Is it ever truly silent? In this TEDx talk, Guy delves into the meaning of silence and its power and encourages us to seek it in our own lives. Pianist Guy Livingston has performed internationally from Tbilisi to Lincoln Center. His one-man-show performance projects have been featured in Sports Illustrated, The New York Times, Le Monde, Gramophone, The Wall Street Journal, and BBC Magazine. He designed a musical instrument that is currently orbiting earth on the International Space Station.
Livingston has produced prize-winning radio documentaries for Australian Broadcasting and Irish RTé Radio, and hosts “The Bug”, a podcast which is broadcast from a former embassy in The Hague.
He has lectured at Princeton University, Harvard University, and the European Space Agency. Livingston holds degrees with honors from Yale University, the New England Conservatory of Music, and the Royal Conservatory of the Netherlands. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
