Možemo da doživimo šta god želimo,

but feel nothing.

ali ne osećamo ništa.
Možemo da imamo

I want to take you

My company, Artichoke,
which I cofounded in 2006,

Moja firma, Artičoka,
čiji sam bila suosnivač 2006. godine,
čiji sam bila suosnivač 2006. godine,
00:56
was set up to create moments.
13
44336
2493
bila je namenjena da stvara trenutke.
00:58
We all have moments in our lives,
and when we're on our deathbeds,
and when we're on our deathbeds,
14
46853

Svi imamo trenutke u svom životu,
i kada smo na samrtnoj postelji,
i kada smo na samrtnoj postelji,
nećemo se setiti svakodnevnog putovanja
na posao autobusom broj 38,

01:02
we're not going to remember
the daily commute to work

15
50115
2524
01:04
on the number 38 bus
16
52663

01:05
or our struggle to find a parking space
every day when we go to the shop.

17

3808
niti borbe da nađemo mesto za parking
svakog dana kad idemo u kupovinu.

01:09
We're going to remember those moments
when our kid took their first step

18
57674
3410
Setićemo se onih trenutaka
kada je naše dete prohodalo,

01:13
or when we got picked

or when we fell in love.

01:17
So Artichoke exists to create
moving, ephemeral moments

Artičoka dakle postoji da bi stvorila

We create beauty amongst ruins.

Mi stvaramo lepotu među ruševinama.
01:32
We reexamine our history.

Preispitujemo našu istoriju.
01:34
We create moments to which
everyone is invited,

Stvaramo trenutke na koje su svi pozvani,

It all started for me
way back in the 1990s,

Za mene je sve ovo počelo još 1990-ih,

in the tiny British city of Salisbury.

You'll probably have heard of it.

Here's the Salisbury Cathedral,

Salisbury is a city that's been dominated
for hundreds of years by the Church,

Solsberi je grad kojim je stotinama godina
dominirala crkva, Konzervativna partija

the Conservative Party
34
108432

02:01
and the army.
35

02:03
It's a place where people
really love to observe the rules.

To je mesto gde ljudi
zaista vole da se pridržavaju pravila.

02:07
So picture me on my first
year in the city,
year in the city,
37
115552
2960
Zamislite mene prve godine u gradu,
02:10
cycling the wrong way
down a one-way street, late.
down a one-way street, late.
38
118536
3175
kako vozim bicikl u pogrešnom smeru
niz jednosmernu ulicu, i kasnim.
niz jednosmernu ulicu, i kasnim.
02:13
I'm always late.
39
121735
1157
Uvek kasnim.
02:14
It's a wonder I've even turned up today.
40
122916
2151
Čudo je da sam se uopšte pojavila danas.
02:17
(Laughter)
41
125091
1534
(Smeh)
02:18
A little old lady on the sidewalk
helpfully shouted at me,
helpfully shouted at me,
42
126649
2903
Jedna sićušna starica na trotoaru
mi je susretljivo doviknula:
mi je susretljivo doviknula:
02:21
"My dear, you're going the wrong way!"
43
129576
2263
„Draga, ideš u pogrešnom smeru!“
02:23
Charmingly -- I thought --
I said, "Yeah, I know."
I said, "Yeah, I know."
44
131863
2715
Šarmantno, mislila sam,
rekoh: „Da, znam.“
rekoh: „Da, znam.“
02:26
"I hope you die!" she screamed.
45
134602
1982
„Crkla dabogda!“ - povikala je.
02:28
(Laughter)
46
136608
1200
(Smeh)
02:29
And I realized that this was a place
where I was in trouble.
where I was in trouble.
47
137832
3308
Shvatila sam da ću ovde imati problem.
02:33
And yet, a year later,
48
141164
2829
A ipak, godinu dana kasnije,
02:36
persuasion, negotiation --
everything I could deploy --
everything I could deploy --
49
144017
3930
uz ubeđivanje, pregovaranje,
sve što sam mogla da upotrebim,
sve što sam mogla da upotrebim,
02:39
saw me producing the work.
50
147971
1945
uspevala sam da obavim posao.
02:41
Not a classical concert in a church
or a poetry reading,
or a poetry reading,
51
149940
3566
Ne da organizujem klasični koncert
u crkvi ili čitanje poezije,
u crkvi ili čitanje poezije,
02:45
but the work of a French
street theater company
street theater company
52
153530
2193
već da francuska kompanija
uličnog pozorišta
uličnog pozorišta
02:47
who were telling the story of Faust,
53
155747

"Mephistomania," on stilts,
complete with handheld pyrotechnics.

