Abstract :
In this
talk I want to present my point of view on what representation theory is and why
it is useful.
I would
like to show, using a baby example, how classical representation theory
transforms into higher
representation theory, in particular, explaining what the latter one is. 
At the end,
I plan to make a brief overview of some recent results and open probelms in higher representation theory.
