... and that's one of the things that I enjoy most
1
37185
3293
這就是其中我最享受這個大會
00:56
about this convention.
2
40478
3249
的原因之一
00:59
It's not so much, as so little as to do with what everything is.
3
43727
7611
這不是很多,但相對於所有事情來說也不是很小
01:07
(Laughter)
4
51338
3390
(笑聲)
01:10
But it is within our self-interest
5
54728
2134
不過這是我們自己的興趣去
01:12
to understand the topography of our lives
6
56862
2716
了解我們生活的地形學
01:15
unto ourselves.
7
59578
2018
在我們身上的影響
01:17
(Laughter)
8
61596
4454
(笑聲)
01:21
The future states
9
66050
1720
未來表明了
01:23
that there is no time
10
67770
1783
除了我們生存中的記憶的感覺會
01:25
other than the collapsation of that sensation
11
69553
3732
崩塌之外,
01:29
of the mirror of the memories in which we are living.
12
73285
2850
就不會再有其他時間了
01:32
(Laughter)
13
76135
3172
(笑聲)
01:35
Common knowledge,
14
79307
1478
非常簡單的常識,
01:36
but important nonetheless.
15
80785
2469
卻是十分重要
01:39
(Laughter)
16
83254
2365
(笑聲)
01:41
As we face fear in these times,
17
85619
2529
當我們遇到恐懼,
01:44
and fear is all around us,
18
88148
2366
而且恐懼就在我們身邊的時候
01:46
we also have anti-fear.
19
90514
2200
我們還會有反恐懼
01:48
It's hard to imagine or measure.
20
92714
2951
這很難想像或測量
01:51
The background radiation is simply too static
21
95665
3119
就是因為背景放射線太過於靜態
01:54
to be able to be seen under the normal spectral analysis.
22
98784
3527
以致於我們不能在正常的光譜分析下看到它
01:58
But we feel as though there are times
23
102311
3482
不過我們感覺到是有些時候
02:01
when a lot of us -- you know what I'm say'n?
24
105793
2477
當我們 - 你知道我說的是什麼吧?
02:04
But -- you know what I'm say'n?
25
108270
1867
不過 - 你知道我在說什麼吧?
02:06
Cuz, like, as a hip hop thing, you know what I'm say'n,
26
110137
2334
因為，就好像，嘻哈這個東西，你知道我在說什麼吧?
02:08
TED be rock'n -- you know what I'm say'n.
27
112471
2515
TED一定很棒 - 你懂我在說什麼吧?
02:10
Like so I wrote a song,
28
114986
2237
因此呢我寫了一首歌
02:13
and I hope you guys dig it.
29
117223
2181
我希望你們會喜歡
02:15
It's a song about people
30
119404
2118
這是一首關於人們
02:17
and sasquatches --
31
121522
2515
和薩斯科奇人的歌
02:19
(Laughter)
32
124037
2634
（笑聲）
02:22
-- and other French science stuff.
33
126671
2838
還有其他法國科學的東西
02:25
That's French science.
34
129509
1399
那是法國科學
02:26
Okay, here we go.

And it's like, you could use as many of those things that you want.
51
261375
3886
這就好像，你可以盡可能的用那些你想要的
04:41
(Applause)
52
265261
5552
（鼓掌）
04:46
And the computer models,
53
270813
1302
這個電腦模式呢
04:48
no matter how many that you have
54
272115
1617
不管你有多少
04:49
and how many people that you use,
55
273732
1517
或者用了多少人
04:51
are never going to be able to arrive at the same conclusions.
56
275249
3232
從來不會有一個統一的結論的
04:54
Four years ago I worked with a few people at the Brookings Institute,
57
278481
4287
四年前我在Brookings學校和幾個人一起工作，
04:58
and I arrived at a conclusion.
58
282768
2118
然後我得到了一個結論
05:00
(Laughter)
59
284886
7458
（笑聲）
05:08
Tomorrow is another day.
60
292344
2289
明天又是另一個一天
05:10
(Laughter)
61
294633
1935
（笑聲）
05:12
Not just any day,
62
296568
2017
不是任何的一天
05:14
but it is a day.
63
298585
2035
但是是一天
05:16
It will get here, there's no question.
64
300620
3120
毫無疑問的，它總是會到來的
05:19
And the important thing to remember
65
303740
2486
應該要記住的重要一點是
05:22
is that this simulation is a good one.
66
306226
3682
這個模擬是好的
05:25
It's believable, it's tactile.
67
309908
2832
它是可相信的，是有形的
05:28
You can reach out -- things are solid.
68
312740
2069
你可以伸手摸得到 - 這些都是有形固體狀的
05:30
You can move objects from one area to another.
69
314809
2349
你可以將東西從這個地方移到那個地方
05:33
You can feel your body.
