Sveiki visiem! Esmu Sirīna.
08:58
Hi everyone. I'm Sirena.

Man ir 11 gadi un esmu no Konektikutas.
09:00
I'm 11 years old and from Connecticut.

522000
4000
Īsti nezinu, kāpēc šeit esmu.
09:10
Well, I'm not really sure why I'm here.
5
526000
5000
(Smiekli)
09:15
(Laughter)

Kāds gan tam sakars ar tehnoloģiju,
izklaidi un dizainu?
izklaidi un dizainu?
09:17
I mean, what does this have to do with
7
533000
2000
09:19
technology, entertainment and design?
8
535000
4000
Es savu iPod, mobilo tālruni
un datoru saucu par tehnoloģijām,
un datoru saucu par tehnoloģijām,
09:23
Well, I count my iPod, cellphone and computer as technology
9
539000
4000
09:27
but this has nothing to do with that.
10
543000
4000
bet tam ar to nav nekāda sakara.
Tā nu es par to veicu nelielu pētījumu.
09:31
So I did a little research on it.
11
547000
3000
Lūk, ko es atklāju.
09:34
Well, this is what I found.
12
550000
1000
09:35
Of course, I hope I can memorize it.
13
551000
4000
Protams, ceru, ka atcerēšos.
(Nokrekšķinās)
09:39
The violin is basically made of a wood box
14
555000
2000
Vijoli gatavo no koka korpusa
ar četrām metāla stīgām.
ar četrām metāla stīgām.
09:41
and four main strings.
15
557000
1000
Velkot stīgu, tā vibrē
un rada skaņas vilni,
un rada skaņas vilni,
09:42
By playing the string, the string vibrates
16
558000
1000
09:43
and produces a sound wave.
17
559000
1000
09:44
Sound passes through a piece of wood called a bridge
18
560000
2000
kas nonāk koka gabalā,
ko sauc par tiltiņu,
ko sauc par tiltiņu,
09:46
and goes down to the wood box and gets amplified
19
562000
2000
un tālāk koka korpusā, kur tas
pastiprinās, bet... ļaujiet padomāt.
pastiprinās, bet... ļaujiet padomāt.
09:48
but ... let me think.
20
564000
4000
(Smiekli)
09:52
(Laughter)
21
568000
1000
09:53
Okay. On the other hand
22
569000
2000
Uzliekot pirkstu dažādās vietās uz grifa,
09:55
by placing your finger in a different position on the fingerboard
23
571000
3000
stīgas garums izmainās, un tas
izmaina skaņas viļņa frekvenci.
izmaina skaņas viļņa frekvenci.
09:58
it changes the string length,
24
574000
1000
09:59
that changes the frequency of the sound wave.
25
575000
3000
(Nopūšas) Ak, Dievs!
10:02
Oh, my gosh!
26
578000
2000
(Smiekli)
10:04
(Laughter)
27
580000
1000
Labi, tā tā kā būtu tehnoloģija,
10:05
Okay. This is sort of a technology
28
581000
4000
bet varu to nosaukt par
16. gadsimta tehnoloģiju.
16. gadsimta tehnoloģiju.
10:09
but I can call it a 16th-century technology.
29
585000
5000
Bet visinteresantākais atklājums
10:14
But actually, the most fascinating thing that I found
30
590000
3000
bija, ka pat mūsdienu skaņu sistēmu
vai viļņu pārraides
vai viļņu pārraides
10:17
was that even the audio system
31
593000
3000
10:20
or wave transmission nowadays
32
596000
1000
pamatā joprojām ir tas pats skaņas
radīšanas un pārraidīšanas princips.
radīšanas un pārraidīšanas princips.
10:21
are still basically based on the same principle
33
597000
3000
10:24
of producing and projecting sound.
34
600000
2000
10:26
Isn't that cool?
35
602000
2000
Vai nav vareni?
(Smiekli)
10:28
(Laughter)
36
604000
3000
10:31
(Applause)
37
607000
7000
(Aplausi)
Dizains, dievinu tās dizainu.
10:38
Design -- I love its design.
38
614000
3000
Atceros bērnībā mamma man jautāja:
10:41
I remember when I was little
39
617000
1000
10:42
my mom asked me,
40
618000
1000
10:43
would you like to play the violin or the piano?
41
619000
3000
„Gribi spēlēt vijoli vai klavieres?“
10:46
I looked at that giant monster
42
622000
3000
Es paskatījos uz to milzīgo briesmoni
un pie sevis noteicu:
un pie sevis noteicu:
10:49
and said to myself --
43
625000
1000
„Es visu dienu nenīkšu uz tā ķebļa!“
10:51
I am not going to lock myself on that bench
44
627000
3000
10:54
the whole day.
45
630000
2000
(Smiekli)
10:56
This is small and lightweight.
46
632000
3000
Tā ir maza uz viegla.
Varu to spēlēt stāvus,
