The six degrees | Kevin Bacon | TEDxMidwest
Kevin Bacon has starred in some of the most influential films in cinema history. Ingrained into our popular culture forever, Bacons films span every genre of the human condition. In true Bacon style, he embraced the «Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon» trivia phenomenon and founded SixDegrees.org, a charitable initiative that links people to charities and each other for the purpose of making a difference.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
