They listen and mimic and remix what they like.
5
10000
2000
Mereka mendengar dan meniru dan me-remix apa yang mereka sukai.
00:37
They rock the mic outside my window every morning.
6
12000
2000
Mereka ribut di luar jendelaku tiap pagi.
00:39
I can hear them sing the sounds of the car alarms
7
14000
3000
Aku bisa dengar mereka meniru bunyi alarm mobil
00:42
like they were songs of spring.
8
17000
2000
seakan itu adalah lagu musim semi.
00:44
I mean, if you can talk it, a mockingbird can squawk it.
9
19000
2000
Jadi, kalau kau bisa mengatakannya, seekor mockingbird bisa menirukannya.
00:46
So check it, I'm gonna to catch mockingbirds.
10
21000
2000
Jadi lihat saja, akan kutangkap mockingbird.

23000
3000
Akan kujerat mockingbird di seluruh penjuru negara
00:51

00:54
(Laughter)
13
29000
1000
(Tawa)
00:55
Yeah. And as I drive through a neighborhood,
14
30000
2000
Ya. Dan saat kulewati sebuah lingkungan,
00:57
say, where people got-a-lotta, I'll take a mockingbird I caught
15
32000
3000
katakanlah, tempat orang-orang berpunya, akan kuambil mockingbird yang kutangkap
01:00
in a neighborhood where folks ain't got nada and just let it go, you know.
16
35000
3000
di sebuah lingkungan tempat orang-orang tiada berpunya dan kulepaskannya begitu saja.
01:03
Up goes the bird, out come the words, "Juanito, Juanito,
17
38000
3000
Burungnya terbang ke atas, terdengarlah kata-kata, "Juanito, Juanito,
01:06
vente a comer mi hijo!"
18
41000
2000
mari makan anakku!"
01:08
Oh, I'm going to be the Johnny Appleseed of sound.
19
43000
3000
Oh, aku akan jadi legenda perintis bunyi.
01:11
(Laughter)
20
46000
1000
(Tawa)
01:12
Cruising random city streets, rocking a drop-top Cadillac
21
47000
3000
Menjelajahi jalan-jalan kota semaunya, ugal-ugalan dengan Cadillac terbuka
01:15
with a big backseat, packing like 13 brown paper Walmart bags
22
50000
3000
dengan jok belakang yang luas, memuat 13 kantong kertas coklat Walmart
01:18
full of loaded mockingbirds, and I'll get everybody.
23
53000
3000
yang penuh dengan mockingbird, dan akan kudapatkan semua orang.
01:21
(Laughter)
24

25
57000
2000
Akan kudapatkan si bodoh pembaca berita televisi berkata,
01:24
"We'll be back in a moment with more on the crisis."
26
59000
2000
"Kami akan segera kembali dengan tambahan informasi tentang krisis ini."
01:26

Akan kudapatkan, "Sayang, beri saya panduan acara TV sialan itu."
01:38
I'll get a lonely, little sentence with real error in it,
32
73000
2000
'Akan kudapatkan sebuah kalimat pendek kesepian dengan kesalahan sejati di dalamnya,
01:40
"Yeah, I guess I could come inside, but only for a minute."
33
75000
2000
"Yah, rasanya saya bisa masuk ke dalam, tapi sebentar saja."
01:42
(Laughter)

