ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Apollo Robbins - Gentleman thief
Apollo Robbins will take the phone from your pocket and the ring off your finger, then hand them back to you and (maybe) show you how he did it.

Why you should listen

Pickpocketing is a triumph of craft: a distracting touch with one hand, while the other hand gets to work, and the next thing you know ... where's my wallet? Apollo Robbins is a modern master of picking pockets, possessor of a subtle understanding of human attention, a taste for classic crime, and something he calls "grift sense" -- which, as he told the New Yorker , is “stepping outside yourself and seeing through the other person’s eyes, thinking through the other person’s mind, but it’s happening on a subconscious level.”
 
Robbins makes a living as an entertainer, speaker and television personality, and he also is the founder of Whizmob Inc., a collective of misdirection experts -- including reformed criminals -- that schools military and law enforcement leaders in fraud and scam tactics. Robbins has also collaborated with academics in his quest to understand how awareness and attention can be manipulated. He's co-author of a 2011 paper that explores something he noticed in his countless hours of practice: people's eyes are more easily misdirected to follow a curve than a straight line.

28
71943

još uvek imate sat na početnom ekranu.
01:25
So, withoutбез looking at your phoneтелефон, what time was it?

40
104046
2620
Ko je bio u pravu neka podigne ruku.
01:58
It's interestingзанимљиво, isn't it? Some of us are a little bitмало
41
106666
2219
Zanimljivo je, zar ne?
Neki od nas
02:00
more perceptiveintuitivna than othersдруги. It seemsИзгледа that way.
42
108885
2003
malo bolje zapažaju od drugih.
Tako izgleda.
02:02
But I have a differentразличит theoryтеорија about that, that modelмодел of attentionпажњу.
43
110888
3014
Ali ja imam drugačiju teoriju
o tom modelu pažnje.
02:05
They have fancyфанци modelsмодели of attentionпажњу, Posner'sPosner's trinitytrojstvo modelмодел of attentionпажњу.
44
113902
3712
Postoje moderne teorije pažnje,
Poznerov trojni model.
02:09
For me, I like to think of it very simpleједноставно, like a surveillanceнадзор systemсистем.
45
117614
3187
Ja volim da to posmatram jednostavno,
kao sistem za nadgledanje.
02:12
It's kindкинд of like you have all these fancyфанци sensorsсензори,
46
120801
2962
To je kao da imate
sve te moderne senzore,
02:15
and insideу your brainмозак is a little securityсигурност guardстражар.
47
123763
2253
a u vašem mozgu je
mali radnik obezbeđenja.
02:18
For me, I like to call him FrankFrank.
48
126016
2266
Ja volim da ga zovem Frenk.
02:20
So FrankFrank is sittingседење at a deskрадни сто.
49
128282
2230
Frenk sedi za stolom.
02:22
He's got all sortsсортс of coolхладан informationинформације in frontфронт of him,
50
130512
2218
Ima sve vrste dobrih informacija
pred sobom,
02:24
high-techвисока технологија equipmentопрема, he's got camerasкамере,
51
132730
2019
visoko tehnološku opremu, kamere,
02:26
he's got a little phoneтелефон that he can pickпицк up, listen to the earsуши,
52
134749
3130
mali telefon na koji može da se javi,
da čuje uši,
02:29
all these sensesчула, all these perceptionsперцепције.
53
137879
2475
sva ta čula, sva ta opažanja.
02:32
But attentionпажњу is what steersBikovi your perceptionsперцепције,
54
140354
2569
Ali pažnja je ono što upravlja
vašim opažajima
02:34
is what controlsконтроле your realityреалност. It's the gatewayпролаз to the mindум.
55
142923
3653
i kontroliše vašu realnost.
Ona je ulazna kapija u um.
02:38
If you don't attendprisustvuju to something, you can't be awareсвесна of it.
56
146576
2835
Ako ne obratite pažnju na nešto,
ne možete biti svesni toga.
02:41
But ironicallyиронично, you can attendprisustvuju to something withoutбез beingбиће awareсвесна of it.
57
149411
3511
Ali ironično, možete obratiti pažnju na nešto,
a da ne budete svesni toga.
02:44
That's why there's the cocktailкоктел effectефекат:
58
152922
1487
Zbog toga postoji efekat koktela:
02:46
When you're in a partyжурка, you're havingимати conversationsразговоре with someoneнеко,
59
154409
2494
Kad ste na žurci, razgovarate s nekim
02:48
and yetјош увек you can recognizeпрепознати your nameиме
60
156903
1431
a ipak možete da prepoznate svoje ime,
02:50
and you didn't even realizeсхватите you were listeningслушање to that.
61
158334
2581
a da niste uopšte svesni
da ste to slušali.
