Session
Taking our little ideas for a walk.
Three years ago, while standing in a field during a festival I had a little idea. Instead of quickly moving on to other thoughts as usual, I decided to take the idea seriously. A few months later, with the help of some great people and a 400 children in my home town, the idea was made real. I put it on the internet and TV cameras came to visit. Then I was invited to speak at the UN about it and now it's heading to space.
This is a talk about acting on the little ideas we have, taking the bonkers thoughts seriously and pushing things as far as you can.
