Etienne Chouard at TEDx Republique Square, Paris

"In 2005, before the European referundum, while teaching economics and law, 
Etienne Chouard looked closely to the draft version of the European Constitution
What he discovered changed him forever. He woke up, policatilly. 
Since then, and independently from any political organizations, he warns us against 
our apathy, denounces our responsibility and wants to restore the true meaning of 
democracy. 
His motto : a Constitution written by citizens and representatives selected by sortition."

First TEDx Basque Country in Biarritz...

Initiated by Caroline Phillips, TEDster and holder
of the license TEDxBasqueCountry, this exceptional
event will take place at the Biarritz Bellevue-Casino,
on the French Basque coast
.

Don't miss it !



TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events, that bring people together to share a
TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TED Talks videos 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.


[G@tto first introduced Caro to TED Talks (well, sent her the link) but disclaims now any responsibility for
the following events
. Recognizing the scope of TED's formula 'Ideas Worth Spreading', Caroline Phillips
decided to attend TED India.
You certainly understand that this hadn't stopped there]...

- Theme : Dynamics of Peace
The world has never known a lasting peace time between different countries, people,
or neighbors, nor even between members of one family.
Because our world has not
experienced this state that we call peace, we do need to learn tolerance, cooperation
and sharing. In short, it seems we should change our behavior.
- Check out the Program
- and the Speakers...

Caro : From the 80s to TED Global-Oxford

Caroline Phillips... Who's That Girl?

Her short [TED]Talk and hurdy-gurdy performance in Oxford captivated
the audience, which asked for an 'encore'...


(After the performance, a musical private party, here on YouTube).
_______

Step back, now : after a little dig in G@tto's archives...
here is young Caro, entering her "Paris period
", in early 80s...

As a girl with multiple talents, she started teaching aerobics, while performing
as a singer in many jazz clubs and private parties, with her pianist friends Stacy
MacAdams or Eddie Goldstein.























Caroline and computers? It all started with an Atari and a 4-track studio recording
in 1987, in a small apartment near the subway station Louvre, where she
began
to compose, arrange and make demos of her own songs
.

After a 3-year interlude in California (learning digital orchestration
& harmony), she was back to Paris in 1992 and moved to the
Basque Country (ah, l'amour!)
where, while learning the Basque
language and doing piano bar for a living, she - and Mixel Ducau,
founded the group 'Bidaia' and... gave birth to Alaïa, in 1994.

In 1996 she, well... 'started up' the Phillips Internet Consulting, an
interactive web agency specialized in
consulting, e-marketing and
e-commerce - which is actually her main business
, with headquarters
in Biarritz/Izarbel and offices in Bordeaux and Paris.


* Caroline Phillips is also very involved in local business & politics - have a look at her autobiography
to know more.


But it doesn't stop there, Caro learned to play hurdy-gurdy; Bidaia
became a duo; Caro and Mix created a Disco dance group - just
for the fun; then Caro turned to yoga and immediately broadcasted
YogaMassala, a site dedicated to
yoga practice at home, launching
at the same time her original line of yoga clothing.
