Brilliant Teens Shack Up in the Bay Area to Bring Their $100K Ideas to Life

A bunch of talented teens all under 20 years old move in together. Sounds like the plot of a new MTV show, but for the winners of the $100,000 Thiel Fellowship, it’s reality. In this episode of Teen Technorati, the fellows give us a tour of their San Francisco and Oakland apartments, where they’re working on their projects and bringing their ideas to life.

[Narrator] 20 Thiel winners, all under age 20.

$100,000 to drop out of school and pursue our dreams.

This is Teen Technorati.

Each of the Thiel houses has a name.

Our house is the Wissenschaft House, which

means the House of bet365体育赛事.

The German Flags are kind of a joke.

My home is an absolutely magnificent place.

I live in a house with two biochemists,

a bioinformaticist and a hardware hacker.

So we have quite a diverse set of people here.

This is the movie room, which I share with my house.

We usually don't actually watch movies or TV.

Instead we talk about new discoveries and

read papers on the screen.

There is a computer there and it's mainly

just used for browsing the internet.

This is my little safe space.

Well I need to take pictures of everything

because my parents are freaking out.

This is one of my, like, lucky stones.

It's supposed to help me focus and concentrate on

things, which I really need to work on.

Because I really think I have a very, very,

I have a deficit when it comes to, like, focusing.

I like to have my to-dos visible.

Because I find that far more motivating.

And so I've broken it down into my self-improvement section.

I have the developing my math and physics intuition section.

I have very low priority section, the done section,

and of course the goals for today.

My project has changed since the pitches.

I was previously working on

assisted mobility technology.

And then I thought to myself,

Why am I working on assisted

mobility when I can completely

replace biological functionality.

An example, I think, Grasp.

And my Neuroprosthetic hand reads the

signal, sees that I wanted to grasp and

moves the appropriate joint angles.

I am working on making Neuroprosthetics

learn more diverse set of actions,

more quickly by adjusting their algorithims.

I have many side projects and one of

those side projects is this pure mathematics project.

I'm currently reading a book on Applied Algebraic Systems.

In actuality categories and sets are very different.

Or I could talk about the Collatz Conjecture.

I'm sorry, I want to talk about all the math.

You should definitely check out all the books.

Because they're supposed to be chosen by a

designer who designed everything here.

So you should, literally, judge the books by their cover.

They have, like, a bunch of books about

business or starting a start up, I guess.

So, sort of subliminal messaging going on right here.

The main subject matter actually began

with a face and a birds mask.

I started out with painting and I usually sketch.

So turning to a medium such as painters tape.

Which you have no ability to shade, is quite difficult.

I would say that the artistic choices here

are mainly focused around Parallelism.

And keeping, as my friend Chris Walker says,

Symmetry within the asymmetry.

This is a toy that I used to make when I was little.

In which you can explore waves.

This is where my roommates and I make music together

and sing along.

It's Yamaha, and it's a classical guitar.

And I have a fixed schedule, I wake up at a

certain time, go to sleep at a certain time.

Like have these periods of time where I'm most creative.

I can get to know them and then work the most

during those timings.

So the guitar is actually part of that.

You wanna haircut?

I would actually come here.

This is also Haircuts Today,

just like the Furniture Today.

We could also do it tomorrow, I think.

Oh my, yeah.

[Alexander] Are they only open today or are they

open tomorrow also, cause it doesn't say

on their sign.

Really what we eat here is apples and quite

a lot of protein bars.

(laughs)

This better be a good burrito.

I've never eaten a burrito like this in my life.

Do you feel like you've started already

or do you feel like it hasn't set in yet?

Not yet, because there are moments

when I feel like what I'm doing doesn't

sort of matter at all.

And like, I feel like super-crushed but then what I

usually do is I go in and I read like tech-rens,

you know all these others, that if these people can go out

and get funding and like, speak to investors

and have a product out there, why can't I do it?

100%

Yeah.

I've been given this amazing opportunity but

I find that if somebody tells me that something is

too challenging or that I can't do it.

I just want to do it more.

It gives me more motivation.

of Teen Technorati when we peer into the

future at NASA.
