Five years ago, I stood on the TED stage,
and I spoke about my work.
and I spoke about my work.

五年前，我还身强体健的站在
TED的舞台上，讲述我自己的工作，
TED的舞台上，讲述我自己的工作，
00:17
But one year later,

但是一年后，
00:18
I had a terrible accident as I left a pub
one dark night with friends,
one dark night with friends,

一个漆黑的夜晚，我和朋友们从酒吧
出来，经历了一场可怕的事故，
出来，经历了一场可怕的事故，
就在苏格兰。
00:22
in Scotland.

00:23
As we followed the path through a forest,
I suddenly felt a massive thud,
I suddenly felt a massive thud,
4
11870
4698
当时我们沿着森林一条路走，
我突然听到了一声巨响，
我突然听到了一声巨响，
00:28
then a second thud,
5
16592
1380
接着又是第二声巨响，
随之，我就倒在了地上。
00:29
and I fell to the ground.
6
17996
1667
00:31
I had no idea what had hit me.
7
19687
1984
我不知道是什么撞到了我。
00:34
I later found out that when
the gate was opened on a garden,
the gate was opened on a garden,
8
22211
4422
后来我发现，
原来是公园大门敞开的时候，
原来是公园大门敞开的时候，
00:38
a wild stag stampeded along the path
and ran straight into me.
and ran straight into me.
9
26657
4765
一头受惊了的野鹿在路上狂奔，
径直朝我冲了过来。
径直朝我冲了过来。
它的鹿角刺穿了我的气管和食道，
00:44
Its antler penetrated my trachea
and my esophagus
and my esophagus
10
32054
3393
00:47
and stopped at my spinal cord
and fractured my neck.
and fractured my neck.
11
35471
2895
卡在了我的脊髓里，折断了我的脖子。
00:51
My best friend found me
lying on the floor,
lying on the floor,
12
39502
2249
我的好朋友发现我躺在地上，
00:53
gurgling for help
through a hole in my neck.
through a hole in my neck.
13
41775
2508
脖子穿了个洞，
汩汩的冒着鲜血在求救。
汩汩的冒着鲜血在求救。
00:56
And we locked eyes,
and although I couldn't speak,
and although I couldn't speak,
14
44641
2682
我们相视一眼，她便心领神会，
即便我无法开口说话。
00:59
she could understand what I was thinking.
15
47347
2016
然后她告诉我，“呼吸就好了”。
01:01
And she told me, "Just breathe."
16
49387
2693
01:04
And so, whilst focusing on my breath,
I had a strong sense of calmness,
I had a strong sense of calmness,
17
52659
4061
在我集中注意力呼吸的时候，
我冷静的不可思议，
我冷静的不可思议，
01:08
but I was certain that I was going to die.
18
56744
2369
但是我很肯定，我很快就要死了。
01:11
Somehow, I was content with this,
19
59137
1644
某种程度上，
我对当时的反应还是很满意的。
我对当时的反应还是很满意的。
01:12
because I've always tried
to do my best in life whenever I can.
to do my best in life whenever I can.
20
60805
3113
因为我总是想在任何情况下
都努力做到最好。
都努力做到最好。
01:15
So I just continued to enjoy each breath
as one more moment --
as one more moment --
21
63942
3199
所以我继续的享受每一次呼吸，
再来一次——
再来一次——
01:19
one breath in and one breath out.
22
67165
2076
吸气，又呼气。
01:21
An ambulance came,
I was still fully conscious,
I was still fully conscious,
23
69813
2349
救护车来了，我依然完全神智清醒，
01:24
and I analyzed everything on the journey,
because I'm a scientist:
because I'm a scientist:
24
72186
3229
在去医院的路上，我研究着周围的一切，
因为我是个科学家：
因为我是个科学家：
01:27
the sound of the tires on the road,
the frequency of the street lights
the frequency of the street lights
25
75439
3349
轮胎压过路面的声响，
每隔多久出现一次街灯，
每隔多久出现一次街灯，
01:30
and eventually, the city street lights.
26
78812
1939
最终，我看到了城市的街灯，
01:32
And I thought, "Maybe I will survive."
27
80775
2255
然后我想，“也许我还能活下去。”
01:35
And then I passed out.
28
83054
1745
之后，我便失去意识了。
01:38
I was stabilized at a local hospital
and then airlifted to Glasgow,
and then airlifted to Glasgow,
29
86046
4222
我的情况在当地医院有所稳定后，
便被空运到了格拉斯哥，
便被空运到了格拉斯哥，
01:42
where they reconstructed my throat
and put me in a coma.
and put me in a coma.