02:54
The day after, the same little old lady
stopped me in the street and said,
stopped me in the street and said,
55
162051
3889
Dan kasnije, ista starica
me je zaustavila na ulici i rekla:
me je zaustavila na ulici i rekla:
02:57
"Were you responsible for last night?"
56
165964
3473
„Jesi li ti odgovorna za ono od sinoć?“
03:01
I backed away.
57
169461
1483
Ustuknula sam.
03:02
(Laughter)
58
170968
1817
(Smeh)
03:04
"Yes."
59
172809
1333
„Da.“
03:06
"When I heard about it," she said,
"I knew it wasn't for me.
"I knew it wasn't for me.
60
174963
3178
„Kada sam čula za to,“ rekla je,
„znala sam da nije za mene.
„znala sam da nije za mene.
03:10
But Helen, my dear, it was."
61
178165
2767
Ali Helen, draga, bilo je.“
03:13
So what had happened?
62
181317
1325
Pa, šta se desilo?
03:14
Curiosity had triumphed over suspicion,
63
182666
2750
Radoznalost je nadjačala sumnju,
03:17
and delight had banished anxiety.
64
185440
2685
a oduševljenje je proteralo teskobu.
03:20
So I wondered how one could transfer
these ideas to a larger stage
these ideas to a larger stage
65
188574
6509
Zapitala sam se kako bi se ove ideje
mogle preneti na veći nivo
mogle preneti na veći nivo
03:27
and started on a journey
to do the same kind of thing to London.
to do the same kind of thing to London.
66
195107
4568
i započela sam putovanje
da uradim to isto u Londonu.
da uradim to isto u Londonu.
03:31
Imagine: it's a world city.
67
199699
1864
Zamislite: to je svetski grad.
03:33
Like all our cities, it's dedicated
to toil, trade and traffic.
to toil, trade and traffic.
68
201587
4014
Kao i svi naši gradovi, posvećen je radu,
trgovini i saobraćaju.
trgovini i saobraćaju.
To je mašina koja treba da vas na vreme
odveze na posao i vrati nazad,
odveze na posao i vrati nazad,
03:37
It's a machine to get you
to work on time and back,
to work on time and back,
69
205625
2820
03:40
and we're all complicit in wanting
the routines to be fixed
the routines to be fixed
70
208469
4312
i svi smo saučesnici u želji
da rutina bude učvršćena
da rutina bude učvršćena
03:44
and for everybody to be able to know
what's going to happen next.
what's going to happen next.
71
212805
4011
i da svi mogu da znaju
šta će se sledeće dogoditi.
šta će se sledeće dogoditi.
03:48
And yet, what if this amazing city
could be turned into a stage,
could be turned into a stage,
72
216840
4498
A ipak, šta ako bi se ovaj čudesni grad
pretvorio u pozornicu,
pretvorio u pozornicu,
03:53
a platform for something so unimaginable
73
221362
3009
platformu za nešto toliko nazamislivo
03:56
that would somehow
transform people's lives?
transform people's lives?
74
224395
3233
da bi to nekako
transformisalo živote ljudi?
transformisalo živote ljudi?
Često radimo takve stvari u Britaniji.
03:59
We do these things often in Britain.
75
227652
1748
04:01
I'm sure you do them wherever you're from.
76
229424
2047
Sigurna sam da to radite
u mestima odakle ste.
u mestima odakle ste.
04:03
Here's Horse Guards Parade.
77
231495
1679
Evo parade konjičke garde.
04:05
And here's something that we do often.
It's always about winning things.
It's always about winning things.
78
233198
3405
A evo i nečega što često radimo.
Uvek se radi o pobeđivanju.
Uvek se radi o pobeđivanju.
04:08
It's about the marathon or winning a war
79
236627
2053
Radi se o maratonu, pobeđivanju u ratu
04:10
or a triumphant cricket team coming home.
80
238704
2032
ili pobednički kriket tim
koji se vraća kući.
koji se vraća kući.
04:12
We close the streets. Everybody claps.
81
240760
2632
Zatvaramo ulice. Svi aplaudiraju.
04:15
But for theater? Not possible.
82
243416
2429
Ali za pozorište? Nemoguće.
04:18
Except a story told by a French company:
83
246408
3971
Osim kada se radi o priči francuske trupe,
04:22
a saga about a little girl
and a giant elephant

