I'm a medical illustrator,
0

3000
Ja sam medicinski ilustrator,
00:28
and I come from a slightly different point of view.
1
3000
3000
i dolazim iz malo drugačije perspektive.
00:31
I've been watching, since I grew up,
2
6000
2000
Za vrijeme odrastanja, promatrao sam,
00:34
the expressions of truth and beauty in the arts
3
9000
4000
istinu i ljepotu u umjetnosti
00:38
and truth and beauty in the sciences.
4
13000
2000
i istinu i ljepotu u znanosti.
00:40
And while these are both wonderful things in their own right --
5
15000
3000
I dok su oboje čudesne same po sebi --
00:43
they both have very wonderful things going for them --
6
18000
3000
oboje sadrže i svoja čudesa --
00:46
truth and beauty as ideals that can be looked at by the sciences
7
21000
6000
istina i ljepota kao ideali koje možemo promatrati pomoću znanosti
00:52
and by math are almost like the ideal conjoined twins
8
27000
5000
i matematike su kao savršeni Sijamski blizanci
00:57
that a scientist would want to date.
9
32000
1000
s kojima bi znanstvenik želio izlaziti.
01:00
(Laughter)
10
35000
2000
(Smijeh)
01:02
These are expressions of truth as awe-full things,
11
37000
5000
Ovo su izrazi istine kroz čudesa,
01:07
by meaning they are things you can worship.
12
42000
2000
tj. stvari vrijedne štovanja.
01:10
They are ideals that are powerful. They are irreducible.
13
45000
4000
To su ideali koji su moćni, koji su nesvodljivi,
01:15
They are unique. They are useful --
14
50000
2000
koji su jedinstveni, koji su korisni --
01:17
sometimes, often a long time after the fact.
15
52000
2000
ponekad, često tek nakon mnogo vremena.
01:20
And you can actually roll some of the pictures now,
16
55000
2000
Možete pustiti neke od slika sad,
01:22
because I don't want to look at me on the screen.
17
57000
3000
jer ne želim da samo mene gledate na ekranu.
01:26
Truth and beauty are things
18
61000
2000
Istina i ljepota su stvari
01:28
that are often opaque to people who are not in the sciences.
19
63000
4000
koje su često zamućene ljudima izvan znanosti.
01:33
They are things that describe beauty in a way
20
68000
6000
To su stvari koje opisuju ljepotu na način
01:39
that is often only accessible if you understand the language
21
74000
5000
koji je često pristupačan samo ako razumijete jezik
01:44
and the syntax of the person
22
79000
2000
i sintaksu osobe koja proučava
01:46
who studies the subject in which truth and beauty is expressed.
23
81000
3000
temu u kojoj su istina i ljepota izražene.
01:49
If you look at the math, E=mc squared,
24
84000
3000
Ako pogledate matematiku, E=mc na kvadrat,
01:52
if you look at the cosmological constant,
25
87000
3000
ako pogledate kozmološku konstantu,
01:55
where there's an anthropic ideal, where you see that life had to evolve
26
90000
5000
tamo gdje je antropički ideal, gdje vidite da je život morao evoluirati
02:00
from the numbers that describe the universe --
27
95000
3000
iz brojeva koji opisuju svemir --
02:03
these are things that are really difficult to understand.
28
98000
3000
to su stvari koje je stvarno teško razumijeti.
02:06
And what I've tried to do
29
101000
1000
A ono što sam ja pokušao napraviti
02:07
since I had my training as a medical illustrator --
30
102000
2000
otkad sam izučio medicinsku ilustraciju --
02:09
since I was taught animation by my father,
31
104000
3000
otkad me otac koji je bio kipar i moj vizualni mentor,
02:12
who was a sculptor and my visual mentor --
32
107000
3000
naučio animaciji --
02:16
I wanted to figure out a way to help people
33
111000
3000
želio sam pronaći način da pomognem ljudima
02:20
understand truth and beauty in the biological sciences
34
115000
3000
da razumiju istinu i ljepotu u biološkim znanostima
02:24
by using animation, by using pictures, by telling stories
35
119000
3000
pomoću animacije, korištenjem slika i pričanjem priča.