30
90292
3419
在那里医务人员重建了我的喉咙，
我再一次陷入了昏迷。
我再一次陷入了昏迷。
01:46
And while I was in the coma,
I had many alternate realities.
I had many alternate realities.
31
94761
3199
在我昏迷的时候，我仿佛进入了
许多不一样的现实世界，
许多不一样的现实世界，
01:49
It was like a crazy mix
of "Westworld" and "Black Mirror."
of "Westworld" and "Black Mirror."
32
97984
3633
就好像是“西部世界”和“黑镜”的疯狂组合。
01:53
But that's a whole other story.
33
101641
2066
但是那完全是另一个故事了。
01:56
My local TV station reported live
from outside the hospital
from outside the hospital
34
104165
3654
我当地的电视台在医院外
进行了现场直播，
进行了现场直播，
01:59
of a Cambridge scientist
who was in a coma,
who was in a coma,
35
107843
3445
报道了一名来自剑桥的科学家，
陷入了昏迷，
陷入了昏迷，
至今生死未卜，
醒后也不知道她能否行动说话。
醒后也不知道她能否行动说话。
02:03
and they didn't know
if she would live or die or walk or talk.
if she would live or die or walk or talk.
36
111312
3759
02:07
And a week later,
I woke up from that coma.
I woke up from that coma.
37
115855
3019
一个星期后，我从昏迷中苏醒，
02:12
And that was the first gift.
38
120163
1906
那是上天对我的第一份眷顾，
02:14
Then I had the gift to think,
the gift to move,
the gift to move,
39
122093
3151
然后上天又给予了我能够思考，
能够移动的恩赐，
能够移动的恩赐，
02:17
the gift to breathe
40
125268
2042
能够呼吸的恩赐，
02:19
and the gift to eat and to drink.
41
127334
2123
能够吃，能够喝的恩赐。
02:21
That took three and a half months.
42
129481
2288
恢复这一切耗时三个半月时间。
02:24
But there was one thing
that I never got back, though,
that I never got back, though,
43
132339
2548
但是有一件事，是我无法重拾的，
02:26
and that was my privacy.
44
134911
1729
那就是我的隐私。
02:28
The tabloid press
made the story about gender.
made the story about gender.
45
136664
2810
那些小报社对我的性别大做文章。
02:31
Look -- I'm transgender,
it's not that big a deal.
it's not that big a deal.
46
139498
3119
是这样的，我是一名跨性别者，
这件事没有什么好说的，
这件事没有什么好说的，
02:34
Like, my hair color or my shoe size
is way more interesting.
is way more interesting.
47
142641
4073
因为像我头发的颜色，或我鞋子的尺码，
都比这件事要有趣得多。
都比这件事要有趣得多。
02:39
When I last spoke here --
48
147393
1454
我上次在这儿演讲的时候 ——
02:40
(Applause)
49
148871
1151
（掌声）
我上次在这儿演讲的时候 ——
02:42
When I last spoke here --
50
150046
1199
02:43
(Applause)
51
151269
1165
（掌声）
02:44
at TED, I didn't talk about it,
because it's boring.
because it's boring.
52
152458
2710
在TED上，我没有谈及我的性别，
因为我觉得这很无聊。
因为我觉得这很无聊。
02:47
And one Scottish newspaper
ran with the headline:
ran with the headline:
53
155727
3079
但苏格兰的一份报纸标题直接是：
《变性科学家被牡鹿刺伤》
02:50
"Sex Swap Scientist Gored by Stag."
54
158830
2563
02:53
And five others did similar things.
55
161417
2223
还有另外五家报社也做了类似的事情。
02:55
And for a minute, I was angry.
56
163664
1754
有那么一刻，我真的很生气。
02:57
But then I found my calm place.
57
165442
2207
但之后，我又静下心来，
我脑子里想的是，“他们真是惹错人了，
02:59
And what ran through my head was,
"They've crossed the wrong woman,
"They've crossed the wrong woman,
58
167673
3166
03:02
and they're not going to know
what's hit them."
what's hit them."
59
170863
2269
我要给他们点颜色瞧瞧才行。”
03:05
(Laughter)
60
173156
1742
（笑声）
我是一个善良的忍者。
03:06
I'm a kindness ninja.
61
174922
1207
03:08
I don't really know what a ninja does,
62
176153
1845
虽然我不知道忍者是做什么的，
03:10
but to me, they slip through the shadows,
crawl through the sewers,
crawl through the sewers,
63
178022
3184
但于我而言，他们从影子里溜走，
沿着下水道爬行，
沿着下水道爬行，
03:13
skip across the rooftops,
64
181230
1430
飞檐走壁，
03:14
and before you know it,
they're behind you.
they're behind you.
