramientas para manipular electrónica como si fuese papel y lápiz. En esta charla de TEDYouth 2011, Buechley muestra algunos de sus diseños innovadores, como un piano de papel que se puede dibujar y luego tocar.
Desenhando eletrônicos é normalmente complicado e caro -- ou era, até Leah Buechley e sua equipe no MIT ( Instituto de Tecnologia de Massachusetts) desenvolveram ferramentas para usar eletrônicos como se fossem papel e caneta. Nessa palestra da TEDYouth 2011, Buechley mostra como alguns de seus desenhos encantadores, como um piano em papel que você pode desenhar e tocar.
