i magija.
00:16
I work in what most people think
2
4941
2144
Radim nešto za šta većina ljudi misli
00:19
are two distinct fields,
3
7085
2438
da su dve odvojene struke,
00:21
but I believe they are the same.
4
9523
3071
ali ja verujem da su iste.
00:24
I am both a magician and
5
12594
1976
Ja sam i mađioničar
00:26
a New York Times crossword puzzle constructor,
6
14570
3836
i pravim ukrštene reči za Njujork tajms,
00:30
which basically means I've taken
7
18406
1364
što jednostavno znači da sam uzeo
00:31
the world's two nerdiest hobbies
8
19770
1622
dva najviše štreberska hobija na svetu
00:33
and combined them into one career.
9
21392
2928
i iskombinovao ih u jednu karijeru.
Verujem da su magija i mozgalice isto
00:36
And I believe that magic and puzzles are the same
10
24320
3123
zato što su obe ključ
00:39
because they both key into one of
11
27443
1926
za jedan od najvažnijih ljudskih nagona,
00:41
the most important human drives:
12
29379
2651
nagona da se nađe rešenje.
00:44
the urge to solve.
13
32030
2086
00:46
Human beings are wired to solve,
14
34116
3133
Ljudi su stvoreni da rešavaju stvari,
00:49
to make order out of chaos.
15
37249
3004
da prave red od haosa.
00:52
It's certainly true for me.
16
40253
1507
Sigurno je tačno za mene.
00:53
I've been solving my whole life.
17
41760
1839
Rešavao sam celog života.
00:55
High school consisted of epic
Scrabble matches in the cafeteria
Scrabble matches in the cafeteria
18
43599
4304
Srednja škola se sastojala
od epskih duela u igri „Nađi reč",
u kantini
u kantini
i nerazgovaranja sa devojčicama,
00:59
and not really talking to girls,
19
47903
1709
01:01
and then at about that time
20
49612
1823
a onda u otprilike to vreme
01:03
I started learning magic tricks
21
51435
1695
počeo sam da učim magične trikove
i sigurno da ne razgovaram sa devojčicama.
01:05
and definitely not talking to girls.
22
53130
2467
Ništa nije kao započinjanje razgovora sa:
01:07
There's nothing like starting a conversation with,
23
55597
2047
„Hej, da li si znala
01:09
"Hey, did you know that 'prestidigitation' is worth
24
57644
2556
da je reč "opsenarstvo"
01:12
20 points in Scrabble?"
25
60200
3024
vredna 20 poena u igri "Nađi reč?"
01:15
But back then, I noticed an intersection
26
63224
2787
Ali tada, primetio sam ukrštanje
01:18
between puzzles and illusion.
27
66011
2725
između mozgalica i iluzije.
01:20
When you do the crossword puzzle
28
68736
1946
Kada rešavate ukrštenicu
ili gledate mađioničarsku predstavu,
01:22
or when you watch a magic show,
29
70682
1946
01:24
you become a solver,
30
72628
2252
postajete rešavač
01:26
and your goal is to try to find the order in the chaos,
31
74880
3778
i vaš cilj je da pokušate
da nađete red u haosu,
01:30
the chaos of, say, a black-and-white puzzle grid,
32
78658
3240
u haosu, na primer,
crno-belih puzli,
torbe sa pomešanim
pločicama za "Nađi reč"
pločicama za "Nađi reč"
01:33
a mixed-up bag of Scrabble tiles,
33
81898
2144
01:36
or a shuffled pack of playing cards.
34
84042
2808
ili špilu izmešanih karata.
01:38
And today, as a cruciverbalist —
35
86850
3014
Danas, kao neko ko je preokupiran -
01:41
23 points —
36
89864
1586
23 poena -
01:43
and an illusion designer, I create that chaos.
37
91450
3757
i dizajner iluzija, ja pravim taj haos.
01:47
I test your ability to solve.
38
95207
3345
Ja testiram vašu sposobnost da rešavate.
01:50
Now, it turns out research tells us
39
98552
2410
Ispostavilo se
da nam istraživanja pokazuju
da nam istraživanja pokazuju
01:52
that solving is as primal as eating and sleeping.
40
100962
3998
da je rešavanje osnovna potreba
koliko i jedenje i spavanje.
01:56
From birth, we are wired to solve.
