Local favourite My Dog Sighs has recently taken a break from painting and taken to the stage in Warwick for a TED Talk which is now available for everyone to view.

TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) conferences have become famous across the planet. TED’s early emphasis was technology and design although much more recently the focus has broadened to include scientific, cultural, and academic topics.

My Dog has describes how “it was probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done professionally. The script assisters were brutal in their regular review of my drafts and my nerves from having to wait most of the day and stand on a huge stage in front of 1200 people was excruciating. But I stood up and said what I wanted to say and now I can go back to throwing paint and stamping on baked bean tins”.
