From the September 18th Facebook post by TEDxCapeMay:
Derek Selinger joins this year's TEDxCapeMay event to talk about "Why we need to dream like children".
We have been told time and time again, to “Dream big”. But this is usually not about encouraging our dreams at all … in essence, it is to just “wish”. In this performance, we will to discover how to dream again. Observing children at play gives us a window into what we have forgotten. Dreaming is an essential part of our growth, and from this foundation, we can take action and make our dreams come true!
Derek Selinger is, first and foremost, a dreamer. His dreams have taken him to many places.
Derek is an award-winning filmmaker and created a number of short films that were screened at Film Festivals throughout North America. His original work on the music video honoring veterans, “Never Been to War”, won him multiple awards including “Best Music Video”. He is a passionate entrepreneur and is involved in a number of community causes.
Derek is also an award-winning illusionist, winning such honors as the 1st Prize at the Canadian Magic Championships and “The People’s Choice Award” at the world championships. He has performed worldwide, from Las Vegas to Malaysia and on television, including his most recent performance on the CW Network’s hit show “Penn and Teller: Fool Us”.
