Description

Austin likes big numbers and small towns. He has a data dream: that everyone can easily build geometric images to visualize their metrics and, more importantly, their message. Currently, he's collecting local data and turning it into local knowledge in towns throughout the United States and Europe. At the University of Colorado, Austin learned to think thoughts, studying both History and Economics. Currently, he's working towards a diploma in Physical Geography at the London School of Economics. Since graduating from Colorado in 2008, he has been drinking coffee and getting stuff done at ResearchGate in Berlin and Gordon Research in Los Angeles and Italy. Recent side projects include translating start up platforms, such as Bring the Food and Open Hospital, into both English and Spanish. 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)
