Elizabeth Gilbert: A new way to think about creativity - Video

Thu, 04 Feb 2010 15:58
Elizabeth Gilbert is a stunner. She is a best selling author, who in my humble opinion is not only damn fine on the eye, but is also a wonderfully wise human being. Her best seller was titled "Eat, Pray, Love", check out this video of her delivering a 19 minute talk at TED Talks. Elizabeth speaks about the creative process essentially and gives some great bits of information such as the fact that the Spanish word 'ole', which was used for bullfighting etc, comes from the Moors when they invaded Spain. They used the word Allah meaning God. This would be shouted out when a dancer or a musician went off into some astounding improvisational burst that was deemed to be of God! For example, they were possessed by god and expressed it in their performance, so a bullfighter did the same, thus 'Ole'. Watch Elizabeth's talk, TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design and features a series a talks by incredible people doing incredible things, get into the TED site and play around you will get lost wanting to listen to more and more of the talks.