02:28
so that the things that are not necessarily evident to people
36
123000
4000
Tako da se stvari koje nisu nužno ljudima očite
02:32
can be brought forth, and can be taught, and can be understood.
37
127000
4000
mogu prikazati, naučiti i razumijeti.
02:36
Students today are often immersed in an environment
38
131000
5000
Studenti su danas često uronjeni u okolinu
02:42
where what they learn is subjects that have truth and beauty
39
137000
5000
u kojoj uče teme koje imaju istinu i ljepotu
02:47
embedded in them, but the way they're taught is compartmentalized
40
142000
5000
sadržane u sebi, ali način na koje ih uče je segmentiran i
02:52
and it's drawn down to the point where the truth and beauty
41
147000
5000
toliko detaljan da istina i ljepota
02:57
are not always evident.
42
152000
1000
nisu uvijek očite.
02:58
It's almost like that old recipe for chicken soup
43
153000
3000
To je poput onog starog recepta za pileću juhu,
03:01
where you boil the chicken until the flavor is just gone.
44
156000
4000
u kojem kuhate pile sve dok okus ne nestane.
03:06
We don't want to do that to our students.
45
161000
2000
Mi to ne želimo učiniti svojim studentima.
03:08
So we have an opportunity to really open up education.
46
163000
4000
Zato imamo mogućnost stvarno otvoriti obrazovanje.
03:12
And I had a telephone call from Robert Lue at Harvard,
47
167000
3000
Primio sam telefonski poziv od Roberta Luea s Harvarda,
03:15
in the Molecular and Cellular Biology Department,
48
170000
2000
iz Zavoda za molekularnu i staničnu biologiju,
03:17
a couple of years ago. He asked me if my team and I
49
172000
3000
prije nekoliko godina. Pitao me da li bi moj tim i ja
03:21
would be interested and willing to really change
50
176000
4000
bili zainteresirani i voljni stvarno promjeniti
03:25
how medical and scientific education is done at Harvard.
51
180000
3000
način medicinskog i znanstvenog obrazovanja na Harvardu.
03:28
So we embarked on a project that would explore the cell --
52
183000
5000
Stoga, krenuli smo s projektom koji bi istražio stanicu,
03:33
that would explore the truth and beauty inherent
53
188000
3000
koji bi istražio istinu i ljepotu sadržanu
03:36
in molecular and cellular biology
54
191000
2000
u molekularnoj i staničnoj biologiji
03:38
so that students could understand a larger picture
55
193000
3000
tako da bi studenti mogli shvatiti veću sliku
03:41
that they could hang all of these facts on.
56
196000
3000
na koju bi mogli nadovezati sve te činjenice.
03:44
They could have a mental image of the cell
57
199000
3000
Mogli bi imati mentalnu sliku stanice
03:47
as a large, bustling, hugely complicated city
58
202000
7000
kao veliki, živi, strašno složeni grad
03:55
that's occupied by micro-machines.
59
210000
2000
kojeg nastanjuju mikro-strojevi.
03:57
And these micro-machines really are at the heart of life.
60
212000
3000
Ti mikro-strojevi su ti koji su u srcu života.
04:00
These micro-machines,
61
215000
1000
Ti mikro-strojevi,
04:01
which are the envy of nanotechnologists the world over,
62
216000
3000
koji su zavist nanotehnologa iz cijelog svijeta,
04:05
are self-directed, powerful, precise, accurate devices
63
220000
7000
su samo-upravljajući, moćni, precizni, točni uređaji
04:12
that are made out of strings of amino acids.
64
227000
3000
koji su napravljeni od lanaca aminokiselina.
04:15
And these micro-machines power how a cell moves.
