The Great Refunking

by Engenius Team / Wednesday, 06 February 2013 / Published in 2013: By Design

Eddie Smith, a member of our hard-wroking Program Team, offers a little insight into a talk by Tim Tv, one of Greenville’s favorite Funk Masters.  We promise, it will get clearer as you read on.

Maybe you’re a victim of a serious cultural problem—one that no one seems to be talking about. Are you sitting down? Good.

Because this might be hard to hear…

Maybe—just maybe—somewhere along the way, you were de-funked.

No!!!!!

Oh yes. And it’s OK. The hard part is over. You’ve admitted it. The next step is recovery, and I have some really good news. Circus performer, speaker, entertainer, artist, and philosopher, Tim Tv, is here to help.

Whether you’re a funkless whiteboy or, more generally, feel trapped in the web woven by that metaphor, you should be paying attention to Tim on March 22nd. Close attention.

Because on that date, he will unleash his Hetero Whiteboy Fashion Victim Recovery and Rejuvenation Programme on the audience at TEDxGreenville 2013—and then, the world.

Rest easy, hipless heteros. Funk is not dead. Funk lives… in each of us. And Tim’s going to restore it.
