Space and Place - Art As a Transformative Experience: Duane Hoover at TEDxTexasTechUniversity

Duane discusses an experience about experiences. Using film footage and photos from the 2013 Burning Man event, Duane attempts to educate his audience on how art expression can create a transformative personal experience through its consumption. His many years of involvement with the Burning Man project serve as a backdrop for his explanation of how artists can create a "space" within their artwork with the intent that participants transform that "space" into a "place" by imbuing it with purpose and personalized meaning.

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)
