How do you solve a problem that is bigger than you? Perhaps even larger than life? Take a Moon Shot and come up with an ambitious, innovative and unexpected idea to solve it. Find a ground-breaking solution that might seem crazy at first, and prove your point.

Innovators and entrepreneurs from around the globe have been working on Moon Shot ideas for hundreds of years. They love the challenge of the difficult or seemingly impossible and the potential to have an impact on people’s lives.

So what is the next big thing? What are the radical and exciting technological ideas for the future? And who are the people trying to tackle them? Our world today is shaped by people with new and fresh ideas. Join us at the upcoming TEDxBerlinSalon on September 3rd to meet them.

J.Lamotta | 1. Song: Back in town, 2. Song: That’s what I call (freedom)

J.Lamotta (speak: Jay Lamotta Suzume) was born in Tel Aviv to a family with Moroccan roots. Her relationship with music actually started with the blues, singing tunes by Lightnin' Hopkins and R.L Burnside. Later as a teenager she fell in love with Jazz, and the sound of Billie Holiday, John Coltrane and Sun Ra. In 2014 and just before finishing her Bachelor degree in Jazz, she decided to relocate to Berlin - instead of New York - where she was supposed to finish her studies. In Berlin, she discovered her passion for soul and hip-hop through the sounds of Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield and J Dilla. That was also when she began flipping samples, producing her own beats, and singing on them, as well as rapping, playing trumpet, percussion, synthesizer & the guitar. She has independently released several self-produced EPs: "Dedicated To" (2015) "Grains of Sand" (2016) "Better Now" (2016) and "State of Being" (2017). In September 2016 she formed her own seven-piece band, "The Dizzy Sparrow", to perform her beats live. "Conscious Tree" is her first official release. It's being released in December 2017 by Jakarta Records. EPK & PRESS PICTURES: bit.ly/JLamotta_Press facebook.com/jlamottasuzume soundcloud.com/jay-lamotta-1 instagram.com/j.lamotta.suzume
