- 16:10Oser réenchanter l'économie ! | Aurélie Piet | TEDxBordeauxEt si vous osiez imaginer qu'une autre voie est possible et déjà là…et que le malaise que vous pouvez ressentir s’explique par le fait que vous vivez actuellement sur deux plaques tectoniques qui s’entrechoquent. La vieille plaque, celle de l’ancien monde qui est à bout de souffle, qui se dégrade vers plus de violence, de mépris, de peurs et sur laquelle beaucoup d’individus sont désorientés et en quête de sens. Et la nouvelle plaque, post-matérialiste, portée par 2 milliards de citoyennes (ns), qui réalisent, en silence, des millions de révolutions tranquilles. Soit une force colossale qui s'ignore créant les bases d’une nouvelle société, d'une nouvelle économie… Aurélie PIET, Économiste, enseignante, chercheuse indépendante, auteure et conférencière. Elle enseigne à l’École Nationale Supérieure des Arts et Métiers et à Sciences Po Bordeaux. Elle est l’auteure de « Quand l’homo economicus saute à l’élastique…sans élastique » (Plon) et de « 2 milliards de Réenchanteurs, le manifeste des acteurs du changement » (Actes Sud).

- 20:09Libérer le regard... | Stéphane Ortega | TEDxBordeauxEt si nous apprenions enfin à libérer notre regard afin qu’il se pose autrement, différemment – dans l’émerveillement ? Alors nous pourrions peut-être envisager de prendre de sages décisions pour penser le Monde de demain... Stéphane Ortega est de ces êtres qui posent leur regard loin des préoccupations matérielles de la société. Vivre, simplement c’est suffisant.Depuis le début des années 90 les abeilles lui tiennent compagnie. Cela a ouvert des territoires jusqu'alors inconnus. Dès lors, il ne cesse d'arpenter les sentiers du vivant. Questionner ce qui nourrit le corps et l'âme.Fin 2014, suite à des études artistiques, il compose une œuvre Écriture Blanche orchestrant cent cinquante deux installations à la surface de la ville de Bordeaux et son agglomération. À l'initiative de la Bibliothèque de Mériadeck pour la journée internationale du handicap, ce travail de sensibilisation fédéra cent dix partenaires culturels. Pour lui, « Être différent, c'est être comme tout le monde. »En 2018, il s'isole en forêt, repensant son habitat, son mode de vie et poursuit un travail de recherche personnel sur l'alimentation.À travers l’écriture et la transmission, il nous invite aujourd’hui à trouver une place dans la poésie de l’existence.