41
104960
3735
Od rođenja, stvoreni smo da rešavamo.
U jednom ispitivanju
na Univerzitetu u Kaliforniji,
na Univerzitetu u Kaliforniji,
02:00
In one UCLA study, newborns still in the hospital
42
108695
3837
novorođenčadima koja su još uvek u bolnici
02:04
were shown patterns, patterns like this:
43
112532
2688
pokazivani su ovakvi šabloni:
02:07
circle, cross, circle, cross.
44
115220
3611
krug, iks, krug, iks.
02:10
And then the pattern was changed: triangle, square.
45
118831
4319
Onda se šablon promenio:
trougao, kvadrat.
trougao, kvadrat.
Praćenjem pogleda novorođenčadi,
02:15
And by tracking an infant's gaze,
46
123150
2656
02:17
we know that newborns as young as a day old
47
125806
3304
znamo da novorođenčad stara samo 1 dan
02:21
can notice and respond to disruptions in order.
48
129110
2612
primećuju i odgovaraju
na poremećaje u redu.
na poremećaje u redu.
To je izuzetno.
02:23
It's remarkable.
49
131722
1418
Tako da nagon za rešavanjem
ujedinjuje sve nas,
ujedinjuje sve nas,
02:25
So from infancy through old age,
50
133140
2598
02:27
the urge to solve unites us all,
51
135738
2372
od ranog detinjstva do starosti,
02:30
and I even found this photo on Instagram
52
138110
2640
a čak sam pronašao ovu sliku na Instagramu
02:32
of pop star Katy Perry solving a crossword puzzle
53
140750
3154
na kojoj pop zvezda Keti Peri
rešava ukrštene reči uz jutarnju kafu.
02:35
with her morning coffee.
54
143904
2226
02:38
Like.
55
146130
1671
Sviđa mi se.
02:39
(Laughter)
56
147801
3868
(Smeh)
02:43
Now, solving exists across all cultures.
57
151669
4541
Rešavanje postoji u svim kulturama.
Američki izum su ukrštene reči,
02:48
The American invention is the crossword puzzle,
58
156210
2944
02:51
and this year we are celebrating
59
159154
1399
a ove godine slavimo
02:52
the 100th anniversary of the crossword puzzle,
60
160553
2673
stogodišnjicu ukrštenice,
koja je prvo objavljena
u Njujorškom svetu.
u Njujorškom svetu.
02:55
first published in The New York World.
61
163226
2507
Ali mnoge druge kulture imaju
02:57
But many other cultures have
their signature puzzles as well.
their signature puzzles as well.
62
165733
2639
svoje prepoznatljive mozgalice.
03:00
China gives us tangrams,
63
168372
2010
Kina nam daje tangrame,
03:02
which would test solvers' abilities
64
170382
2045
koji testiraju rešavačeve sposobnosti
03:04
to form shapes from the jumbled pieces.
65
172427
3140
da stvara oblike od izbrkanih delova.
Haos. Red.
03:07
Chaos. Order.
66
175567
3003
Red.
03:10
Order.
67
178570
2058
03:12
And order.
68
180628
3195
I red.
Ta mi je omiljena, da čujemo još jednom.
03:15
That one's my favorite, let's hear it again.
69
183823
2570
03:18
Okay.
70
186393
1671
03:20
And how about this puzzle
71
188064
1776
A šta je sa ovom mozgalicom
03:21
invented in 18th-century England:
72
189840
2439
koja je smišljena u 18. veku u Engleskoj,
03:24
the jigsaw puzzle.
73
192279
2051
slagalica.
03:26
Is this not making order out of chaos?
74
194330
3814
Zar ovo nije pravljenje reda od haosa?
Tako da, kao što možete da vidite,
03:30
So as you can see,
75
198144
1469
03:31
we are always solving.
76
199613
1779
mi uvek rešavamo.
03:33
We are always trying to decode our world.
77
201392
3962
Uvek pokušavamo da dekodiramo svoj svet.
03:37
It's an eternal quest.
78
205354
1530
To je večno traganje.
03:38
It's just like the one Cervantes wrote about
79
206884
2644
To je baš kao što je Servantes napisao
03:41
in "Don Quixote,"
80
209528
1451
u delu „Don Kihot",
03:42
which by the way is the root of the word "quixotry,"
81
210979
2002
što je usput koren reči „quixotry",
koja donosi najviše poena
u igri "Nađi reč" ,
