Ra Paulette creates cathedral-like ‘eighth wonder of the world’ scuptural caves using nothing but hand tools. Working in the malleable sandstone cliffs of Northern New Mexico his creations rival the work of the great earth artists – Goldsworthy, Heiser, Smithson. But Ra’s work has gone unrecognized. Patrons who commission caves often cut him off due to artistic differences or lack of funds, leaving Ra struggling. Following his passion has cost him almost everything. Undaunted, at age 65, he’s decided to pursue his 10-year magnum opus on public land, without permission, working for no one but himself.

What does the liver do? – Emma Bryce
Posted in: Animation
View full lesson: http://ed.ted.com/lessons/what-does-the-liver-do-emma-bryce
There’s a factory inside you that weighs about 1.4 kilograms and runs for 24 hours a day. It’s your liver: the heaviest organ in your body, which simultaneously acts as a storehouse, a manufacturing hub, and a processing plant. Emma Bryce gives a crash course on the liver and how it helps keep us alive.

Posted in: Animation
http://www.ted.com Artist Neil Harbisson was born completely color blind, but these days a device attached to his head turns color into audible frequencies. Instead of seeing a world in grayscale, Harbisson can hear a symphony of color — and yes, even listen to faces and paintings.