84
250403

sagi o devojčici i ogromnom slonu

koji su došli u posetu
04:28
for four days.
86
256288
1356
na četiri dana.
04:29
And all I had to do was persuade
the public authorities
the public authorities
87
257668
3013
Samo je trebalo da ubedim
javne zvaničnike

04:32
that shutting the city for four days
was something completely normal.

nešto sasvim normalno.

No traffic, just people
enjoying themselves,

francuske pozorišne trupe Rojal deluks.
04:48
It was a seven-year journey,
93
276377
2039
Bio je to sedam godina dug put,
04:50
with me saying to a group of men --
almost always men -- sitting in a room,
almost always men -- sitting in a room,
94
278440
4756
pri čemu sam govorila pred grupom
muškaraca - gotovo uvek muškaraca -
muškaraca - gotovo uvek muškaraca -
koji su sedeli u prostoriji:
04:55
"Eh, it's like a fairy story with
a little girl and this giant elephant,
a little girl and this giant elephant,
95
283220
5323
„Eh, to je kao bajka sa devojčicom
i ogromnim slonom,
i ogromnim slonom,
05:00
and they come to town for four days
96
288567
2350
oni dođu u grad na četiri dana
05:02
and everybody gets
to come and watch and play."

97
290941
3292
i svi mogu da dođu,
da gledaju i zabavljaju se.“
da gledaju i zabavljaju se.“
05:06
And they would go,
98
294709
1194
A oni bi rekli:
05:08
"Why would we do this?
99
296586
1392
„Zašto bismo to uradili?
05:11
Is it for something?
100
299255
2130
Da li je povodom nečega?
Da li je za proslavu posete
nekog predsednika?
nekog predsednika?
05:13
Is it celebrating a presidential visit?
101
301409
2104
05:15
Is it the Entente Cordiale
between France and England?
between France and England?
102
303537
2814
Da li je zbog anglo-francuskog sporazuma?
Da li je u dobrotvorne svrhe?
Da li pokušavate da prikupite novac?“
Da li pokušavate da prikupite novac?“
05:18
Is it for charity?
Are you trying to raise money?"
Are you trying to raise money?"
103
306375
2944
05:21
And I'd say,
104
309343
1498
Ja bih rekla:
05:23
"None of these things."
105
311794
1427
„Ništa od toga.“
05:25
And they'd say, "Why would we do this?"
106
313866
2884
A oni bi rekli: „Zašto bismo to radili?“
05:29
But after four years, this magic trick,
this extraordinary thing happened.
this extraordinary thing happened.
107
317393
3636
Ali nakon četiri godine,
desio se čaroban trik, izvanredna stvar.
desio se čaroban trik, izvanredna stvar.
Sedela sam na istom sastanku
na koji sam išla četiri godine,
na koji sam išla četiri godine,
05:33
I was sitting in the same meeting
I'd been to for four years,
I'd been to for four years,
108
321053
2879
govoreći: „Molim vas, mogu li?“
05:35
saying, "Please, please, may I?"
109
323956
1562
05:37
Instead of which, I didn't say, "Please."
110
325542
2015
Umesto što nisam rekla „molim vas“,
05:39
I said, "This thing that we've
been talking about for such a long time,
been talking about for such a long time,
111
327581
4201
već: „Ono o čemu smo govorili
već duže vreme
već duže vreme
05:43
it's happening on these dates,
112
331806
2214
desiće se u ovom periodu,
05:46
and I really need you to help me."
113
334044
1940
i zaista mi je potrebna vaša pomoć.“
05:48
This magic thing happened.
114
336690
1539
Nešto magično se dogodilo.
05:50
Everybody in the room somehow decided
that somebody else had said yes.
that somebody else had said yes.
115
338253
4551
Svi u prostoriji su nekako presudili
da se neko drugi već složio.

