Patricia Ryan: Don’t insist on English!
At TEDxDubai, longtime English teacher Patricia Ryan asks a provocative question: Is the world’s focus on English preventing the spread of great ideas in other languages? (For instance: what if Einstein had to pass the TOEFL?) It’s a passionate defense of translating and sharing ideas.
If you enjoy robots, specifically robot dogs and geek out over Star Wars and well, have a heart then this video will make you smile.
This video is the brainchild of Patrick Boivin. A French autodidact (self taught) director. In addition to writing, directing and editing his films, Patrick, on top of all that also worked on the lighting, operated the camera and the animation and special effects. And if that wasn’t enough, he also sometimes contributed the sound and music. Pretty impressive.
Patrick started out by drawing comic books 15 years ago, and quickly discovered that it was faster to tell a story with a video. He then gradually became a filmmaker.
Enjoy!