65
182684
2012
在你察觉之前，
他们就已经在你的身后了。
他们就已经在你的身后了。
03:16
They don't turn up
with an army or complain,
with an army or complain,
66
184720
2251
他们孤军奋战，从不抱怨，
03:18
and they're laser-focused on a plan.
67
186995
1762
一旦有了计划就会一头扎进去。
03:20
So when I lay in my hospital bed,
68
188781
1803
所以，当我躺在医院病床上的时候，
03:22
I thought of my plan
to help reduce the chances
to help reduce the chances
69
190608
3025
我就想出了一个计划，
以减少类似事件的发生，
以减少类似事件的发生，
03:25
of them doing this to somebody else,
70
193657
1849
让这些报社不再这样伤害别人。
03:27
by using the system as is, and paying
the price of sacrificing my privacy.
the price of sacrificing my privacy.
71
195530
5062
我的计划就是反其道而行之，
以我的隐私为代价。
以我的隐私为代价。
03:32
What they told one million people,
I will tell 10 million people.
I will tell 10 million people.
72
200616
3887
如果他们告诉一百万个人，
那么我就告诉一千万个人。
那么我就告诉一千万个人。
03:36
Because when you're angry,
people defend themselves.
people defend themselves.
73
204887
2474
因为一般当你生气的时候，
得罪你的人会做好防御措施，
得罪你的人会做好防御措施，
03:39
So I didn't attack them,
74
207385
1360
所以如果我不直接攻击他们，
03:40
and they were defenseless.
75
208769
1504
他们就会毫无防备。
03:42
I wrote kind and calm letters
to these newspapers.
to these newspapers.
76
210297
3961
我给这些报纸写了几封
亲切而又冷静的信。
亲切而又冷静的信。
03:46
And The Sun newspaper,
the kind of "Fox News" of the UK,
the kind of "Fox News" of the UK,
77
214282
3254
之后太阳报，
这个类似英国版的“福克斯新闻”，
这个类似英国版的“福克斯新闻”，
03:49
thanked me for my "reasoned approach."
78
217560
2636
对我“理性的做法”表示了感谢。
03:52
I asked for no apology,
no retraction, no money,
no retraction, no money,
79
220696
3873
我不求道歉，也不需要他们撤回报道，
更不要求赔偿，
更不要求赔偿，
03:56
just an acknowledgment
that they broke their own rules,
that they broke their own rules,
80
224593
2579
我只是让他们承认，他们这么做确实越界了，
03:59
and what they did was just wrong.
81
227196
2383
而这样做是不对的。
04:03
And on this journey,
I started to learn who they are,
I started to learn who they are,
82
231022
3624
在解决这件事的过程中，
我也开始了解到他们是什么样的群体，
我也开始了解到他们是什么样的群体，
04:06
and they began to learn who I am.
83
234670
2269
而他们也开始了解我是一个什么样的人，
04:08
And we actually became friends.
84
236963
1810
事实上我们还成为了朋友。
04:10
I've even had a few glasses of wine
with Philippa from The Sun since then.
with Philippa from The Sun since then.
85
238797
3785
自那以后，我还和太阳报的工作人员
菲利帕喝过几杯红酒。
菲利帕喝过几杯红酒。
04:15
And after three months, they all agreed,
86
243273
2364
三个月以后，他们所有人都同意，
04:17
and the statements
were published on a Friday,
were published on a Friday,
87
245661
2152
周五时发表一份承认错误的声明，
04:19
and that was the end of that.
88
247837
1388
之后这事就翻篇了，
04:21
Or so they thought.
89
249249
1247
他们大概也是这样想的。
04:22
On the Saturday,
I went on the evening news,
I went on the evening news,
90
250520
3077
在周六的时候，我上了晚间新闻，
04:25
with the headline "Six National
Newspapers Admit They Were Wrong."
Newspapers Admit They Were Wrong."
91
253621
4237
标题是“全国六家报社承认错了”。
主持人问我说，
04:29
And the anchor said to me,
92
257882
1504
“但是你不认为我们记者的本职工作，
04:31
"But don't you think
it's our job as journalists
it's our job as journalists
93
259410
2371
04:33
to sensationalize a story?"
94
261805
1790
就是通过炒作来哗众取宠吗？”
04:35
And I said, "I was laying
on a forest floor, gored by a stag.
on a forest floor, gored by a stag.
95
263619
4770
然后我说：“我当时被鹿角扎了，
还痛苦的倒在森林里，
还痛苦的倒在森林里，
04:40
Is that not sensational enough?"
96
268413
1563
难道这还不够渲染博取眼球吗？”
04:42
(Laughter)
97
270000
2722
（笑声）
04:44
And I was now writing the headlines.