65
230000
4000
Ti mikro-strojevi pogone kretanje stanice,
04:19
They power how a cell replicates. They power our hearts.
66
234000
5000
pogone replikaciju stanice, pogone naša srca,
04:24
They power our minds.
67
239000
1000
pogone naše umove.
04:26
And so what we wanted to do was to figure out
68
241000
3000
Zato, ono što smo željeli shvatiti jest
04:30
how we could make this story into an animation
69
245000
2000
kako pretvoriti ovu priču u animaciju
04:33
that would be the centerpiece of BioVisions at Harvard,
70
248000
3000
koja bi bila osnova za BioVisions na Harvardu,
04:37
which is a website that Harvard has
71
252000
4000
koji je web stranica na Harvardu
04:41
for its molecular and cellular biology students
72
256000
2000
namjenjena za studente molekularne i stanične biologije
04:43
that will -- in addition to all the textual information,
73
258000
4000
koja bi -- uz sve tekstualne informacije,
04:48
in addition to all the didactic stuff --
74
263000
1000
uz svu didaktiku --
04:50
put everything together visually, so that these students
75
265000
2000
spojila sve vizualno, tako da bi ovi studenti
04:53
would have an internalized view of what a cell really is
76
268000
4000
imali internu sliku onoga što stanica zapravo jest
04:57
in all of its truth and beauty, and be able to study
77
272000
4000
u svoj svojoj istini i ljepoti, te imali mogućnost učenja
05:01
with this view in mind, so that their imaginations would be sparked,
78
276000
4000
sa tom slikom u glavi, kako bi im potaknuli maštu,
05:05
so that their passions would be sparked
79
280000
2000
kako bi im potaknuli strasti
05:08
and so that they would be able to go on
80
283000
1000
i kako bi oni mogli nastaviti
05:10
and use these visions in their head to make new discoveries
81
285000
4000
i koristiti ove slike u svojim umovima za nova otkrića
05:14
and to be able to find out, really, how life works.
82
289000
3000
i kako bi mogli saznati kako život zapravo radi.
05:17
So we set out by looking at how these molecules are put together.
83
292000
6000
I tako smo započeli sa razmatranjem kako su sve ove molekule spojene.
05:24
We worked with a theme, which is, you've got macrophages
84
299000
5000
Radili smo s temom, koja je u osnovi, imate te makrofage
05:30
that are streaming down a capillary,
85
305000
1000
koji putuju kapilarom,
05:32
and they're touching the surface of the capillary wall,
86
307000
2000
dodiruju površinu kapilarnog zida,
05:35
and they're picking up information from cells
87
310000
2000
dobijaju informacije od stanica
05:37
that are on the capillary wall, and they are given this information
88
312000
4000
koje su na kapilarnom zidu, te informacije im govore
05:41
that there's an inflammation somewhere outside,
89
316000
3000
da postoji upala negdje vani,
05:44
where they can't see and sense.
90
319000
2000
gdje oni ne mogu vidjeti i osjetiti.
05:46
But they get the information that causes them to stop,
91
321000
3000
Ali dobiju informaciju koja uzrokuje da stanu,
05:49
causes them to internalize that they need to make
92
324000
4000
uzrokuju da shvate da moraju djelovati
05:53
all of the various parts that will cause them to change their shape,
93
328000
4000
na svoje pojedine dijelove kako bi promjenili svoj oblik,
05:58
and try to get out of this capillary and find out what's going on.
94
333000
4000
i pokušali izaći iz tih kapilara te shvatili što se događa.
06:03
So these molecular motors -- we had to work
95
338000
2000
Stoga, ovi molekularni motori -- morali smo raditi
06:05
with the Harvard scientists and databank models
96
340000
5000
sa znanstvenicima na Harvardu i podatkovnim modelima
06:11
of the atomically accurate molecules
97
346000
3000
atomski preciznih molekula
06:14
and figure out how they moved, and figure out what they did.
