- www.ted.com Mae Jemison is an astronaut, a doctor, an art collector, a dancer ... Telling stories from her own education and from her time in space, she calls on educators to teach both the arts and sciences, both intuition and logic, as one -- to create bold thinkers.
TEDTalks is a daily video podcast of the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world's leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes. Featured speakers have included Al Gore on climate change, Philippe Starck on design, Jill Bolte Taylor on observing her own stroke, Nicholas Negroponte on One Laptop per Child, Jane Goodall on chimpanzees, and "Lost" producer JJ Abrams on the allure of mystery. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design, and TEDTalks cover these topics as well as science, business, development and the arts. Watch the Top 10 TEDTalks on TED.com, at www.ted.com/ind...
I feel very blessed to have met this wonderful woman.
As a teacher for 16 years, this is what I’ve been fighting for! Very admirable professional and person. Thank you.
I love how Dr. Jemisen gets it. Art and science are the foundation to building a functional society to progress. Art is one of the first disaplines cut in the schools. Abstract, creativity, science, art, is problem solving - new solutions. The deepest wrinkels made in the brain. Think big. Make mistakes. Wonder. Explore.

mae jemison is an extremely intelligent and articulate woman.her logic is straightforwaard and honest.
Well...she is an astronaut...intelligence is kinda a prerequisite
The lecture was outstanding. I am so glad I had the opportunity to watch it. I have to share this.
She is amazing, I will take this with me for a long time
18 years later she's still right! Outstanding
i got her for my black history project at school.......
Totally right. Separation of the two halves of our identity doesn't solve anything. If we're not using both together, we're being misled...I guess that's humanism. Separating the two leads to relying on one side, so that "spiritual" people don't use reason, and practical, logical people tend to be apathetic. Combining the two motivates to move forward and do it with sharper wits.
I have my doubts as to whether my public discussion is enough, however I agree that it's important to stay vocal on these issues if there is to be any hope of change. The majority of people can't grasp the plight of those starving at an emotional level and until they do they will continue to ignore it. I think we have to tackle the issues from all directions and that includes increasing the level of education for the general populace.
Many great points.
Though I find it peculiar that she makes the point that an idea wont matter unless we put it into action. Seeing as this is one of the most general and "other people should" kind of presentation I have seen on TED.
Most people on TED are people who HAVE to taken acion on their ideas. I would like to hear what Mae Jemison is willing to do to work towards her idea.
I had just graduated high school when you posted this. Amazing!
The truth... Thank you Dr. Jemison!!!
She is still correct today, 11 years after this lecture was originally given.
It's always important to distinguish between chastity and impotence :) That's a great quote!
She might be trying to ride the curve ahead. When we look at the allosphere we see some artistic minds involved. The greatest leaps happen when people of different fields come together. I largely agree with you, but sometimes you can convey more with images (art) than you can with words.
I love this, "If science/ tech provide the bus for humanity's ride (now accelerating!) then Art is the glass windshield, headlights, map and the DESIRED DESTINATION!",
beautifully put.
Great speech, Mae!
She is badass: Engineer, scientist, physician and astronaut.
That is brilliant!!!
It takes creativity to be open and inspired to wonder and isn't that what scientist do? Love this and thank you..

hi from 2019 !
great video, thank you for this!!
we're on the same page. i was originally addressing mae's phrase, 'our goal is to integrate science and the arts.' that's not a goal, although it is something useful. like i said, academia is largely quite insular. they're in a minority, it makes sense in a way. they seek goals in their fields, and that's important. perhaps i should have said i wish those in academia had a better notion of solidarity. 'an injury to one is an injury to all.' 500 characters is far too few for worthwhile topics
She says: "Science provides an understanding of a universal experience and the Arts provide a universal understanding of a personal experience" .... think about it, the arts and sciences belong together.
super on point
I am able to connect all the information- it is fluid. Science and Art are the same. From wonder we are able to discover and create a new...movement, piece, environment, life.
