In the video, a man is standing on a stage in front of a large audience. He is wearing a blue shirt and glasses, and is holding a small object in his hand. The man is speaking and making hand gestures as he talks. Behind him, there is a large screen displaying the word \"TED\" in red letters. The lighting on the stage is dim, with a spotlight focused on the man. The audience is not visible in the video, but the setting suggests that this is a formal event or conference.
