The Value of Nothing: Out of Nothing Comes Something. 无的价值：无中生有的可能。

That was an essay I wrote when I was 11 years old and I got a B+. 这是一篇我在十一岁时写的作文，当时我拿了个乙等。

What I'm going to talk about: nothing out of something, and how we create. 今天我要谈的是创作和无中生有的艺术。

And I'm gonna try and do that within the 18-minute time span that we were told to stay within, and to follow the TED¹ commandments: 我不但要试着在大会给我的18分钟时限中完成，并且遵守TED的严格戒律：

that is, actually, something that creates a near-death experience, but near-death is good for creativity. OK. 我必须说，这些戒律的确让我有一种濒临死亡的感觉，但濒临死亡是有益于创作的。好。

So, I also want to explain, because Dave Eggers said he was going to heckle me if I said anything that was a lie, 我还想顺便提到，如果我说谎，大卫·艾格说他将会严厉地质问我。

or not true to universal creativity. And I've done it this way for half the audience, who is scientific. 或是说的东西不能普世通用。这个图是为了听众中的科学家画的。

When I say we, I don't mean you, necessarily; I mean me, and my right brain, 当我使用“我们”的时候，我不一定是指你，而是说我和我的右脑，

my left brain and the one that's in between that is the censor² and tells me what I'm saying is wrong. 我的左脑，还有在它们中间那负责审查的东西，如果我说错了什么，它将会提醒我。

And I'm going do that also by looking at what I think is part of my creative process, 我也将会谈论我个人的创作过程，

which includes a number of things that happened, 那包含了一些不同的事件，

actually -- the nothing started even earlier than the moment in which I'm creating something new. 无在更早之前发生，在我开始创作之前就发生了。

And that includes nature, and nurture³, and what I refer to as nightmares. 那包括了天份，滋养，还有我叫做梦魇的东西。