98
349000
3000
i saznati kako se one kreću i što zapravo rade.
06:18
And figure out how to do this in a way
99
353000
2000
I saznati kako to učiniti na način
06:20
that was truthful in that it imparted what was going on,
100
355000
5000
koji bi davao vjernu predodžbu stvarnih događaja,
06:26
but not so truthful that the compact crowding in a cell
101
361000
5000
ali ne tako preciznu predodžbu te kompaktne gužve u stanici
06:31
would prevent the vista from happening.
102
366000
3000
koja bi spriječila stvaranje te mentalne slike.
06:34
And so what I'm going to show you is a three-minute
103
369000
4000
I zato, ono što ću vam pokazati je trominutna,
06:38
Reader's Digest version of the first aspect of this film
104
373000
3000
sažeta verzija prvog dijela filma
06:41
that we produced. It's an ongoing project
105
376000
3000
koji smo napravili. To je projekt koji još traje
06:44
that's going to go another four or five years.
106
379000
2000
i koji će trajati još četiri ili pet godina.
06:47
And I want you to look at this
107
382000
2000
Želim da pogledate ovo
06:49
and see the paths that the cell manufactures --
108
384000
4000
i vidite puteve koje stanica proizvodi --
06:53
these little walking machines, they're called kinesins --
109
388000
3000
mali hodajući strojevi, zovu se kinezini --
06:57
that take these huge loads
110
392000
1000
uzimaju ogromne terete
06:59
that would challenge an ant in relative size.
111
394000
2000
koji bi bili izazov i mravu s obzirom na relativnu veličinu.
07:02
Run the movie, please.
112
397000
3000
Pokrenite film, molim.
07:06
But these machines that power the inside of the cells
113
401000
3000
Ali ovi strojevi koji napajaju unutrašnjost stanice
07:09
are really quite amazing, and they really are the basis of all life
114
404000
4000
su zapravo stvarno zadivljujući i oni su zapravo osnova svog života.
07:13
because all of these machines interact with each other.
115
408000
4000
Zato što svi ti strojevi interaktiraju međusobno.
07:18
They pass information to each other.
116
413000
1000
Prenose informacije jedan drugom,
07:20
They cause different things to happen inside the cell.
117
415000
2000
uzrokuju različite stvari da se dogode u stanici.
07:23
And the cell will actually manufacture the parts that it needs
118
418000
3000
I stanica će zapravo proizvesti one dijelove koje treba
07:26
on the fly, from information
119
421000
2000
u hodu, iz informacija
07:28
that's brought from the nucleus by molecules that read the genes.
120
423000
4000
koje dobiva iz nukleusa od molekula koje čitaju gene.
07:33
No life, from the smallest life to everybody here,
121
428000
4000
Niti jedan oblik života, od najmanjeg pa do svih nas ovdje,
07:38
would be possible without these little micro-machines.
122
433000
2000
ne bi bio moguć bez ovih malih mikro-strojeva.
07:41
In fact, it would really, in the absence of these machines,
123
436000
3000
Zapravo, bez ovih malih strojeva,
07:45
have made the attendance here, Chris, really quite sparse.
124
440000
2000
posjećenost konferencije, Chris, bila bi iznimno mala.
07:47
(Laughter)
125
442000
4000
(Smijeh)
07:51
(Music)
126
446000
12000
(Glazba)
08:03
This is the FedEx delivery guy of the cell.
127
458000
2000
Ovo je poštar dostavljač u stanici:
08:07
This little guy is called the kinesin,
128
462000
1000
ovaj malac se zove kinezin,
08:09
and he pulls a sack that's full of brand new manufactured proteins
129
464000
4000
i on vuče vreću koja je puna novo napravljenih proteina
08:13
to wherever it's needed in the cell --
130
468000
2000
do mjesta gdje su potrebni u stanici --
08:15
whether it's to a membrane, whether it's to an organelle,
131
470000
3000
bilo da se radi o membrani ili organeli,
08:18
whether it's to build something or repair something.