They decided that they were not
being asked to take responsibility,

118
349675

Zaključili su da se od njih ne traži
da preuzmu odgovornost,
da preuzmu odgovornost,
ili je možda zatraženo od rukovodioca
za upravljanje autobusima

06:06
or maybe the bus planning manager
was being asked to take responsibility

06:19
All these people were only being asked
to do the thing that they could do
to do the thing that they could do
123
367776
3461
Jedino što se od njih tražilo
je da urade ono što su mogli,
je da urade ono što su mogli,
06:23
that would help us.
124
371261
1357
a što bi nama pomoglo.
06:24
Nobody was being asked
to take responsibility.

125
372642
2236
Nikome nije zatraženo
da preuzme odgovornost.
da preuzme odgovornost.
06:26
And I, in my innocence, thought,
"Well, I'll take responsibility,"
"Well, I'll take responsibility,"
126
374902
4275
I ja sam u svojoj naivnosti pomislila:
„Pa, ja ću da prihvatim odgovornost“
„Pa, ja ću da prihvatim odgovornost“
06:31
for what turned out to be
a million people on the street.
a million people on the street.
127
379201
3587
za ono što se na kraju pretvorilo
u milion ljudi na ulici.
u milion ljudi na ulici.
06:35
It was our first show.
128
383510
1395
Bila je to naša prva predstava.
06:36
(Applause)
129
384929
3497
(Aplauz)
06:41
It was our first show, and it changed
the nature of the appreciation of culture,

130
389262
4961
Bio je to prvi nastup koji je promenio
prirodu uvažavanja kulture,
prirodu uvažavanja kulture,
06:46
not in a gallery, not in a theater,
not in an opera house,
not in an opera house,
131
394247
3250
ne u galeriji, ne u pozorištu,
ne u zgradi opere,

06:49
but live and on the streets,
132
397521
2002
već žive kulture, na ulici,
06:51
transforming public space
for the broadest possible audience,

133
399547
3555
koja je preobrazila javni prostor
za najširu moguću publiku,

06:55
people who would never
buy a ticket to see anything.