Melissa Ayr, Artist
She seems like an interesting person that has a rare in depth perspective on both arts and sciences. I like the way she proposes that they're both important and both have their place.
best ted in a long time
We have many vital issues that need addressing, however until we've changed the people, the people aren't going to change the way they live their lives. The issues of overpopulation, global warming, starvation, health, factory farming and religion, these issues are symptoms of a greater problem, our general ignorance, our lack of empathy and our rampant materialism. These problems can only be changed through education.
That was incredible, I feel the same way about arts and science.
That they're separate ideas doesn't preclude them from interacting with positive results.
Likewise, science starts with the pursuit of a solution to a problem. Determining the value of the solution and seeking the best route to that solution is subjective. The methods to seek the facts to define the problem and possible solution is objective, but finally the value of that solution is, yet again, subjective.
Fantastic talks. Yes left - right brain is naieve. Its more local and non local mind.
Totally, I find myself abbreviating my thoughts and then, after posting, seeing just how easy it could be to misconstrue my thoughts on a subject. Still, as you say, I reckon we're singing from the same song book and I agree, 'goal' does sound like it's the end of a journey rather than a good direction to travel. Her ideas are the means to an end, part of the means anyway.
Nice chatting :)
I agree on this about you. it`s that we have to solve the problem at root level. not to fight with it`s aftereffects/results.
It`s the same as, example, more people would understand that to steal is unnecessary, it would solve the problem at root. while how it is now, people are just fighting with results of stealing, by applying more restrictions or so. well maybe not that good example, but i hope you understand. And sorry if someone doesnt understand me, english is my second language.
I wasn't even born when this talk happened :0
What you say should be engraved on bronze plates and installed in front of every school. People often consider the arts and sciences electives, they do not consider that the curriculum itself IS both art and science, a text book is a work of art and a work of science. At ANY age learning is GREATLY enhanced by singing, dancing, rhyming, acting, gaming and discussing, why are these all banned in the classroom? SCIENCE is the art of OBJECTIVE expression, ART is the science of SUBJECTIVE expression
I'll even simplify it further to highlight my point:
Science: Objective
Art: Subjective
=> Objective+Subjective=Subjective
Science cannot under any circumstances have any subjective elements because then it looses its objective nature.
I don't discredit art in general (even though i think most art is a load of nonsense), both areas have their positive effects but they cannot fuse.
This does not mean technology and art cannot cooperate though.
Same reply for you cause i'm lazy:

Love!
Here we have a REAL role model.
I'm in love!
*crossing my fingers* Please don't be religious, PLEASE!!
That is exactly the point where people get me wrong, i do by no means talk about technology, people who develop technology are not necessarily scientists, "science" is a very limited field and as i said arts do not have a place in it.
Well i have some ideas. one is that cars floats a bit from ground. and also that energy is gained from a substance similar to plasma but in purple color.
also that people develop skills they are good at and they like, so they can become like the very best of themselves.
muito bom
Why do our schools too often fail to honor both the right and the left brain? Art is important. Design goes hand in hand with engineering.
"There are two kinds of truth; the truth that lights the way and the truth that warms the heart. The first of these is science, and the second is art.... Without art science would be as useless as a pair of high forceps in the hands of a plumber. Without science art would become a crude mess of folklore and emotional quackery."
She looks part Asian phenotypically, I decided to google her and to my surprise she’s part Asian!
Science = Objective analysis of the natural world
Arts = Subjective expression of emotions/experience etc.
Science and arts are separate areas, they cannot be forcefully mixed.
back at you, friend.
She's cool, I like this way of thinking. However, many of the really clever scientists and engineers have been/are creative people.
Ummmm. Seems like you should perhaps, pick up a book and read about her accomplishments in your spare time, then may be you can find something more positive and enlightening to say the next time you log on. Or may be the reading you'll do in your spare time , can begin to help you can find a cure for cancer.
Wait let me get this straight. You're using a computer to post your comment on a world-wide network and you're asking what's the big deal with science? Just watch "Louise Fresco on feeding the whole world" for an example on what's the big deal with science. You know that Audio Preview button? They put that there for you.