70
317158
2417
你可以感覺到你的身體
05:35
You can say, "I'd like to go over to this location,"
71
319575
2000
你可以說：“我想去那個地方”
05:37
and you can move this mass of molecules through the air
72
321575
3089
你也可以在你的意願下在空氣之間移動你的身體
05:40
over to another location at will.
73
324664
2831
到另一個地方
05:43
(Laughter)
74
327495
3106
（笑聲）
05:46
That's something you live inside of every day.
75
330601
4368
這才是你每天的生活。
05:50
Now with the allocation and the understanding of
76
334969
3001
現在透過缺乏認知的配置
05:53
the lack of understanding,
77
337970
1300
與理解
05:55
we enter into a new era of science
78
339270
2347
我們進入了科學的新紀元
05:57
in which we feel nothing more
79
341617
2960
在這新紀元中，我們感受不到比
06:00
than so much so as to say
80
344577
2049
在他們與他們自己之間的
06:02
that those within themselves,
81
346626
2250
還要更多的了，
06:04
comporary or non-comporary,
82
348876
2718
現在或者非現在
06:07
will figuratively figure
83
351594
2067
我們會象徵性地去瞭解
06:09
into the folding of our non-understanding
84
353661
3100
我們對網絡上所獲取的訊息
06:12
and our partial understanding
85
356761
1861
與所下的結論的
06:14
to the networks of which we all draw our source
86
358622
3287
不理解與一知半解的
06:17
and conclusions from.
87
361909
1716
疑惑
06:19
(Laughter)
88
363625
1566
（笑聲）
06:21
So, as I say before the last piece,
89
365191
4235
所以，在我呈現最後一個作品之前我想說的是
06:25
feel not as though it is a sphere we live on,
90
369426
3382
感受不要僅限於這是我們生活的一顆星球
06:28
rather an infinite plane which has the illusion
91
372808
4565
而是要想這是一架會給你一種可以引導你回到原點的
06:33
of leading yourself back to the point of origin.
92
377373
3283
錯覺的一架大飛機
06:36
(Laughter)
93
380656
1282
（笑聲）
06:37
Once we understand that all the spheres in the sky
94
381938
1835
一旦我們瞭解到所有在空中的星球
06:39
are just large infinite planes,
95
383773
1873
就好像是一些大飛機一樣
06:41
it will be plain to see. Ha Ha Ha.
96
385646
4415
那就很簡單明瞭了。哈哈哈
06:45
This is my final piece.
97
390061
2090
這是我今天想要呈現最後一個作品
06:48
And just remember
98
392151
1801
所以呢
06:49
everything you are --
99
393952
1498
記住你是什麼
06:51
it's more important to realize
100
395450
2602
比較重要的是要去了解
06:53
the negative space,
101
398052
2436
負面的生活空間
06:56
as music is only the division of space;
102
400488
3249
就好像音樂是五線譜的一部份一樣
06:59
it is the space we are listening to divided as such,
103
403737
3117
它是被五線譜所分割成的一個我們聆聽的東西
07:02
which gives us the information
104
406854
1900
從而給我們這些跟其他東西
07:04
comparison to something other
105
408754
1200
相比較的訊息
07:05
that gives us the idea of what the idea that wants to be transmitted
106
409954
3533
給我們一些想要被傳輸的想法想變成什麼
07:09
wants to be.
107
413487
1733
的一種想法
07:11
So please, without further ado.
108
415220
1368
因此，我就不多說了。
07:12
(Applause)
109
416588
2093
（鼓掌）
07:14
Thank you.
110
418681
1100
謝謝！
07:15
(Applause)
111
419781
4054
（鼓掌）
07:19
This is a fun one.
112
423835
2183
這個是很有意思的
07:21
It goes like this.
113
426018
1234
像這樣
07:23
(Music)
114
427252
25910
（音樂）
07:49
Okay, for the last piece I'd like to do,
115
453162
2111
好吧，最後一個我希望這麼做
07:51
this one goes very similar to this.
116
455273
3002
這個聽起來像是這樣
07:54
I hope you guys recognize it.
117
458275
1397
我希望你們能聽得出來
07:55
Here we go.
118
459672
1362
來囉！
08:00
Okay, that still works. Okay, good.
119
464841
2665
好吧，那也是可行的，很好。
08:03
All right, here we go.
120
467506
1368
好囉，我們開始囉！
08:04

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Reggie Watts - Vocalist, beatboxer, comedianReggie Watts creates unpredictably brilliant performances on the spot using his voice, looping pedals and his giant brain.
Why you should listen
The winner of TED's Full Spectrum auditions, Reggie Watts works on the edge of improv performance -- at a place where you can almost visibly see his brain moving, as he pulls spoken and musical snippets from the sonosphere and blends them into a stream-of-consciousness flow. On screen, Reggie has appeared on The Conan O’Brien Show, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, HBO’s The Yes Men Save the World, Comedy Central’s Michael and Michael Have Issues and PBS’ Electric Company. Last summer, he opened nightly on Conan O'Brien’s sold-out North American “Prohibited From Being Funny on Television” tour.