134
403126
2472
ljude koji nikada ne bi kupili kartu
da bi nešto videli.
da bi nešto videli.
I tako je to bilo.
06:57
So there we were.
135
405995
1181
06:59
We'd finished, and we've continued
to produce work of this kind.
to produce work of this kind.
136
407200
4460
Završili smo i nastavili smo
da stvaramo ovakve stvari.
da stvaramo ovakve stvari.
07:04
As you can see, the company's
work is astonishing,
work is astonishing,
137
412644
3272
Kao što vidite, ono što radi
ova trupa je neverovatno,
ova trupa je neverovatno,
07:07
but what's also astonishing is the fact
that permission was granted.
that permission was granted.
138
415940
3721
ali ono što je takođe neverovatno
je činjenica da je dozvola odobrena.
je činjenica da je dozvola odobrena.
07:14
And you don't see any security.
139
422654
2604
I uopšte nije bilo obezbeđenja.
07:17
And this was nine months
after terrible terrorist bombings
after terrible terrorist bombings
140
425282
3419
A to je bilo devet meseci
nakon užasnih terorističkih bombardovanja
nakon užasnih terorističkih bombardovanja
07:20
that had ripped London apart.
141
428725
1947
koji su rastrgli London.
07:22
So I began to wonder
whether it was possible
whether it was possible
142
430696
2167
Počela sam da se pitam da li je moguće
07:24
to do this kind of stuff
in even more complicated circumstances.
in even more complicated circumstances.
143
432887
4167
uraditi ovakve stvari
u još složenijim okolnostima.
u još složenijim okolnostima.
07:29
We turned our attention
to Northern Ireland,
to Northern Ireland,
144
437078
2726
Usmerili smo pažnju ka Severnoj Irskoj,
07:31
the North of Ireland,
depending on your point of view.
depending on your point of view.
145
439828
2592
ili ka severu Irske,
u zavisnosti od tačke gledišta.
u zavisnosti od tačke gledišta.
Ovo je mapa Engleske,
Škotske, Velsa i Irske,
Škotske, Velsa i Irske,
07:34
This is a map of England,
Scotland, Wales and Ireland,
Scotland, Wales and Ireland,
146
442444
4309
07:38
the island to the left.
147
446777
1639
ostrva sa leve strane.
07:40
For generations,
it's been a place of conflict,
it's been a place of conflict,
148
448829
2796
Generacijama je to bilo mesto sukoba,
07:43
the largely Catholic republic in the south
149
451649
3033
većinom katolička republika na jugu
07:46
and the largely Protestant
loyalist community --
loyalist community --
150
454706
3653
i zajednica većinom
protestantskih lojalista -
protestantskih lojalista -
07:50
hundreds of years of conflict,
151
458383
2322
stotine godina konflikta,
07:53
British troops on the streets
for over 30 years.
for over 30 years.
152
461530
2964
britanskih trupa na ulicama
više od 30 godina.
više od 30 godina.
07:56
And now, although
there is a peace process,
there is a peace process,
153
464518
2988
A sada, iako je u toku proces mira,
07:59
this is today in this city, called
Londonderry if you're a loyalist,
Londonderry if you're a loyalist,
154
467530
4068
ovo stoji danas u ovom gradu
zvanom Londonderi ako ste lojalista,
zvanom Londonderi ako ste lojalista,
08:03
called Derry if you're a Catholic.
155
471622
2305
a Deri ako ste katolik.
08:07
But everybody calls it home.
156
475753
2002
Ali svi ga nazivaju domom.
08:09
And I began to wonder
157
477779
1183
Počela sam da se pitam
08:10
whether there was a way in which
the community tribalism could be addressed
the community tribalism could be addressed
158
478986
4528
da li postoji način na koji bi se mogao
rešiti tribalizam zajednica
rešiti tribalizam zajednica
08:15
through art and the imagination.
159
483538
2026
kroz umetnost i maštu.
08:18
This is what the communities do,
160
486770
1541
Evo šta zajednice rade,
08:20
every summer, each community.
161
488335
1574
svakog leta, svaka zajednica.
08:21
This is a bonfire filled
with effigies and insignia
with effigies and insignia
162
489933
4006
Ovo je lomača ispunjena
slikama i simbolima
slikama i simbolima
08:25
from the people that they hate
on the other side.
on the other side.
163
493963
2463
ljudi koje mrze na drugoj strani.
08:28
This is the same
from the loyalist community.
from the loyalist community.
164
496450
2961
Ovo je isto to iz zajednice lojalista.
08:31
And every summer, they burn them.
165
499435
4325
I svakog leta ih spale.
08:35
They're right in the center of town.
166
503784
1745
Nalaze se u samom centru grada.
08:37
So we turned to here,
to the Nevada desert, to Burning Man,
to the Nevada desert, to Burning Man,
167
505553
4285
Usmerili smo se u ovom pravcu, ka pustinji
u Nevadi, festivalu Burning Man,
u Nevadi, festivalu Burning Man,
08:41
where people also do bonfires,
168
509862