02:52
Now, for my jobпосао, I have to playигра with techniquesтехнике to exploitексплоатисати this,
62
160915
2943
U mom poslu moram da se igram tehnikama
da iskoristim ovo,
02:55
to playигра with your attentionпажњу as a limitedограничен resourceресурс.
63
163858
3061
da se igram sa vašom pažnjom
kao ograničenim resursom.
02:58
So if I could controlконтрола how you spendпотрошити your attentionпажњу,
64
166919
3135
Ako bih mogao da kontrolišem
kako koristite vašu pažnju,
03:02
if I could maybe stealукради your attentionпажњу throughкроз a distractionдистрацтион.
65
170054
3033
ako bih mogao da ukradem vašu pažnju
kroz njeno odvlačenje.
03:05
Now, insteadуместо тога of doing it like misdirectionOdvlaиenjem paћnje
66
173087
2784
Umesto da je pogrešno usmeravam
03:07
and throwingбацање it off to the sideстрана,
67
175871
1452
i odvlačim na stranu,
03:09
insteadуместо тога, what I chooseизаберите to focusфокусирати on is FrankFrank,
68
177323
2580
ja biram da se fokusiram na Frenka,
03:11
to be ableу могуцности to playигра with the FrankFrank insideу your headглава,
69
179903
2600
da bih mogao da se igram sa Frenkom
u vašoj glavi,
03:14
your little securityсигурност guardстражар,
70
182503
940
s vašim malim radnikom obezbeđenja
03:15
and get you, insteadуместо тога of focusingфокусирање on your externalекстерно sensesчула,
71
183443
3037
i nateram vas da se fokusirate na sekund
na svoja unutrašnja čula
03:18
just to go internalинтерни for a secondдруго.
72
186480
2885
umesto na spoljašnja.
03:21
So if I askпитати you to accessприступ a memoryмеморија, like, what is that?
73
189365
3210
I ako vas pitam da pristupite memoriji,
kao na primer pitanjima: šta je to?
03:24
What just happenedдесило? Do you have a walletnovčanik?
74
192575
1612
Šta se desilo? Imate li novčanik?
03:26
Do you have an AmericanAmerikanac ExpressEkspres in your walletnovčanik?
75
194187
1891
Da li imate Amerikan ekspres karticu
u novčaniku?
03:28
And when I do that, your FrankFrank turnsокреће се around.
76
196078
3772
Kad to uradim, vaš Frenk se okreće.
03:31
He accessespristupa the fileфиле. He has to rewindPremotaj unazad the tapeтрака.
77
199850
2255
Pristupa podacima. Mora da vrati traku.
03:34
And what's interestingзанимљиво is, he can't rewindPremotaj unazad the tapeтрака
78
202105
2163
I ono što je interesantno je to
da on ne može da vrati traku
03:36
at the sameисти time that he's tryingпокушавајући to processпроцес newново dataподаци.
79
204268
2930
u isto vreme dok pokušava
da obradi nove podatke.
03:39
Now, I mean, this soundsзвуци like a good theoryтеорија,
80
207198
1355
Ovo zvuči kao dobra teorija
03:40
but I could talk for a long time and tell you lots of things,
81
208553
2718
ali mogu da pričam dugo i
da vam kažem puno stvari
03:43
and they mayможе be trueистина, a portionдео of them,
82
211271
1986
i one mogu da budu tačne, deo njih,
03:45
but I think it's better if I triedПокушали to showсхов that to you here liveживи.
83
213257
2730
ali mislim da je bolje ako probam
da vam to pokažem ovde uživo.
03:47
So if I come down, I'm going to do a little bitмало of shoppingшопинг.
84

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Apollo Robbins - Gentleman thief
Apollo Robbins will take the phone from your pocket and the ring off your finger, then hand them back to you and (maybe) show you how he did it.

Why you should listen

Pickpocketing is a triumph of craft: a distracting touch with one hand, while the other hand gets to work, and the next thing you know ... where's my wallet? Apollo Robbins is a modern master of picking pockets, possessor of a subtle understanding of human attention, a taste for classic crime, and something he calls "grift sense" -- which, as he told the New Yorker , is “stepping outside yourself and seeing through the other person’s eyes, thinking through the other person’s mind, but it’s happening on a subconscious level.”
 
Robbins makes a living as an entertainer, speaker and television personality, and he also is the founder of Whizmob Inc., a collective of misdirection experts -- including reformed criminals -- that schools military and law enforcement leaders in fraud and scam tactics. Robbins has also collaborated with academics in his quest to understand how awareness and attention can be manipulated. He's co-author of a 2011 paper that explores something he noticed in his countless hours of practice: people's eyes are more easily misdirected to follow a curve than a straight line.