sēdus vai staigājot.
sēdus vai staigājot.
10:59
I can play from standing, sitting or walking.
47
635000
2000
Un ziniet, ko?
11:01
And you know what?
48
637000
1000
11:02
The best of all is that if I don't want to practice,
49
638000
5000
Labākais ir tas,
ka ja negribu vingrināties,
ka ja negribu vingrināties,
11:07
I can hide it.
50
643000
2000
(čukstus) varu to paslēpt.
(Smiekli)
11:09
(Laughter)
51
645000
4000
11:13
The violin is very beautiful.
52
649000
2000
Vijole ir ļoti skaista.
Daži to salīdzina ar sievietes formu.
11:15
Some people relate it as the shape of a lady
53
651000
3000
11:18
but, whether you like it or not,
54
654000
2000
Bet patīk tā vai nē, tā ir
palikusi nemainīga vairāk kā 400 gadus,
palikusi nemainīga vairāk kā 400 gadus,
11:20
it's been so for more than 400 years,
55
656000
3000
nevis kā vairums mūsdienu lietu,
kas ātri iziet no modes.
kas ātri iziet no modes.
11:23
unlike modern stuff that easily looks dated.
56
659000
4000
Bet, manuprāt, tā ir ļoti
personīga un neatkārtojama.
personīga un neatkārtojama.
11:27
But I think it's very personal and unique that,
57
663000
2000
11:29
although each violin looks pretty similar,
58
665000
3000
Lai gan vijoles izskatās diezgan vienādas,
nevienas divas vijoles neskan vienādi,
11:32
that no two violins sound the same.
59
668000
3000
pat ne viena un tā paša
izgatavotāja vai modeļa.
izgatavotāja vai modeļa.
11:35
Even from the same maker
60
671000
1000
11:36
or based on the same model.
61
672000
3000
Izklaide, dievinu tās izklaidi.
11:39
Entertainment -- I love the entertainment,
62
675000
3000
Patiesībā, pats instruments
nav ļoti izklaidējošs.
nav ļoti izklaidējošs.
11:43
but actually, the instrument itself
63
679000
3000
11:46
isn't very entertaining.
64
682000
2000
Tikusi pie savas pirmās vijoles
un mēģinot ar to paspēlēties,
un mēģinot ar to paspēlēties,
11:48
I mean, when I first got my violin
65
684000
3000
11:51
and tried to play around, it was
66
687000
1000
man, patiesībā, gāja ļoti slikti,
11:52
actually, really bad because
67
688000
5000
jo tā neskanēja tā, kā biju to
dzirdējusi spēlējam citus bērnus.
dzirdējusi spēlējam citus bērnus.
11:57
it didn't sound like the way I'd heard from other kids --
68
693000
2000
Tā skanēja briesmīgi un čīkstīgi.
11:59
so horrible and so scratchy --
69
695000
3000
Tas nemaz nebija izklaidējoši.
12:02
so it wasn't entertaining at all.
70
698000
3000
Bet manam brālim tas likās ļoti smieklīgi:
12:05
But besides, my brother found this very funny.
71
701000
5000
12:10
Yuk, yuk, yuk.
72
706000
3000
Jak! Jak! Jak!
(Smiekli)
12:13
(Laughter)
73
709000
6000
12:19
A few years later I heard a joke about
74
715000
2000
Dažus gadus vēlāk es dzirdēju joku
par dižāko vijolnieku Jašu Heifecu.
12:21
the greatest violinist, Jascha Heifetz.
75
717000
2000
12:23
After Mr. Heifetz's concert
76
719000
2000
Pēc Heifeca kunga koncerta
pie viņa pienāca kāda dāma un uzslavēja:
12:25
a lady came over and complimented,
77
721000
2000
„Ak, Heifeca kungs, jūsu vijole
šovakar skanēja tik skaisti!“
šovakar skanēja tik skaisti!“
12:27
"Oh, Mr. Heifetz, your violin sounded so great tonight."
78
723000
4000
Un Haifeca kungs bija ļoti asprātīgs.
12:31
And Mr. Heifetz was a very cool person,
79
727000
2000
12:33
so he picked up his violin and said,
80
729000
2000
Viņš paņēma vijoli un teica:
„Interesanti, es neko nedzirdu.“
12:35
"Funny, I don't hear anything."
81
731000
2000
(Smiekli)
12:37
(Laughter)
82
733000
3000
Tagad kā mūziķe saprotu,
12:40
And now, I realize that as the musician,
83
736000
2000
12:42
we human beings, we have a great mind,
84
738000
4000
ka mēs, cilvēki, ar savu lielisko prātu,
māksliniecisko sirdi un prasmēm
māksliniecisko sirdi un prasmēm
12:46
artistic heart and skill
85
742000
2000
varam izmainīt šo 16. gadsimta
tehnoloģiju un leģendāro dizainu
tehnoloģiju un leģendāro dizainu
12:48
that can change the 16th-century technology
86

