I giovani | Thomas Asueni | TEDxSanremo
Mi soffermo spesso sulla leggerezza con la quale viene usata l’espressione “i giovani”.“I giovani non hanno voglia di lavorare…”
“I giovani non sanno cosa significa…”
“I giovani non leggono più…”Ma chi sono questi “giovani”? Sono davvero tutti così?Durante la mia carriera da comico e content creator ho ideato e costruito una moltitudine di
personaggi nei quali gli spettatori potessero riconoscere se stessi, un amico, un parente, un
conoscente…Questi personaggi, protagonisti di molti dei miei video, sono frutto di un’attenta osservazione di questi “giovani” di cui tanto si parla. E una cosa che ho capito è che questi “giovani” non sono tutti uguali, anzi, le diverse sfumature che contraddistinguono ognuno di loro sono spesso il loro punto di forza. In questo talk rifletteremo sull’importanza di cogliere e apprezzare le sfumature nostre e di chi ci circonda. Thomas Asueni è nato il 10 febbraio 2000 a Treviso, ha frequentato l’università a Bologna dove si è laureato nel 2022 in Economics and Finance. Appassionato di sport, è diventato nel 2024 ambasciatore social del running secondo Runners World di cui è stato protagonista nella cover di settembre. A gennaio 2020 carica il primo video su TikTok e da lì inizia il suo percorso sui social con un format che lo ha fatto conoscere in tutta Italia: video ironici sugli stereotipi delle persone. Un format all’avanguardia che ancora genera grandi interazioni. Nel 2021 inizia a sperimentare altri format: pov, sketch comici e, verso fine anno, le prime interviste. Il suo sogno è quello di fare il conduttore, ama stare davanti al pubblico e interagire con le persone. Nel 2022 si trasferisce a Milano dove prendono vita una serie di format iconici, come per esempio “non pensarci troppo”, “60 secondi di verità con” e “capiamo show” con Gioele Arreghini. 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

- 9:05Musical Performance | Jet Black Diamonds | TEDxLjubljanaOriginating from the Vipava Valley, the band Jet Black Diamonds is made up of five young men. They are united by their youthful energy and love for writing original music. Free from the constraints of musical styles, they combine different musical genres, but most often, as they say, they are drawn to modern variants of rock 'n' roll. In 2021, they first made waves with their debut single, “Retro Anorak”. After local success, the song reached a wider Slovenian audience and, as the Song of the Week in August, became one of the most played songs on the national radio station Val 202. A few months later, the Jet Black Diamonds dominated the student band competition Šourok 2021 and released a new single, “Še zadnjič”, followed by a nomination for the Slovenian Music Award “Zlata piščal” for Best New Artist. In 2022, they released their first EP, “Večvredne romance”. From the album, three songs became Songs of the Week. In April 2024, they released their first LP, “Sladki problemi” which they presented at the sold-out Kino Šiška, Ljubljana’s urban cultural centre. They believe this album will help them land among the most influential Slovenian music artists. On the TEDxLjubljana stage they performed their original songs “Retro anorak” and “4 od 10”.