u igri "Nađi reč" ,
03:44
the highest-scoring Scrabble word of all time,
82
212981
1823
03:46
365 points.
83
214804
1856
365 poena.
03:48
But anyway, "Don Quixote" is an important book.
84
216660
3217
„Don Kihot" je važna knjiga.
03:51
You guys have read "Don Quixote," yes?
85
219877
2037
Čitali ste Don Kihota, zar ne?
Vidim kako neki klimaju glavom.
03:53
I'm seeing some heads nod.
86
221914
1506
Hajde ljudi, stvarno?
03:55
Come on guys, really?
87
223420
1282
Ko je čitao Don Kihota? Uradićemo ovo.
03:56
Who's read "Don Quixote?" Let's do this.
Raise your hands if you've read "Don Quixote."
Raise your hands if you've read "Don Quixote."
88
224702
2537
Podignite ruku ako ste čitali Don Kihota.
03:59
There we go. Smart audience.
89
227239
1110
Pametna publika.
04:00
Who's read "Don Quixote?" Get them up.
90
228349
1714
Ko je čitao Don Kihota? Podignite ih.
04:02
Okay, good, because I need somebody smart here
91
230063
4213
Dobro, jer mi treba neko pametan ovde
04:06
because now I'm going to demonstrate
92
234276
1202
zato što ću sada da demonstriram uz pomoć
04:07
with the help of one of you
93
235478
1872
jednog od vas
04:09
just how deeply rooted your urge to solve is,
94
237350
3336
koliko je nagon da rešite duboko ukopan
04:12
just how wired to solve all of you really are,
95
240686
2499
i koliko ste svi vi sposobni,
04:15
so I'm going to come into the audience
96
243185
1442
sada ću da uđem u publiku
04:16
and find somebody to help me.
97
244627
2998
i naći ću nekoga da mi pomogne.
04:19
Let's see.
98
247625
2122
04:21
Everybody's looking away all of a sudden.
99
249747
3892
Svi odjednom gledaju u suprotnom smeru.
04:25
Can I? Would you? What is your name? Gwen.
100
253639
3917
Mogu li? Hoćeš li? Kako se zovete? Gven.
04:29
I'm not a mind reader, I can see your name tag.
101
257556
2441
Ne čitam misli, vidim tvoje ime na pločici.
Dođi Gven. Svi joj dajte aplauz,
04:31
Come with me, Gwen. Everyone give her
a round of applause, make her feel welcome.
a round of applause, make her feel welcome.
102
259997
4313
neka se oseća dobrodošlom.
04:36
Gwen, after you.
103
264310
1672
Gven, posle tebe.
04:37
(Applause)
104
265982
1882
(Aplauz)
Jesi li uzbuđena?
04:39
Are you so excited?
105
267864
3411
04:43
Did you know that your name is worth
106
271275
1455
Da li si znala da tvoje ime vredi
04:44
eight points in Scrabble?
107
272730
1598
8 poena u igri „Nađi reč?"
04:46
Okay, stand right here, Gwen, right here.
108
274328
4287
Stani ovde Gven, ovde.
04:50
Now, Gwen, before we begin,
109
278615
2502
Gven, pre nego što počnemo,
04:53
I'd like to point out a piece of the puzzle,
110
281117
2609
želim da istaknem deo slagalice
04:55
which is here in this envelope,
111
283726
1537
koji je ovde u koverti,
04:57
and I will not go near it. Okay?
112
285263
1620
ja mu se neću približavati.Okej?
04:58
And over here we have a
drawing of some farm animals.
drawing of some farm animals.
113
286883
2008
A ovde imamo crteže životinja sa farme.
05:00
You can see we have an owl, we have a horse,
114
288891
1360
Imamo sovu, konja,
05:02
a donkey, a rooster, an ox, and a sheep,
115
290251
2229
magarca, petla, vola i ovcu,
05:04
and then here, Gwen, we have
116
292480
1210
a onda ovde, Gven, imamo
05:05
some fancy art store markers,
117
293690
2420
neke kitnjaste markere iz knjižare,
05:08
colors like, can you see that word right there?
118
296110
2340
boje poput, vidiš li tu reč ovde?
05:10
Gwen: Cobalt.
David Kwong: Cobalt, yes. Cobalt.
David Kwong: Cobalt, yes. Cobalt.
119
298450
2339
Gven: Kobaltno plava.
David: Da, kobaltno plava.
David: Da, kobaltno plava.
Ali imamo marker srebrne,
crvene, smaragdno zelene