1000
(Tawa)
01:43

Aloha. Konichiwa. Shalom. Ah-Salam Alaikum.
40
92000
3000
Aloha. Konichiwa. Shalom. Assalamualaikum.
02:00
Everybody means everybody, means everybody here.
41
95000
2000
Semua orang berarti setiap orang, berarti semua orang di sini.
02:02
And so maybe I'll build a gilded cage.
42
97000
2000
Dan mungkin akan kubuat sebuah sangkar emas.
02:04
I'll line the bottom with old notebook pages.
43
99000
2000
akan kulapisi dasarnya dengan halaman-halaman buku catatan lawas.
02:06
Inside it, I will place a mockingbird for --
44
101000
3000
Di dalamnya, akan kutaruh seekor mockingbird untuk --
02:09
short explanation, hippie parents.
45
104000
2000
singkatnya, orangtua hippie.
02:11
(Laughter)
46
106000
1000
(Tawa)
02:12
What does a violin have to do with technology?
47
107000
3000
Apa hubungan sebuah biola dengan teknologi?
02:15
Where in the world is this world heading?
48
110000
2000
Ke manakah arah yang dituju dunia ini?
02:17
On one end, gold bars --
49
112000
3000
Pada salah satu ujungnya, batangan emas --
02:20
on the other, an entire planet.
50
115000
2000
di ujung lainnya, sebuah planet utuh.
02:22
We are 12 billion light years from the edge.
51
117000
3000
Kita berada 12 miliar tahun cahaya dari tepian.
02:25
That's a guess.
52
120000
1000
Itu adalah sebuah perkiraan.
02:26
Space is length and breadth continued indefinitely,
53
121000
3000
Ruang angkasa adalah panjang dan luas yang menerus tanpa batas pasti,
02:29
but you cannot buy a ticket to travel commercially to space in America
54
124000
3000
tetapi kau tidak dapat membeli tiket perjalanan komersial ke ruang angkasa di Amerika
02:32
because countries are beginning to eat like us, live like us and die like us.
55
127000
3000
karena negara-negara mulai makan seperti kita, hidup seperti kita dan mati seperti kita.
02:35
You might wanna avert your gaze, because that
56
130000
2000
Sebaiknya kauhindarkan pandanganmu, karena itu
02:37
is a newt about to regenerate its limb,
57
132000
3000
adalah seekor kadal yang akan menumbuhkan kembali anggota tubuhnya,
02:40
and shaking hands spreads more germs than kissing.
58
135000
3000
dan berjabat tangan menyebarkan lebih banyak kuman daripada berciuman.
02:43
There's about 10 million phage per job.
59
138000
2000
Ada 10 juta virus di tiap peristiwa.
02:45
It's a very strange world inside a nanotube.
60
140000
3000
Sebuah dunia yang sangat aneh dalam sebuah tabung nano.
02:48
Women can talk; black men ski; white men build strong buildings;
61
143000
4000
Wanita dapat berbicara; pria kulit hitam bermain ski; pria kulit putih mendirikan bangunan yang kuat;
02:52
we build strong suns.
62
147000
2000
kita membangun matahari-matahari perkasa.
02:54
The surface of the Earth is absolutely riddled with holes,
63
149000
3000
Permukaan bumi sungguh dipenuhi lembah-lembah,
02:57
and here we are, right in the middle.
64
152000
4000
dan kita di sini, tepat di tengah-tengah.
03:01
(Laughter)
65
156000
1000
(Tawa)
03:02
It is the voice of life that calls us to come and learn.
66
157000
3000
Ini adalah suara kehidupan yang memanggil kita untuk datang dan belajar.
03:05
When all the little mockingbirds fly away,
67
160000
2000
Ketika semua mockingbird kecil terbang menyingkir,
03:07
they're going to sound like the last four days.
68
162000
3000
mereka akan terdengar bagai empat hari terakhir.
03:10
I will get uptown gurus, downtown teachers,
69
165000
3000
Aku akan mendapatkan guru pinggir kota, pengajar pusat kota,
03:13
broke-ass artists and dealers, and Filipino preachers, leaf blowers,
70
168000
3000
seniman dan pendagang yang bangkrut, dan pengkhotbah Filipina, peniup daun,
03:16
bartenders, boob-job doctors, hooligans, garbage men,
71
171000
2000
bartender, dokter payudara, perusuh, tukang sampah,
03:18
your local Congressmen in the spotlight, guys in the overhead helicopters.
72
173000
2000
anggota kongres lokalmu dalam sorotan, orang-orang di helikopter di atas sana.
03:20
Everybody gets heard.
73
175000
2000
Semua orang akan didengar.
03:22
Everybody gets this one, honest mockingbird as a witness.
74
177000
4000
Semua orang mendapat mockingbird jujur satu ini sebagai saksi.
03:26
And I'm on this.
75
181000
2000
Dan aku sedang mengerjakan ini.
03:28
I'm on this 'til the whole thing spreads,
76
183000
2000
Aku sedang mengerjakan ini sampai semuanya menyebar,
03:30
with chat rooms and copycats and moms maybe tucking kids into bed
77
185000
2000
dengan ruang obrolan dan penjiplak dan para ibu mungkin sedang menyelimuti anak-anak di tempat tidur
03:32
singing, "Hush, little baby, don't say a word.
78
187000
3000
menyanyikan, "Diamlah, bayi kecil, jangan ucapkan sepatah kata pun.
03:35
Wait for the man with the mockingbird."
79
190000
3000
Tunggulah sang pria pembawa mockingbird."
03:38
(Laughter)
80
193000
1000
(Tawa)
03:39
Yeah. And then come the news crews, and
81
194000
2000
Ya. Dan kemudian datanglah kru berita, dan
03:41
the man-in-the-street interviews, and the letters to the editor.
82
196000
2000
wawancara orang di jalanan, dan surat kepada penyunting.
03:43
Everybody asking, just who is responsible for this citywide,
83
198000
3000
Semua orang bertanya, siapa sih yang bertanggung jawab untuk seluruh kota ini,
03:46
nationwide mockingbird cacophony, and somebody finally is going to tip
84
201000
3000
hiruk-pikuk mockingbird nasional, dan seseorang akhirnya akan membisikkan
03:49
the City Council of Monterey, California off to me,
85
204000
3000
dewan kota Monterey, California tentang aku,
03:52
and they'll offer me a key to the city.
86
207000
2000
dan mereka akan menawarkanku sebuah kunci kota.
03:54
A gold-plated, oversized key to the city
87
209000
2000
Sebuah kunci ekstra besar berlapis emas pembuka kota
03:56
and that is all I need, 'cause if I get that, I can unlock the air.
88
211000
4000
dan hanya itulah yang kubutuhkan, karena jika kudapatkan itu, aku bisa membuka udara.
04:00
I'll listen for what's missing, and I'll put it there.
89
215000
4000
Akan kudengar yang hilang, dan aku akan meletakkannya di sana.
04:04
Thank you, TED.
90
219000

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Rives - Performance poet, multimedia artistPerformance artist and storyteller Rives has been called "the first 2.0 poet," using images, video and technology to bring his words to life.
Why you should listen
Part poet, part storyteller, part philosopher, Rives is the co-host of TEDActive as well as a frequent TED speaker. On stage, his poems burst in many directions, exposing multiple layers and unexpected treats: childhood memories, grown-up humor, notions of love and lust, of what is lost forever and of what's still out there waiting to unfold. Chimborazo.
A regular on HBO's Def Poetry Jam, Rives also starred alongside model Bar Refaeli in the 2008 Bravo special Ironic Iconic America, touring the United States on a "roller coaster ride through the eye-popping panorama of American pop culture." Flat pages can't contain his storytelling, even when paper is his medium. The pop-up books he creates for children unfold with surprise: The Christmas Pop-Up Present expands to reveal moving parts, hidden areas and miniature booklets inside.
His latest project—the Museum of Four in the Morning—is an ode to a time that may well be part of a global conspiracy. In a good way.