12:51
and a legendary design
87
747000
2000
brīnišķīgai izklaidei.
12:53
to a wonderful entertainment.
88
749000
2000
Tagad zinu, kādēļ te esmu.
12:55
Now, I know why I'm here.

16:43
At first I thought I was just going to be here to perform,
92
979000
4000
Sākumā es domāju,
ka šeit tikai uzstāšos,
ka šeit tikai uzstāšos,
bet negaidīti uzzināju
un izbaudīju daudz vairāk.
un izbaudīju daudz vairāk.
16:47
but unexpectedly, I learned and enjoyed much more.
93
983000
4000
16:52
But ... although some of them were quite up there for me.
94
988000
6000
Bet... kaut arī dažas no runām
bija man visai sarežģītas.
bija man visai sarežģītas.
(Smiekli)
16:58
(Laughter)
95
994000
4000
Piemēram, par daudzdimensijām.
17:02
Like the multi-dimension stuff.
96
998000
4000
Godīgi sakot, es būtu priecīga,
17:06
I mean, honestly, I'd be happy enough
97
1002000
2000
ja varētu skolā līdz galam saprast
divas dimensijas.
divas dimensijas.
17:08
if I can actually get my two dimension correct in school.
98
1004000
3000
17:11

99

4000
(Smiekli)
Bet, īstenībā, manuprāt,
visiespaidīgākais ir
visiespaidīgākais ir
17:15
But actually, the most impressive thing to me
100
1011000
3000
17:18
is that ... well, actually,
101
1014000
1000
– patiesībā, gribētu to izdarīt
visu bērnu vārdā –
visu bērnu vārdā –
17:19
I would also like to stand this for all children
102
1015000
4000
pateikt paldies visiem pieaugušajiem,
ka viņi par mums tā rūpējas
ka viņi par mums tā rūpējas
17:23
is to say, thank you, to all adults
103
1019000
2000
17:25
for actually caring for us a lot
104

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Sirena Huang - ViolinistSirena Huang started taking violin lessons at age 4 and made her professional solo debut at 9 with the Taiwan Symphony Orchestra. She has won top prizes in numerous international competitions, delighting audiences worldwide with her virtuosity and charm.
Why you should listen
Only 11 years old when she performed at TED, Sirena Huang is still technically a child. But as anyone who sees her perform can attest, she has a musician's soul that transcends her years. "Her musical imagination is boundless," said Juilliard dean Stephen Clapp, who described her as "a musical artist with qualities of maturity far beyond her age."
What's most striking in her performance style is the way she combines technical ability with emotional force and nuance. Her fiercely virtuoso performances are profoundly moving, even via podcast. "Amazed," "delighted" and "spellbound" are the words bloggers often use after watching her play. She has won numerous awards for her brilliant performances worldwide, and has played for the likes of French president Nicolas Sarkozy, King Abdullah II of Jordan, and the Dalai Lama.