98
272746
1768
我当时就在那拟订了几个新闻标题。
04:46
My favorite one was,
99
274538
1626
我最喜欢的一个是，
04:48
"The stag trampled on my throat,
and the press trampled on my privacy."
and the press trampled on my privacy."
100
276188
4230
"牡鹿踩踏了我的喉咙，
而媒体践踏了我的隐私。”
而媒体践踏了我的隐私。”
04:52
It was the most read piece
of BBC News online that day.
of BBC News online that day.
101
280442
3270
而那篇文章也收获了当天
BBC在线新闻的最高阅读量。
BBC在线新闻的最高阅读量。
04:55
And I was kind of having fun.
102
283736
1753
我觉得还挺有意思的。
04:58
And by the end of my week of media,
103
286379
1778
在结束了为期一周的新闻采访后，
05:00
I started to use my newfound
voice and platform
voice and platform
104
288181
2880
我开始使用我这失而复得的声音，
和新构建的媒体平台，
和新构建的媒体平台，
去传递爱心与善良的信息。
05:03
to spread a message of love and kindness.
105
291085
2158
05:05
And when I had the minute
of anger and hatred
of anger and hatred
106
293608
3064
在我对那些媒体和记者，
05:08
towards those press and journalists,
107
296696
1826
感到愤怒和憎恨的时候，
05:10
I had to identify my inner
bigotry towards them.
bigotry towards them.
108
298546
3954
我必须得明确我内心对他们的偏见，
05:15
And I had to meet and speak
with these people
with these people
109
303188
2460
在和这些人见上一面聊一聊的时候，
05:17
without judgment.
110
305672
1150
我必须得做到公正不倚。
05:19
I had to let myself understand them,
111
307482
2143
我必须得让自己理解他们，
05:21
and in return, they began
to understand me.
to understand me.
112
309649
2714
这样反过来，他们才会开始理解我。
05:24
Well, six months later, they asked me
to join the committee
to join the committee
113
312919
2904
六个月之后，他们邀请我加入报社委员会，
05:27
that regulates the press.
114
315847
1666
来监管媒体。
05:30
And a few times a year,
I sip tea and dip biscuits
I sip tea and dip biscuits
115
318679
3531
一年几次，我喝着茶，蘸着饼干，
05:34
with the likes of Daily Mail editor
Paul Dacre, who says to me,
Paul Dacre, who says to me,
116
322234
3419
和像每日邮报的编辑
保罗·达克雷这样的人物聊天，
保罗·达克雷这样的人物聊天，
05:37
"So, Kate, how have
your last few months been?"
your last few months been?"
117
325677
2630
他问我说：
“凯特，过去的几个月你过得还好吗？”
“凯特，过去的几个月你过得还好吗？”
05:40
And I respect them.
118
328863
1321
而我也尊重他们。
05:42
And I'm now one of three
members of the public
members of the public
119
330490
2183
现在我是在（媒体界）有一席之地的
05:44
who has a seat at the table --
120
332697
1579
三名大众成员里的其中一员，
并非因我与众不同，
05:46
not because I'm different,
121
334300
1587
05:47
but because my voice counts,
just like anybody else.
just like anybody else.
122
335911
3192
而是因为我的声音也同样受到重视，
就像其他人一样。
就像其他人一样。
05:51
And the irony is,
123
339521
1500
但讽刺的是，
05:53
every now and again, I'm asked
to visit those printing presses
to visit those printing presses
124
341045
2960
隔三岔五，我就会被邀请去参观
一些印刷机，

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Kate Stone - Shepherd of electronsAt Novalia, Kate Stone and her team use ordinary printing presses to manufacture interactive electronics, which combine touch-sensitive ink technology and printed circuits into unique and cost-effective products.
Why you should listen
Born in Cheshire, England and the child of a continent-hopping engineer, Kate Stone was often left to her own devices among some of the world's most disparate cultures. Whether learning to cook rice from Gurkhas or spending time alongside a garageful of car repairmen in Borneo, Stone quickly learned that nontraditional problem-solving was often the very best kind.
At 20, Stone moved to Australia and eventually to the outback, where she was soon herding 22,000 sheep on a 120,000-acre farm. She then returned to England and began her studies in electronics at Salford University, before being recruited to do her PhD work in physics at Cambridge's Cavendish Laboratory, where her focus on moving electrons eventually led to the creation of her groundbreaking company, Novalia.
At Novalia, Stone says: "The work of my team and myself is the realization of my childhood fascinations. We put electronics into paper, and paper is all around us." Stone sees herself as a "creative scientist," blending art and science to create startling fusions of new and old technology. In addition to her work with Novalia, Stone is a member of the Editors Code of Practice committee.
