On October 10, 2012 TEDxGoldenGatePark occurred. It took us 1 year of blood, sweat and a couple of tears to put this entire event together and the end result was amazing. One of our speakers, Scott Dinsmore, had an amazing talk that was about living a life of passion by doing work that you love, a fitting talk for our event that was all about pursuing one's passions. Almost 3 years later the world lost Scott to a freak accident on Mount Kilimanjaro this last week. TED.com honored Scott and his historic talk today and put his talk on their homepage of TED.com. We are honored to have been apart of Scott's journey. RIP Scott. Thank you for your amazing talk at our event that day. Your words are now immortalized on TED.

RIP Scott Dinsmore

RIP Scott Dinsmore. The world just lost a kindred spirit. It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I announce the passing of one of our own, Scott Dinsmore. Scott was a last minute addition to TEDxGoldenGatePark in 2012 and had an incredible talk. His talk immediately went viral upon release and has now had almost 3M views in the past 2 plus years. Through his organization Live Your Legend, Scott has helped thousands of people find their passion. Spread his message and say a prayer for him and his family.

Here's a great read! Max Gunawan, one of our incredible speakers at next month's event, is the lead profile in a San Francisco Chronicle article describing how industrial art collectives have helped create and shape the design careers of 3 rising talents.

[...] over time capitalism made the machines prohibitively expensive, and that gave rise to the collectives of today, so now an injection molding machine or a 3-D printer is accessible for the same cost as a daily Starbucks addiction. Students can now go from idea to creation with alarming speed, el...
