Thanks for having me, TED! Hope you all enjoyed my talk 💛
Fun fact, I remember nothing from my time on stage. Just total blackout. Was really nervous the whole way through! Follow me if you want to see more stuff 👼

That’s so nice to hear though – surely a fairly true sign, if there ever was one, that it came straight from emotion and wasn’t contrived 🙏🏼

Thanks Brian. I’ll contact TED immediately and ask that they remove this video at once so I can fly to Canada, reshoot the talk and correct the grammatical mishap
just scrolling by ツ
August 3, 2023 at 9:14 am
Lol no need Lucas, gift is formally recognized as a verb AND a noun. Shame that’s the only thing this user seems to have taken from your interesting TED talk. Thanks for sharing!

I’m just a learner of English, I first listened this from Spotify, and since was all just audio, I was imaginating all of the words that you were saying, and it was fantastic to imagine these things, while I am understanding another language, then I decided to viewed on YouTube, and now I am here, it’s amazing all of the things that someone can create just by imaginating. Anyways, new follower Lucas!.

Hello, Lucas! thank you so much for personally showing your world – originality, uniqueness, charisma, all of these traits you are gifted with, in my opinion. Besides, I loved the way your brave humility on the stage; like your clothes, and shoeless legs yet the long hair – you reminded me an extraordinary outlook of Steve Jobs 🤩🤩🤩. Despite the fact, your breakthrough, that it is a fusion of art and technology, could lead to a significant demise of social human interaction in a person, and social traits, it gives the opportunity of doing so virtually. May God bless you, good luck to your ongoing projects and endeavours. Thanks!!!👌👌

When art and new technology come together, amazing things can happen. It’s like mixing colors on a canvas to create a beautiful painting. As we look ahead to the future, it’s clear that combining art and tech can change industries and make our lives better in many ways!

How much do WE (?) really need, as humans (with a fundamental human condition that has never really changed), really need this tech though. This is great if you want to find purpose in the tech industry but I struggle to see a deeper message than someone saying go follow your gut. Don’t get me wrong, this is a great example of trusting your gut – it certainly seems to have given him a lot of joy and happiness (although only he really knows that) 😉
Lucas Rizzotto
August 3, 2023 at 7:13 am
Following your gut is a universal lesson that everyone needs to learn, but few actually embrace. Whatever helps them drill it in 🙂
Jack Noke
August 3, 2023 at 7:53 am
Never anything more true. Something we all have but have struggled to say they know when it’s there and what it really is/feels like (I – the guilty). And also, I must clarify that I appreciate your reply. Anything I ever say I never feel a form of ‘qualification’ I’ve just from somewhere (for better or worse) learned to always play devils advocate with myself! Your video brought me a true sense of joy – something which feels very real. 🙏🏼🙌🏻

I’ve been following Lucas ever since the Reddit post with his first major project (2:36).
I usually find Reddit to be a waste of time, but that day I struck gold. Not only had he created an amazing project, and one of the greatest YouTube videos to ever grace the site, but he created community. He created a Discord server that inspired many to talk and collaborate, and even started an “AR House” in LA – where he brought together a ton of fellow artists interested in creating spectacles.
Art doesn’t just birth miracles; it inspires.
Lucas Rizzotto

An amazing talk! If you would redo the Time Machine it would be interesting to record with a 360 camera maybe one week every month or something. Then when you revisit the week you will experience different impressions of the moments depending on where your focus is and not just where your eyes were looking at the time!
