Middle East Music
Triplew.me‘s Paul Kelly joins me every other week on Nightline every other week to talk music, photography and film that is independently produced in the middle east. I never cease to be amazed by what Paul comes up with. What is clear to me, more than ever, is that the UAE and other countries in the [...]
Must Have TED Podcasts!
I make no bones about it I think that the TED idea is the best thing I ever stumbled upon as an educator. I use TED.com materials in all my classes, have collaborated on various sized TEDx events. I have even settled on producing TEDx Salon events at my University. And now there is a [...]
Thinking Technology
Rick Van Sant and I had a conversation about technology on my radio program on DubaiEye. We live in a technology enabled world but how much thought are we actually giving to that technology and its implications? The reality is not enough. Rick opens up some interesting doors for continued exploration of the ideas of [...]
TEDxAbuDhabiU Continues
TEDx events are a curious thing. What I have come to learn, and love, is that once you start a TEDx event rolling it is very difficult to get out of the way and jump free of the momentum. TEDxAbuDhabiU happened April 23, 2011 but it is far from over. Sure the speakers, organizers and [...]

Do the shirts matter?
Last night I had a very interesting conversation with Razan Masri, she is behind the shirt sensation Camiceria Design in Dubai! The idea is to give men a shirt with personality beyond a piece of driftwood. But do men really want to dress with personality? And does dressing in shirts that accent a man’s personality [...]
Re-Design YOU!
Lara Dunston on Twitter this morning pushed the idea out there that maybe destinations need to consider a re-design. I think this is a golden opportunity for organizations to think and re-design how they communicate, why they communicate and what they communicate. The problem is organizations BIG and SMALL seem to have no idea where [...]
