Reggie Watts at TEDxBerlin

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)

I love how he openly makes a mockery of the entire TED concept, AND THEY KEEP INVITING HIM BACK.

[atrijitdas]

I don't even laugh when watching Reggie anymore. I just admire him.

[MakaveliMarcel]

Every time I partake of some Reggie Watts I feel my creativity has taken a rise and I feel like exploring again.

[dustinmartin]

i can just imagine someone accidentally walking in on this talk and being like what the fuck

[jamesblunt]

30% music, 40% comedy, 50% wisdom and 100% genius.



That's about 300% Reggie Watts for you!

[rocker]

Let's all stop for a second and recognize the danfnoodle engineers and their hardwork

[streetDAOC]

It's like he's making fun of.. Everything.

[theroadless]

Reggie Watts is a genius. This type of creativity and freedom of expression has to be the most liberating feeling.

[famouscoozie]

No one is better at taking the piss out of pretentiousness. Haha. Reggie is king.

[calvinstaropoli]

I love when he's doing a song and then he's like "okay this is getting weird" and then he just abruptly ends it and moves right on

[NoyzBot]

I have no idea what architecture means anymore.

Reggie gives us glimpses of ourselves by remixing human communication. It's like he can play jazz using things we say and do instead of musical notes. But he can also do it in a musical context, using musical traditions and tropes.

[CharlieKrivda]

I always love rediscovering reggie. He reminds me so much of myself, but instead hes funny and talented.

[samchamplin]

i’ve been struggling lately with negative self talk and imposter syndrome. reggie’s videos always remind me being myself is all i need to be doing

[shadoxir]

The first 7 minutes was me during my class presentation.
I was aware of what I needed to speak on, but not the substance on which I needed to speak on.
So I went on.

[michaelriojas]

me when I didn't take up enough time in my presentation

[Riddla]

I too have fallen down the Reggie Watts rabbit hole and I can pretty definitively say... this is the most sense he's ever made on stage. What a legend.

[ninatandon]

was lucky enough to have been there -- and it's too bad you can't year us roaring with laughter :(

[TheDavidCoppafeel]

He wins, simply for the fact that we are all debating the implied or intended message within his act.  His niche is his genre variety and intelligent freestyles.  I don't believe its a straight forward as the messages we think we find in his work.  I'm sure some are correct, others; he's just taking us on a ride...and has no idea himself where it will end.  And I know for sure he enjoys reading our comments, to see the different reactions and ideas we take from it all.  I love this guy; he's extremely talented and has a way of just pulling you into a trance, then creating a vision for you, followed by brief moments of insanity and laughter.  Its absolutely great! The accents, character portrayals and  "1 man band" songs are incredible.  Such a diverse range of art in every session.  He's really good at "stream of consciousness" expression. Pulling from his own subconscious thoughts, yet making you feel like your own thoughts relate to them. He's got so much experience with letting himself go, and running with freestyle accidents...turning them into part of a complete, entertainment experience.

this is what happens when you become too intelligent :/
