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, TED Talks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection. 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.)


【プロフィール】
2011年1月「松江開府400年祭」開催に伴い、松江城とその周辺でおもてなし活動をする「まつえ若武者隊」が結成。 しかし「松江開府400年祭」終了とともに同年12月解散。 松江のサムライ魂を伝えたいがため同名にて2012年3月再結成。 現在、松江城にて甲冑姿や時代衣装でのおもてなしを行う。 「松江は武者のまち」として多くの観光客とふれあい、侍の居るまち・松江を演出している。 時代錯誤？といった周囲の疑問をまったく気にせず、松江城から日の本を元気にするため城中に出陣中。 今回は松江城を通して天の時地の利人の和を以て至弱なれども至強に対するコツをお教えする。 …要するに 「難しい歴史を平たく話し、色んな分野に活かしてほしい」 と云う事。

【Speaker's profile】
Along with the 400 Years Festival celebrating the founding of the city of Matsue, January, 2011 saw the formation of "Matsue's Young Warriors"––a group designed to preserve and sustain Matsue Castle and its surrounding areas. However, the group disbanded when the 400 Years Festival officially ended in December of the same year. In March, 2012, the group was re-organized for the purpose of spreading the spirit of Matsue's samurai. Today, Matsue's Young Warriors give out samurai armor as well as clothing matching that of Japan's samurai age. With the notion of Matsue being a samurai town, they meet many people and direct them as needed. And despite those that ridicule them for their old-fashioned spirit, they press on hoping to bring life to Japan starting from the castle itself. For this talk, Mr. Kamejiro will teach us the secret to applying one's weakness to his/her own advantage using luck, advantages, and peace through Matsue Castle. In other words, he will discuss a difficult history, simplify it for you, and hope that you would use it in many ways as you see fit.