Dude, to understand the world you need science. If you want to live in ignorance, do so. It's easy. Far easier than trying to understand what's actually happening and trying to influence it.
There are admittedly other things on life though.
Sounds like Samantha Carter from SG 1 :)
"We have to revitalize the arts and sciences"...I hate it when people say that without a goal and without the means with which to do it. What a waste of time. Everyone knows that they are good things...what we need is a for people to figure out how to do it. Sponsoring risk-taking is great...but who's going to take a risk because some speaker asks them to take a risk?
Dayum...
while we STAND aside and look.......
I don't know if this is sarcasm, but I think you've completely missed the point.
That is why we dont have flying cars around as people in the 60's and 70's thought we'll have on 2000's
excuse me, '...people *won't* feel like they're crazy thinking about it.'
cutting the trillion dollar military budget would be a huge step in the right direction.
hi
And in the year 2009 when they actually post her talk....hahaha
This is not really true. Both art and science have elements of objectivity and subjectivity integrated within each.
Too often people think that art is whatever the artist calls art. This is fundementally wrong. Art is a mode of communication. The content of the artists attempted message is usually subjective. As it is a mode of communication, the method and medium of the communication itself is OBJECTIVE. The translation and valuation of the substance of the message is subjective...
????
Perspective. Animation. Stylization of human beings. Anatomy. Dynamic poses. Foreshortening. New art styles (Cubism, MC Escher, Dali...)
Today's art is not superior to that of the egyptians or romans?
Lol wow she said 'know the concept difference between impotence and chastity'. All joke aside art and science both mutually attempt to understand/imitate life.
show
another case of academia ignoring the massive problems in society at large. it's almost an insulation problem. scholars are largely insular. very few question the problems of the social order. the ones that do are demonized or ignored for the most part.
'our goal is to integrate science and the arts.'
really? what about ending starvation? one sixth of the human race is starving to death right now. it would be an easy fix if people spoke up about it, because most people don't want others to die
Ha, ha, what? Who says there aren't empirical facts in art. I would say there is fact and truth in most art. Ever heard of William Carlos Williams-Science and poetry.
| do not consider Cubism awesome. But...
I repeat: Dynamic poses. Perspective. Foreshortening. The Egyptians did not have the knowledge of how to do so in the past.
This is not subjective. Go look at Egyptian art. All of their human figures face one direction or another. Do you believe that their art might be improved with additional drawing knowledge?
Also, you seem to know the tastes of an ancient Egyptian. Are you by any chance...an ancient Egyptian? Or do you channel spirits?
Right brain is much more.
And what the big deal with science?
There are other thinks on life.
It's actually more like 2% of the population that is starving.
okk????
to be honest, if we have CANNABIS legalized, we're going to have another 'Renaissance'. Also CREATIONISM is delaying our progress.
id tap that
wrong. check out reputable, independent sources such as human rights watch.
where did you get the figure of 2%? and isn't 2 out of every hundred people still absolutely disgusting? just because the majority of them are the "unpeople" as some call them [still]. you've probably never faced any kind of desperate hunger or starvation, i hope you haven't and never do, but those people do require at the very least minimal assistance. it would cost far less than a month's military budget in the US.
Great person. What she says is true but given the ratings I expected to hear something new.
2015, 2020, 2025. Yikes… talk about breaking the 4th wall haha
2002. lol
About 160 pounds
I'm sorry. I'm afraid you are simply wrong. On both counts. I cannot fully explain just how fundementally wrong you are. Of course, I'm not going to both because you are clearly one of those types that have made up your mind about things and will not listen to reason. Good day.
Zzzzzzz..... mhhnggg.... OH! sorry, just woke up. Is she still talking?
elementary.
A lot of generalizations that go nowhere and offer nothing. I understand wanting to accept the offer to speak, but to have no solutions to offer and to mispronounce words throughout your speech is embarrassing.