05:12
But we have a silver, a red, an emerald,
120
300789
2618
05:15
and an amber marker,
121
303407
1458
i boje ćilibara,
05:16
and Gwen, you are going to color this drawing
122
304865
2265
i Gven, obojićeš ovaj crtež
05:19
just like you were five years old,
123
307130
1477
kao kad si imala 5 godina,
05:20
one marker at a time.
124
308607
1108
marker po marker.
05:21
It's going to be a lot of fun.
125
309715
1519
Biće veoma zabavno.
05:23
But I'm going to go over here.
126
311234
1021
Ali ja ću ići ovde.
05:24
I don't want to see what you're doing.
127
312255
2087
Ne želim da vidim šta radiš.
05:26
Okay, so don't start yet.
128
314342
1070
Okej, tako da nemoj još da počneš.
05:27
Wait for me to get over here and close my eyes.
129
315412
1427
Čeaj da dođem ovde i zatvorim oči.
05:28
Now Gwen, are you ready?
130
316839
1878
Sada Gven, da li si spremna?
05:30
Pick up just one marker, pick up just one marker,
131
318717
3510
Podigni samo jedan marker,
i zašto ne bi obojila konja,
05:34
and why don't you color in the horse for me?
132
322227
1385
05:35
Color in the horse — big, big, big scribbles,
133
323612
3553
velike, velike, velike škrabotine,
široki potezi, ne mari za linije.
05:39
broad strokes, don't worry about staying in the lines.
134
327165
2958
Dobro, odlično.
05:42
All right. Great.
135
330123
1276
05:43
And why don't you take that marker and recap it
136
331399
1576
Hajde zatvori taj marker
05:44
and place it on the table for me.
137
332975
1930
i stavi ga na sto za mene.
05:46
Okay, and pick up another marker out of the cup
138
334905
3220
Okej, uzmi drugi marker iz čaše
05:50
and take off the cap
139
338125
2450
i otvori ga
05:52
and color in the donkey for me, color in the donkey.
140
340575
2066
i oboji magarca za mene.
05:54
Big scribbles.
141
342641
3068
Velike škrabotine.
05:57
Okay, cool, and re-cap that marker
142
345709
2234
Okej, kul, zatvori taj marker
05:59
and place it on the table.
143
347943
1502
i stavi ga na sto.
06:01
And pick up another marker for me
144
349445
2278
Uzmi drugi marker i otvori ga.
06:03
and take off the cap. Isn't this fun?
145
351723
2463
Zar ovo nije zabavno?
06:06
And color in the owl for me.
146
354186
1327
Oboji sovu za mene.
06:07
Color in the owl.

