    Out of all the channels to have a dubstep intro TEDx Talks was the least expected

    There's a tedtalk on liminal spaces? There's a tedtalk with a dubstep intro?

    Guys, at some point you need to just stand up for yourself and say, "Listen, the equipment and set up you have given me to record sound is NOT fit for purpose. Either we need to hire in a consultant, OR, we we need to invest in sound design - the feedback, cable rubbing and noise cancellation is not ok, we must not proceed like this."

      truth be told, the headset came untaped and kept banging against my head; it wasn't the earring. As it happened, I looked at the tech crew for direction...deer in the headlights. Since the event was live, I thought it might be more disruptive to stop and adjust than to proceed. Had I to do it over again, I would have stopped and adjusted. Also, the fear of taking this public speaking risk--akin to bungee jumping!-- propelled me forward!

    For those that don't understand, this as absolutely nothing to do with those liminal spaces images on youtube, she is talking about situations that are unsure (maybe between a job and the next or something like that, something that has no clear or well defined path)

      I will admit it is through those images and videos I’ve learned that there is a deep connection to that feeling of murky uncertainty.

      They are still very much related, conceptually and psychologically. An ambiguity, a crossroads. “Situations that are unsure” is actually a great way to explain it. But yes, this video is more about self growth than eery images taken at 3 am :)

    I enjoyed this immensely. I'd never used the term "liminal space" before, but certainly have experienced them. We all have. How do we move through these (sometimes) anticipated spaces and get the most out of our lives. Thank you, Sarah Thomas for these great insights. Bravery!

    Wish there was a transcript. Couldn't hear parts of what she was saying. Couldn't hear what her Father whispered.
    Disregard: Found close caption.
    And there is no close caption for Father's whispering.

    I liked the video overall, I was just a little bummed out that it still supports the notion that liminal spaces are somehow intrinsically bad. They're only bad in the context of living a purposeful life filled with achieving goal xyz since they are the obstacles that must be overcome. It did point out that the vehicle used to move through liminal spaces is the same force that defines our humanity. It makes more sense to me to view liminal spaces as opportunities to embody that humanizing aspect of ourselves, that we can embody our state of being which has no direction yet is capable of creating direction out of no-thing (and in fact I'd argue those are the only moments we can truly be ourselves).

    I think I was in a Liminal space when I had a missed miscarriage.. I was told at what should have been my 12 week checkup that the baby died at 8 weeks, and my body should have expelled the pregnancy but it didn't. I was shocked, I went in there expecting to become a mother and walked out wondering if I would ever become a mother. Then I was pregnant but wouldn't have a baby for next week while I wanted for a D&C procedure to remove the baby.. :(

    this video has found me in the middle of a liminal time in my life. my understanding and connection is visceral, almost as if this video is one of the rituals towards my way out of this liminality. i am not the same person i was 16 minutes ago.

      fernandez interesting how she applied it to mental headspace. As an architecture major I think the physical and emotional realm are definitely connected and it’s a perfect time to experience places in a new light and therefore ourselves. Weird times stay safe in the dorms
