For 3-D designer Hirofumi Seo, the drab, flat diagrams of science are things of the past. Seo's goal is to clarify and simplify even the most complex of ideas using 3-D computer graphics, bringing science of all kinds to brilliant, wonderful life.

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)