Okay, and recap that marker

Okej, zatvori taj marker
i uzmi drugi marker iz čaše

06:14
and color in the rooster for me, color in the rooster.
150
362838
3576
i oboji petla.
Dobro, dobro, dobro, dobro, dobro,
06:18
Good, good, good, good, good.

Big, big, big strokes. Good, good.

Podigni još jedan marker iz čaše

A lot of color on that, and recap,

Puno boje tu,
zatvori marker i stavi ga na sto

06:30
and pick up another marker out of the cup.
157
378406
2704
i izvadi još jedan marker iz čaše.
06:33
Oh, I'm out? Okay, I'm going to turn around.
158
381110
2739
Dobro, okrenuću se.
06:35
Did I forget? Oh, I forgot my purple marker.
159
383849
5260
Zaboravio sam?
Ah, zaboravio sam ljubičasti.
Ah, zaboravio sam ljubičasti.
06:41
This is still going to work, though.
160
389109
1343
Ovo će svejedno da uspe.
06:42
I think this is still going to work, mostly.
161
390452
2283
Mislim da će još uvek da uspe, uglavnom.
06:44
So Gwen, I'm going to hand you this envelope.
162
392735
3153
Gven, daću ti ovu kovertu.
06:47
Don't open it yet. Do not open it yet,
163
395888
2952
Ne otvaraj je još. Ne otvaraj je još,
06:50
but I am going to write down your choices
164
398840
2391
ali zapisaću tvoje izbore
06:53
so that everybody can see
165
401231
2159
tako da svi mogu da vide
06:55
the choices that you made.
166
403390
1273
tvoje izbore.
06:56
Okay, great. So we have a cobalt horse,

Now for the moment of truth, Gwen,
173
434120
2166
A sada trenutak istine, Gven,
07:28
we're going to take a look in that envelope.
174
436286
1685
zavirićemo u kovertu.
07:29
Why don't you open it up and remove
175
437971
1915
Zašto je ne otvoriš i ne izvadiš
07:31
the one piece of paper from inside
176
439886
1292
jedini papir odatle
07:33
and hand it to me,
177
441178
1029
i predaš mi ga,
07:34
and we will see if it matches your choices.
178
442207
4703
videćemo da li se podudara
sa tvojim izborima.
sa tvojim izborima.
Da, mislim da se podudaraju.
07:38
Yes, I think it does.
179
446910
1435
Kobaltno plavi konj, crveni magarac,
07:40
We have a cobalt horse, we have a red donkey,

