SUMMARY:In the Shadow Beyond the Pines
DESCRIPTION:“Out here\, freaking out can get you killed. You just need to have faith. And besides\, this fire is sacred. It’ll keep us safe”  – George  \nSet in modern times but steeped in a dark and haunting past\, this atmospheric ghost story explores the shadows of Indigenous life and lore with a hint of humour.  \nAmid the mysteries of the vast wilderness of northern Manitoba\, three young men wrestle with the loss of their friend by reclaiming the cultural practice of lighting a sacred fire.

SUMMARY:TedXWaverley
DESCRIPTION:We live in a world running at full volume. Updates\, algorithms\, opinions\, pressure. Amid all that noise\, harmony feels like a luxury. But what if harmony isn’t quietness\, it’s clarity? What if balance isn’t the middle point between extremes\, but the art of knowing when to move\, when to pause\, and when to listen?\nTEDxWaverley was born to be that space: a human-scale event where ideas\, art\, and emotion meet in perfect tempo. We believe intelligence is not only rational\, it’s emotional\, intuitive\, and shared. When we mix logic with empathy\, data with music\, and ambition with kindness\, something new happens: wisdom emerges.\nOur goal is to help people feel and think better\, not just know more. We don’t sell tickets: we craft experiences that give people back a sense of balance\, between doing and being\, learning and resting\, thinking and feeling. We want every talk\, every pause\, every sound and color in the room to remind people of one truth: that progress and peace can coexist.\nAs a team\, we’re the guardians of calm in a noisy world. We design with empathy\, communicate with transparency\, and keep our focus on people\, not metrics. Our success isn’t measured in followers or views\, it’s measured in the quiet “Oh! Now I get it”  moments our audience carries home.\nTEDxWaverley stands for creative thought with human warmth. For elegance without ego. For innovation with purpose. This is HARMONY: The Art of Balance\, not a slogan\, but the rhythm we live and work by.
