TED O’Clock – My Love Letter to Cosplay – August 19, 2016

Posted by on August 23, 2016

With the New Student Orientation madness set to begin on Saturday, August 20, the TED O’clock talk on Friday, August 19, focused on lightening the mood for folks with Adam Savage’s, “My Love Letter to Cosplay.”  Those in attendance shared a laugh as Mr. Savage talked about the many costumes he had made over the years, from a space helmet crafted from an ice cream tub to a No-Face costume he wore at Comic-Con.

While this was a lighthearted talk with little intention of much discussion afterward, a few commented about how appearances, whether in costume or not, do make a difference, and it is always important to put our best foot forward with how we present ourselves.  Not doing so can have unexpected consequences, much like the unexpected responses Mr. Savage received when he handed out gold coins to those he met while dressed as No-Face.

We’ll be back to our regularly scheduled TED O’clocks with the start of the school year, with our first being on Friday, September 2, at 10:00 in Slocum Commons.  If you have a suggestion for a TED talk to watch, please be sure to pass it along.  I am always looking for great suggestions, as well as folks to lead the discussion!

ITS:Always fun, never boring
