This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Greg Ippolito argues that in advertising, as in life, much of what we take for granted actually has little basis in reality. To unlock many of the world’s mysteries and truths, we may need to rely as much on art as we do on science.
