Tom Thum: The orchestra in my mouth | TED

Prevoditelj: Ivan Stamenković Recezent: Mladen Barešić

My name is Tom,

Ime mi je Tom,

and I've come here today to come clean

i danas sam ovdje da bih razjasnio

about what I do for money.

na koji način zarađujem za život.

Basically, I use my mouth in strange ways

U osnovi, ja koristim svoja usta na neobične načine

in exchange for cash.

u zamjenu za lovu.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

I usually do this kind of thing in seedy downtown bars

Obično to činim u neuglednim barovima

and on street corners,

i na uličnim uglovima gradova,

so this mightn't be the most appropriate setting,

pa ovo možda i nije najpogodnije mjesto,

but I'd like to give you guys a bit of a demonstration

ali volio bih vam pokazati

about what I do.

što i kako ja to radim.

(Beatboxing)

(Beatboxing)

And now, for my next number,

A sad, sa sljedećom stvari,

I'd like to return to the classics.

volio bih se vratiti klasici.

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

We're going to take it back,

Vratit ćemo se,

way back,

daleko natrag,

back into time.

natrag u prošlost.

(Beatboxing: "Billie Jean")

(Beatboxing: "Billie Jean")

♫ Billie Jean is not my lover ♫

♫ Billie Jean is not my lover ♫

♫ She's just a girl who claims that I am the one ♫

♫ She's just a girl who claims that I am the one ♫

♫ But the kid is not my son ♫

♫ But the kid is not my son ♫

(Applause) All right.

(Pljesak) U redu.

Wassup.

Šta ima.

Thank you very much, TEDx.

Puno hvala, TEDx.

If you guys haven't figured it out already,

Ako već i sami dosad niste zaključili,

my name's Tom Thum, and I'm a beatboxer,

moje je ime Tom Thum, i ja sam beatboxer, .

which means all the sounds that you just heard

što znači da su svi zvukovi koje ste upravo čuli

were made entirely using just my voice,

nastali u potpunosti korištenjem moga glasa,

and the only thing was my voice.

samo i jedino moga glasa.

And I can assure you

I uvjeravam vas

there are absolutely no effects

da apsolutno nikakvih efekata nema

on this microphone whatsoever.

na ovom mikrofonu, ni u kojem obliku.

And I'm very, very stoked —

I jako sam, jako uzbuđen ---

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

You guys are just applauding for everything. It's great.

Vi, ljudi, plješćete svemu. To je sjajno.

Look at this, Mom! I made it!

Vidi ovo, mama! Uspio sam!

I'm very, very stoked to be here today,

Jako sam uzbuđen što sam danas ovdje,

representing my kinfolk

i predstavljam sebi slične,

and all those that haven't managed to make a career

kao i sve one koji nisu uspjeli napraviti karijeru

out of an innate ability for inhuman noisemaking.

na temelju prirođene sposobnosti proizvođenja neljudskih zvukova.

Because it is a bit of a niche market,

Jer, to je nekakva tržišna niša,

and there's not much work going on,

u kojoj se ne događa ništa posebno,

especially where I'm from.

osobito ne ondje odakle sam ja.

You know, I'm from Brisbane,

Znate, ja sam iz Brisbanea,

which is a great city to live in.

sjajnog grada za život.

Yeah! All right! Most of Brisbane's here. That's good.

To! Većina je iz Brisbanea! To je dobro.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

You know, I'm from Brizzy,

Znate, iz Brizzyja sam,

which is a great city to live in,

sjajnog grada za život,

but let's be honest --

ali, budimo iskreni --

it's not exactly the cultural hub of the Southern Hemisphere.

on baš i nije kulturni centar južne hemisfere.

So I do a lot of my work outside Brisbane

Zato dosta radim izvan Brisbanea

and outside Australia,

i izvan Australije,

and so the pursuit of this crazy passion of mine

i tako mi je ova moja luda strast

has enabled me to see

omogućila da vidim

so many amazing places in the world.

toliko mnoštvo čudesnih mjesta u svijetu.

So I'd like to share with you, if I may, my experiences.

Stoga bih želio, ako smijem, podijeliti s vama svoja iskustva.

So ladies and gentlemen,

Dakle, dame i gospodo,

I would like to take you on a journey

želio bih vas povesti na putovanje

throughout the continents

diljem kontinenata

and throughout sound itself.

i kroza sam zvuk.

We start our journey in the central deserts.

Putovanje otpočinjemo u pustinjama središnje Australije.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

And before we reach our final destination,

I prije no stignemo na krajnje naše odredište,

ladies and gentlemen,

dame i gospodo,

I would like to share with you some technology

podijelio bih s vama nešto od tehnologije

that I brought all the way from the thriving metropolis of Brisbane.

što sam je ponio iz rastućeg velegrada, Brisbanea.

These things in front of me here are called Kaoss Pads,

Ove stvari preda mnom zovu se Kaoss Pads

and they allow me to do a whole lot of different things

i one mi omogućavaju da sa svojim glasom

with my voice.

radim mnoštvo različitih stvari.

For example, the one on the left here

Primjerice, ovaj slijeva

allows me to add

omogućava mi da svom zvuku

a little bit of reverb to my sound,

dodam malo jeke,

which gives me that --

čime dobivam taj --

(Trumpet) --

(Truba) --

flavor.

okus.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

And the other ones here,

A ove ostale,

I can use them in unison

njih mogu koristiti istodobno

to mimic the effect of a drum machine

kako bih oponašao učinak ritam-mašine,

or something like that.

ili nečeg sličnog.

I can sample in my own sounds and I can play it back

Mogu semplirati vlastite zvukove i onda ih reproducirati

just by hitting the pads here.

jednostavno udarajući po ovim jastučićima.

(Noises)

(Zvuci)

TEDx.

TEDx.

(Music)

(Glazba)

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

I got way too much time on my hands.

Imao sam previše slobodnog vremena.

And last but not least,

I posljednje, iako ne i zadnje,

the one on my right here allows me to

ovo zdesna omogućava mi da

loop loop loop loop loop loop loop loop

ponavljam ponavljam ponavljam ponavljam ponavljam ponavljam

my voice.

svoj glas.

So with all that in mind, ladies and gentlemen,

Sa svim tim na umu, dame i gospodo,

I would like to take you on a journey

želio bih vas povesti na putovanje

to a completely separate part of Earth

na jedno posve izdvojeno mjesto na Zemlji,

as I transform the Sydney Opera House

dok Operu u Sydneyu pretvaram

into a smoky downtown jazz bar.

u zadimljen jazz-bar u centru grada.

All right boys, take it away.

Dobro, dečki, počnimo.

(Music)

(Glazba)

Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you