1528
gde ljudi takođe pale lomače,
08:43
but with a completely
different set of values.
different set of values.
169
511414
2853
ali sa potpuno različitim
skupom vrednosti.
skupom vrednosti.
08:46
Here you see the work of David Best
and his extraordinary temples,
and his extraordinary temples,
170
514291
4844
Ovde vidite radove Dejvida Besta
i njegove izvanredne hramove,
i njegove izvanredne hramove,
08:51
which are built during
the Burning Man event
the Burning Man event
171
519159
3064
koji se grade za vreme
događaja Burning Man,
događaja Burning Man,
08:54
and then incinerated on the Sunday.
172
522247
2617
a potom budu spaljeni u nedelju.
08:56
So we invited him
and his community to come,
and his community to come,
173
524888
2744
Pozvala sam njega
i njegovu zajednicu da dođu
i njegovu zajednicu da dođu
08:59
and we recruited from both sides
of the political and religious divide:
of the political and religious divide:
174
527656
4795
i prikupili smo ljude sa obe strane
političke i verske podele:
političke i verske podele:
09:04
young people, unemployed people,
175
532475
1892
mlade, nezaposlene,
09:06
people who would never
normally come across each other
normally come across each other
176
534391
2712
ljude koji se inače ne bi sreli
niti razgovarali jedni sa drugima.
09:09
or speak to each other.
177
537127
1558
09:10
And out of their extraordinary
work rose a temple
work rose a temple
178
538709
3810
I od njihovog izuzetnog rada
izdigao se hram
izdigao se hram
09:14
to rival the two cathedrals
that exist in the town,
that exist in the town,
179
542543
3318
kao takmac dvema katedralama
koje postoje u gradu,
koje postoje u gradu,
od kojih je jedna katolička,
a druga protestantska.
a druga protestantska.
09:17
one Catholic and one Protestant.
180
545885
2126
09:20
But this was a temple to no religion,
181
548035
3177
Ali ovo je bio hram bez religije,
09:23
for everyone,
182
551236
1381
za svakoga,
09:24
for no community, but for everyone.
183
552641
2960
bez zajednice, ali za svakoga.
09:27
And we put it in this place
where everyone told me nobody would come.
where everyone told me nobody would come.
184
555625
3260
Smestili smo ga na mesto
gde su mi svi govorili da niko neće doći.
gde su mi svi govorili da niko neće doći.
09:30
It was too dangerous.
It sat between two communities.
It sat between two communities.
185
558909
2533
Bilo je previše opasno.
Nalazilo se između dve zajednice.
Nalazilo se između dve zajednice.
09:33
I just kept saying,
"But it's got such a great view."
"But it's got such a great view."
186
561466
2486
Uporno sam govorila:
„Ali ima tako divan pogled.“
„Ali ima tako divan pogled.“
09:35
(Laughter)
187
563976
2000
(Smeh)
09:38
And again, that same old question:
188
566000
1664
I opet, ono isto pitanje:
09:39
Why wouldn't we do this?
189
567688
1722
zašto ne bismo to radili?
09:41
What you see in the picture
190
569434
1313
Ono što vidite na slici su prvi redovi
426 učenika osnovne škole
426 učenika osnovne škole
09:42
is the beginning of 426
primary school children
primary school children
191
570771
2860
09:45
who were walked up the hill
by the head teacher,
by the head teacher,
192
573655
2745
koje je doveo uz ovo brdo njihov direktor
09:48
who didn't want them
to lose this opportunity.
to lose this opportunity.
193
576424
2803
koji nije želeo da propuste tu priliku.
09:51
And just as happens in the Nevada desert,
194
579251
2410
Baš kao što se dešava u pustinji u Nevadi,
09:53
though in slightly different temperatures,
195
581685
2469
mada sa malom razlikom u temperaturi,
09:56
the people of this community,
65,000 of them,
65,000 of them,
196
584178
3713
ljudi u ovoj zajednici, njih 65 000,
09:59
turned out to write their grief,
their pain, their hope,
their pain, their hope,
197
587915
5357
pojavili su se da pišu o svom tugovanju,
o svom bolu, svojim nadama,
o svom bolu, svojim nadama,
10:05
their hopes for the future,
198
593296
1787
nadama vezanim za budućnost,
10:07
their love.
199
595107
1188
o svojoj ljubavi.
10:08
Because in the end,
this is only about love.
this is only about love.
200
596319
2133
Jer, na kraju krajeva,
ovo je samo zbog ljubavi.
ovo je samo zbog ljubavi.
10:11
They live in a post-conflict society:
201
599032
2573
Oni žive u postkonfliktnom društvu
10:13
lots of post-traumatic stress,
202
601629
2130
u kome je mnogo posttraumatskog stresa,
veliki broj samoubistava.
10:15
high suicide.
203
603783
1185
10:16
And yet, for this brief moment --
204
604992
2085
A ipak, na ovaj kratak momenat -
10:19
and it would be ridiculous to assume
that it was more than that --
that it was more than that --
