Photographing whales large as life: Bryant Austin at TEDxSanJoseCA 2012

Bryant Austin is an artist working to affect change through the creation of life-size photographs of whales. His work has been met with critical acclaim, and has been received enthusiastically during exhibits worldwide, including shows in Norway and Japan — countries that continue to hunt whales. These full body composite photographs only become possible when a whale chooses to initiate close inspections of him; at times only an arm's reach away.

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.
