The curator of The Pangeon: Graham Morehead Speaks at TEDx Dirigo.

His topic: Save the Urchin Fishery With This One Weird Trick!

Graham Morehead is interested in language and thought. An improbable series of events led him to study computer science and the green sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis. Studying under James Wilson, an economist at the University of Maine, Graham was introduced to the field of complex adaptive systems, a new tool for understanding the ecology of sea urchins, human-natural coupled systems, economies, and perhaps even language and thought.

Graham studied physics in Boston and Madrid, worked for a number of tech startups in Boston, and then came to the University of Maine. Graham holds a patent for a desktop supercomputer. He loves to travel, loves the outdoors, and is an optimist who believes we have it in ourselves to solve all our problems. He is currently the head of IT at RH Foster and curator of The Pangeon.

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.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
