This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Objects and experiences populate our lives, and yet the intricate life stories of these objects are hidden from the eyes of their present user. As a 'visual storyteller', information designer and public artist, Arlene works to make 'background-stories' visible.


Fulbright from the US to The Netherlands 2004, Information Designer, Background Stories and Minneapolis College of Art and Design. As a visual storyteller and public artist, Arlene helps individuals connect emotionally to the specific social and ecological-sustainability impacts of their everyday actions. Visual narrative offers opportunities to showcase social and environmental issues on a human level.


About TEDx, x = independently organized event 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)