srebrni vo,
07:44
I forgot my purple marker so we have a blank sheep,

452206
2011
zaboravio sam ljubičasti marker,
pa imamo praznu ovcu,
pa imamo praznu ovcu,
07:46
but that's a pretty amazing
coincidence, don't you think?
coincidence, don't you think?
183
454217
2715
ali je fascinantna slučajnost, zar ne?
07:48
Gwen, well done. That's beautiful. (Applause)
184
456932
4181
Gven, dobro urađeno. To je prelepo.
(Aplauz)
(Aplauz)
07:53
I'll take that back from you.
185
461113
1767
Uzeću to od tebe.
07:54
So ladies and gentlemen, how is this possible?
186
462880
3864
Pa dame i gospodo, kako je ovo moguće?
07:58
How is this possible? Well, could it be
187
466744
2817
Kako je ovo moguće?
Pa, da li je Gvenin mozak
toliko sposoban da rešava
toliko sposoban da rešava
08:01
that Gwen's brain is so wired to solve
188
469561
4262
08:05
that she decoded hidden messages?
189
473823
2846
da je dekodirala skrivene poruke?
08:08
Well this is the puzzle I present to you.
190
476669
2047
Ovo je mozgalica koju vam predstavljam.
08:10
Could there be order
191
478716
1980
Da li možda postoji red
08:12
in the chaos that I created?
192
480696
3004
u haosu koji sam stvorio?
08:15
Let's take a closer look.
193
483700
1740
Hajde da malo bliže pogledamo.
08:17
Do you recall when I showed you these puzzle pieces?
194
485440
4011
Da li se sećate kada sam vam
pokazao delove slagalice?
08:21
What image did it ultimately become? A cobalt horse.
195
489451
5757
Šta je ta slika na kraju postala?
Kobaltno plavi konj.
Klupko se mrsi.
08:27
The plot thickens.
196
495208
1777
I igrali smo tangram
08:28
And then we played a game of tangrams
197
496985
2205
08:31
with an emerald rooster.
198
499190
4990
sa smaragdno zelenim petlom.
08:36
That one's my favorite.
199
504180
2198
Ta mi je omiljena.
08:38
And then we had an experiment with a silver ox.
200
506378
6255
A onda smo imali eksperiment
sa srebrnim volom.
A Kejti Peri pije svoju jutarnju kafu
08:44
And Katy Perry drinks her morning coffee
201
512633
2700
08:47
out of an amber owl.
202
515333
3829
iz sove boje ćilibara.
Kejti, hvala ti što si se slikala za mene.
08:51
Thank you, Katy, for taking that photo for me.
203
519162
1679
08:52
Oh, and there's one more, there's one more.
204
520841
1965
Oh, ima još jedno, ima još jedno.
08:54
I believe you colored a red donkey, Gwen.
205
522806
3428
Gven, mislim da si magarca
obojila u crveno.
obojila u crveno.
Dame i gospodo, možete li podići ruke
08:58
Ladies and gentlemen, could you raise your hands
206
526234
1630
08:59
for me if you've read "Don Quixote?"
207
527864
2420
ako ste pročitali Don Kihota?
09:02
Who's read "Don Quixote?" (Laughter)
208
530284
2895
Ko je pročitao Dona Kihota? (Smeh)
09:05
But wait, but wait, wait, wait, wait, there's more.
209
533179
1776
Ali čekajte, ima još.
09:06
There's more.
210
534955
1495
Ima još.
09:08
Gwen, I was so confident
211
536450
2759
Gven, bio sam toliko uveren
09:11
that you were going to make these choices
212
539209
1924
da ćeš da napraviš takve izbore,
09:13
that I made another prediction,
213
541133
2638
da sam napravio još jedno predviđanje,
09:15
and I put it in an even more indelible place,
214
543771
3330
i stavio sam ga
na još neizbrisivije mesto,
na još neizbrisivije mesto,
09:19
and it's right here.
215
547101
2418
i ovde je.
09:21
Ladies and gentlemen,
216
549519
1282
Dame i gospodo,

The date is March 18th, 2014.
218
554379
3825
Datum je 18. mart 2014.
09:30
Many of you in the first couple of rows
219
558204
1846
Mnogi od vas u prvih par redova
09:32
have it underneath your seats as well.
220
560050
2120
ga imaju ispod svojih sedišta.
09:34
Really dig. We hid them under there.
221
562170
2210
Stvarno kopajte. Baš smo ih sakrili ispod.
09:36
See if you can fish out the newspaper
222
564380
1541
Vidite da li možete da upecate novine
09:37
and open up to the arts section
223
565921
2398
i otvorite deo o umetnosti
09:40
and you will find the crossword puzzle,
224
568319
3463
i naći ćete ukrštenicu,
09:43
and the crossword puzzle today
225
571782
1563
a današnju ukrštenicu
09:45
was written by yours truly.
226
573345
2059
je napisala moja malenkost.
Moje ime je iznad ukrštenice.
09:47
You can see my name above the grid.
227
575404
1066
09:48
I'm going to give this to you, Gwen, to take a look.
228
576470
2533
Daću ti ovo, Gven, da pogledaš.
09:51
And I will also put it up on the screen.
229
579003
4193
Staviću ovo i na ekran.
09:55
Now let's take a look
230
583196
1882
Sada hajde da pogledamo
09:57

