Profound Silliness: Why Doing Utterly Pointless Things Might Just Save Us | Rujuta Singh | TEDxTruro

О видео

What if the things we dismiss as silly, playful or completely pointless are actually some of the most important things we can do? In this joyful and thought provoking TEDxTruro talk, Rujuta Singh explores the hidden power of silliness in a world obsessed with productivity, seriousness and constant achievement. Through humour, curiosity and human insight, she asks whether play, absurdity and purposeless acts can reconnect us with creativity, resilience, community and ourselves. Profound Silliness is an invitation to loosen our grip, laugh a little more, and rediscover the unexpected wisdom found in doing things for no obvious reason at all. Because sometimes, the most pointless moments are the ones that remind us what it means to be fully human. Rujuta Singh is the creator of The Great Silliness Project, a year-long, community-powered exploration into the profound impact of doing utterly pointless things on purpose. Founder of Solved Together, a London-based business transformation and innovation studio, she is one of the top 1% of facilitators globally, a qualified executive coach, expert in neuroscience-based collaboration, design thinking, Lego Serious Play, and the somewhat alarming art of clown facilitation. During a personally difficult year, she discovered what kept her afloat: unexpected, joyful moments of pure silliness. Through her newsletter Profound Silliness, she documents intentional absurdity and the accidental wisdom inside it. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