132
473000
2000
bilo da se radi o gradnji nečega novog ili nekog popravka.
08:20
And each of us has about 100,000 of these things
133
475000
4000
I svatko od nas ima oko 100,000 ovih stvari
08:24
running around, right now,
134
479000
1000
trče naokolo, upravo sada,
08:26
inside each one of your 100 trillion cells.
135
481000
3000
u svakoj od naših 100 trilijuna stanica.
08:29
So no matter how lazy you feel,
136
484000
2000
Stoga, bez obzira koliko se lijeni osjećali,
08:32
you're not really intrinsically doing nothing.
137
487000
2000
zapravo uvijek radite nešto.
08:34
(Laughter)
138
489000
4000
(Smijeh)
08:38
So what I want you to do when you go home
139
493000
2000
Stoga, ono što želim da učinite kad dođete doma
08:40
is think about this, and think about how powerful our cells are.
140
495000
3000
jest da razmislite o ovome, i razmislite koliko su naše stanice zapravo moćne,
08:44
And think about some of the things
141
499000
1000
i razmislite o nekim stvarima
08:45
that we're learning about cellular mechanics.
142
500000
4000
koje učimo o staničnoj mehanici.
08:49
Once we figure out all that's going on --
143
504000
3000
Jednom kad shvatimo sve što se događa --
08:52
and believe me, we know almost a percent of what's going on --
144
507000
3000
a vjerujte mi, znamo gotovo jedan posto od svega što se događa --
08:56
once we figure out what's going on,
145
511000
1000
jednom kad to shvatimo,
08:57
we're really going to be able to have a lot of control
146
512000
3000
stvarno ćemo imati znatnu kontrolu
09:00
over what we do with our health,
147
515000
2000
nad svojim zdravljem,
09:02
with what we do with future generations,
148
517000
3000
nad budućim generacijama,
09:05
and how long we're going to live.
149
520000
1000
nad životnim vijekom.
09:07
And hopefully we'll be able to use this
150
522000
2000
I nadam se da ćemo moći koristiti ovo
09:09
to discover more truth, and more beauty.
151
524000

za otkrivanje još istina i još ljepote.

09:26
But it's really quite amazing that these cells, these micro-machines,
153
541000
4000
Ali zapravo je stvarno zadivljujuće da su ove stanice, ti mikro-strojevi,
09:31
are aware enough of what the cell needs that they do their bidding.
154
546000
5000
dovoljno svjesni potreba stanice da bi radili posao za njih.
09:36
They work together. They make the cell do what it needs to do.
155
551000
4000
Rade zajedno; čine stanicu da radi ono što treba raditi.
09:40
And their working together helps our bodies --
156
555000
6000
I njihov zajednički rad pomaže našim tijelima --
09:46
huge entities that they will never see -- function properly.
157
561000
4000
ogromnim jedinkama koje nikad neće vidjeti -- da rade pravilno.
09:51
Enjoy the rest of the show. Thank you.

Uživajte u ostatku konferencije. Hvala.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
David Bolinsky - Medical animatorDavid Bolinsky and his team illustrate scientific and medical concepts with high-drama animation. You've never seen the life of a cell quite like this.
Why you should listen
Medical illustrator and animator David Bolinsky has devoted his career to displaying scientific and medical concepts in a clear, fresh light.
Since the earliest days of computer animation, he knew this art could be a powerful tool for explaining scientific concepts in ways that traditional medical illustration simply couldn't. Now, with XVIVO, the company he co-founded, he works with schools and with medical and scientific firms, turning complex processes into understandable, compelling films.
"The Inner Life of a Cell," highlighted at TED2007, represents the leading edge of medical animation, in both its technical achievement and its focus on compelling, memorable action. Created as part of the BioVision initiative to help explain cellular processes to students at Harvard's Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, the clip has captured the imagination of the press -- and reportedly, of Hollywood.
