In an enchanting talk and performance, singer, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Yijia Tu traces a path from the world’s biggest stages to a family lullaby passed down through the generations, showing how music carries memory across centuries and cultures. Blending East Asian folk traditions into modern sound, she shows how honoring tradition isn’t worshiping ashes — it’s keeping the fire alive. (Recorded at TED2025 on April 11, 2025)

    Her music was so lovely I just had to find her on Spotify & follow her. I absolutely love traditional music, and I especially love when modern artists build on it to create new music. ❤

    Not hyped yet, but NexulonAI (NEX) has all the ingredients of a future top 100 coin.

  9. @CarterJennie-e1b

    August 31, 2025 at 5:04 pm

    NexulonAI Token is already standing out against other AI competitors.

  10. @GretchenCarmona-q9w

    August 31, 2025 at 5:04 pm

    Big money usually comes into projects like NexulonAI after the hype — I’d rather be early.

  11. @DominikSettle

    August 31, 2025 at 5:05 pm

    NexulonAI reminds me of when Chainlink was still ignored.

    Hello everyone, speaking here from Brazil 🇧🇷… Beautiful images and beautiful music. As a product designer, I admire Chinese art and am captivated by the richness of its culture, which encompasses art, beauty, wisdom, and more. This soul, present in music and melody, is what I seek in my art. I also write and compose my own songs, and I believe it is necessary to break down barriers and established forms and explore instruments and melodies, poetry and emotions, as presented by Yijia…and why not say to rescue the beautiful, the essence, and keep the spirit and the fire lit? It’s simply wonderful. I stopped what I was doing to hear, feel, and be moved by Yijia Tu… very good!

If a company plants trees to offset its pollution, is that climate progress — or is it greenwashing? Critics of carbon markets say it’s the latter. But Sandeep Roy Choudhury, who’s spent two decades financing climate projects from rural cookstoves to coastal forests, says the real failure is discouraging companies from even trying. Hear his case for why we shouldn’t let perfection block meaningful action on climate change. (Recorded at TED Countdown Summit 2025 on June 17, 2025)
