Wireless technology...in the 1920s? | Roni Pramaditia | TEDxJakarta

Roni Pramaditia came to Mount Puntang to research on Silvery Gibbons. Yet when he stumbled into a piece of history, the discovery was beyond what he had expected to find. What happened in this site, almost 90 years ago, when the Dutch East Indies were here and needed a way to communicate back home? Through striking visuals, Roni takes us on a journey to uncover Java's first wireless radio communication technology.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
