How long does it take to become young again: Vincent Cespedes at TEDx Mines Nancy

Vincent Cespedes is a French philosopher and essay writter. He has resigned his teaching job in order to turn himself entirely to writing. As a real jack of all trades, open to the world, he writes contemporary music and paintings. As a columnist on the radio and on TV, he is one of the main French philosophers according to several newspapers. He talks about youth feeling in a talk where he assumes that this feeling is not inherent to youth. Then, the actual question is not "How to stay young" but rather "How to become young again" and this comes necessarily through irreverence, friendship and philosophy.

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)
