“Curious Souls Get Together” – 1st meeting


Fellow Curious Souls,

We had our first meeting on Sunday – Sept.30,2012 in Istanbul at Gallery Art350. Art350

At the gallery, there was the exhibition of Setenay Özbek. We were mesmerised by the breathtaking colors of the extraordinary paintings of Ms Özbek and nobody has a complaint about it 🙂

We watched and discussed 4 TED talks and it was a very enjoyable, entertaining and mind-stretching gathering – just like I though it would be! I hope all the participants had the same feeling and enjoyed the time we all spent together.

We watched the following talks:

1. Benjamin Zander: The transformative power of classical music.

2. Sir Ken Robinson says schools kill creativity.

3. Brene Brown talks about the power of vulnerability.

4. David Gallo‘s underwater astonishments.

We were about 30-35 participants and I thank all who participated. It was very good to get to know you.

I should also add that, not only was our meeting enjoyable, but we had such a tempting variety of food on our table that it was impossible to resist! Well everybody brought some food – and this was the outcome: A good example that collaboration and sharing brings richness to our lives :-))

Have a good day everybody and see y

ou all in our next meetings.

Isil the Curious Soul 🙂