205
607101
3171
a bilo bi smešno pretpostaviti
da je bilo nešto više od toga -
da je bilo nešto više od toga -
10:22
somebody like Kevin -- a Catholic
whose father was shot when he was nine,
whose father was shot when he was nine,
206
610296
4486
neko poput Kevina - katolika čijeg su oca
upucali kada je imao devet godina,
upucali kada je imao devet godina,
10:26
upstairs in bed --
207
614806
1510
na spratu u krevetu -
10:29
Kevin came to work as a volunteer.
208
617189
1955
Kevin je došao da radi kao volonter.
10:31
And he was the first person to embrace
the elderly Protestant lady
the elderly Protestant lady
209
619168
3669
Bio je prvi koji je zagrlio
stariju protestantkinju
stariju protestantkinju
10:34
who came through the door on the day
we opened the temple to the public.
we opened the temple to the public.
210
622861
4575
koja je ušla na vrata toga dana
kada smo hram otvorili za javnost.
kada smo hram otvorili za javnost.
10:40
It rose up. It sat there for five days.
211
628185
3012
Uzdigao se. Stajao je tamo pet dana.
10:43
And then we chose -- from our little tiny
band of nonsectarian builders,
band of nonsectarian builders,
212
631221
5893
A zatim smo iz naše grupice graditelja
koji nisu pripadali nijednoj religiji,
koji nisu pripadali nijednoj religiji,
10:49
who had given us their lives
for this period of months
for this period of months
213
637138
3114
a koji su nam dali svoje živote
na ovaj period od nekoliko meseci
na ovaj period od nekoliko meseci
10:52
to make this extraordinary thing --
214
640276
2513
da bi napravili ovu izuzetnu stvar,
10:55
we chose from them the people
who would incinerate it.
who would incinerate it.
215
643788
3684
odabrali ljude koji će ga zapaliti.
10:59
And here you see the moment when,
216
647926
2732
Ovde vidite trenutak kada,
11:02
witnessed by 15,000 people who turned out
on a dark, cold, March evening,
on a dark, cold, March evening,
217
650682
6826
u prisustvu 15 000 ljudi koji su došli
mračne, hladne martovske večeri,
mračne, hladne martovske večeri,
11:09
the moment when they decided
to put their enmity behind them,
to put their enmity behind them,
218
657532
5888
trenutak kada su rešili
da neprijateljstvo ostave za sobom,
da neprijateljstvo ostave za sobom,
11:15
to inhabit this shared space,
219
663444
3901
da nastane ovaj zajednički prostor,
11:19
where everybody had an opportunity
to say the things that had been unsayable,
to say the things that had been unsayable,
220
667369
4797
gde su svi imali priliku
da kažu stvari koje su bile neizrecive,
da kažu stvari koje su bile neizrecive,
11:24
to say out loud,
221
672190
1209
da glasno kažu:
11:25
"You hurt me and my family,
but I forgive you."
but I forgive you."
222
673423
3257
„Povredili ste mene
i moju porodicu, ali opraštam vam.“
i moju porodicu, ali opraštam vam.“
11:28
And together, they watched
223
676704
3688
I zajedno su posmatrali
11:32
as members of their community let go
of this thing that was so beautiful,
of this thing that was so beautiful,
224
680416
3644
dok su članovi njihove zajednice napuštali
ovu stvar koja je bila tako lepa,
ovu stvar koja je bila tako lepa,
11:37
but was as hard to let go of
225
685394
2659
ali ju je bilo isto tako teško napustiti
11:40
as those thoughts and feelings
226
688077
2962
kao i misli i osećanja
11:43
that had gone into making it.
227
691063
2194
koje su unete u njeno stvaranje.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Helen Marriage - Maverick producerHelen Marriage cofounded a company that specializes in creating disruptive, whole-city arts events that surprise and delight everyone who comes across them.
Why you should listen
Helen Marriage writes: "I am a producer of large-scale disruptive moments that place an artist's ideas in the heart of a city. I started life unsure of how to find a job and began helping a street theater company perform at the Edinburgh Festival. Only then did I realize that this could be a career. That was forty years ago. Since then, I've gone on to shut down central London and other cities with ephemeral events that transform people’s understanding of what a city is for and who controls it.
"I don't believe that cities are exclusively about shopping and traffic. Over the years I've developed a real sense of how artists can change the world, if only we make space for their vision. I guess that's my job -- to create a context in which the normal routines of daily life are disrupted for a moment to allow the public, especially those who know they’re not interested in anything the arts might have to say, to discover a new world we’d all like to live in."
