Photographer Vincent Laforet Gives a TEDx Talk About His AIR Project

Photographer Vincent Laforet dazzled the world’s eyes this past year with his project titled AIR, which shows dazzling views of world cities, as seen from the open door of a helicopter thousands of feet above ground. We’ve featured sets from New York, Las Vegas, and Paris, and now there’s a new photo book that puts the photos on 228 giant pages.

Laforet recently gave this 20-minute talk at TEDxSanFrancisco about how this project started with a Men’s Health magazine assignment on “the science and nature of coincidence.” From there, we hear how it turned into a stunning series that has spanned continents.