na još jedan deo mozgalice.
10:00
If you look at the first clue for 1-across,
232
588385
3218
Ako pogledate na prvi trag vodoravno,
10:03
it starts with the letter C, for corrupt,
233
591603
3296
počinje slovom C, za "Corrupt" ,
10:06
and just below that we have an O, for outfielder,
234
594899
2926
ispod toga imamo O, za "outfielder",
10:09
and if you keep reading the
first letters of the clues down,
first letters of the clues down,
235
597825
2946
ako nastavite da čitate prva slova nadole,
10:12

600771
2801
dobićete kobaltno plavog konja,
10:15
amber owl, silver ox,

603572

10:24
That's pretty cool, right?
240
612164

To je baš kul, zar ne?
10:29
It's The New York Times.
241
617735
1711
To je Njujork tajms.
10:31
But wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait.
242
619446
1576
Ali čekajte, čekajte. Čekajte.
10:33
Oh, Gwen,
243
621022
1522
Oh, Gven,
10:34
do you recall how I forgot my purple marker,
244
622544
2604
sećaš li se da sam zaboravio
ljubičasti marker,
10:37
and you were unable to color the sheep?
245
625148
3047
i nisi mogla da obojiš ovcu?
Pa, ako nastaviš da čitaš
10:40
Well, if you keep reading
246
628195
1453
10:41
starting with 25-down,
247
629648
1631
počevši od 25 na dole,
10:43
it says,
248
631279
906
kaže:
10:44
"Oh, by the way,
249
632185
1773
„Oh, usput,
10:45
the sheep can be left blank."
250
633958
4312
ovca može ostati prazna."
10:50
(Laughter) (Applause)
251
638270
4436
(Smeh) (Aplauz)
10:54
But wait, wait, wait, there's one more thing,
252
642706
1574
Ali čekajte, još jedna stvar,
10:56
there's one more thing,
253
644280
1203
još jedna stvar,
10:57
there's one final piece of the puzzle.
254
645483
2839
tu je još jedan poslednji deo mozgalice.
11:00
Gwen, I am so grateful for your choices
255
648322
4319
Gven, zahvalan sam na tvojim izborima
11:04
because if we take a look
256
652641
1991
jer ako pogledamo
11:06
at the first letters of your combinations,
257
654632
2231
prva slova tvojih kombinacija,
11:08
we get "C-H-A-O-S" for chaos
258
656863
3012
dobijamo C-H-A-O-S za "chaos" (haos)
11:11
and "O-R-D-E-R" for order.
259
659875
2823
i O-R-D-E-R za "order" (red).
11:14
That's chaos and order.
260
662698
1530
To su haos i red.
11:16
We've all made order out of chaos.
261
664228
1676
Svi smo napravili red iz haosa.
11:17
So ladies and gentlemen, the next time
262
665904
2003
Dame i gospodo, kada sledeći put
11:19
you find yourself with a puzzle,
263
667907
1552
budete rešavali mozgalicu,
11:21
whether it's in your life or in your work,
264
669459
3042
bilo da je vezana za život ili posao,
ili je možda u nedelju ujutru
11:24
or maybe it's at the Sunday morning
265
672501
1181
11:25
breakfast table with The New York Times,
266
673682
2408
za doručkom uz Njujork tajms,
11:28
remember, you are all wired to solve.
267
676090
3842
setite se, vi ste sposobni da rešavate.
11:31
Thank you.

David Kwong - CruciverbalistDavid Kwong creates illusions for films and TV, and makes verbal magic as a crossword puzzle maker for the New York Times.
Why you should listen
As a magician and crossword puzzle constructor, David Kwong mixes puzzles and prestidigitation. With a background in film (and a Harvard degree in the history of magic), he's the founder of the Misdirectors Guild, an elite group of magicians that specialize in illusion for film, television and theater (they're working right now on Marvel's upcoming Ant-Man).
