    I saw this presentation not long after it came out. It's still one of the best TED talks available. He get's all of his ideas over by simply talking. He holds the audiences attention with gallic charm but his stories are illuminating and on point. Excellent.

    you have re said what he stated. What he was talking about was evolution. That evolution is in our hands, we must give the tools to the people around us and let them innovate and invent new ideas, design and etc. The future is in our hands and we must never think that we are the only ones out there, but to instead create a story that will hopefulyl continue this evolution of society for the next 4 billion years.

    I also studied ID, I always enjoyed Starks communication through his work but today was the first time I actually heard him speak.
    For all the stuff that is produced in this world I still don't understand why there is a shroud of mystery around the design profession.

      He is indeed a funny person. But the funniest part is that in the designer world he is considered as the best "pretty maker".. His juicer is barely usable.

    @Reinos 15 років тому +1

    regardless of all this, the simple fact remains that God is so many things to so many people. If some want to attribute design and existence to God/muse/etc., then so be it! same if people want to attribute it to their own talent and skill, again, so be it! in the end, we all are viewing the world through our own filters and lenses. I say this: bravo to those who are willing to think about these things, for their ideas give us inspiration to further ourselves, for better or worse.

    Is that a surprise? No, I know beyond the shadow of any doubt there is God behind beauty and all of creation - it's the most fundamental point every one of those "genius" scientists, designers, and other professionals at TED miss so badly - the obvious intelligence behind the most complex and beautiful natural world including ourselves.

    But the fact that it is so simple is purely BECAUSE apple have invested so much money into it's design. Look at the original iPod, then compare it with the current model. Jonathan Ive and his team have been working hard DESIGNING to make the interface as clean and simple as possible. The fact that the design is invisible is testament to the amount of design work that has gone into this product.

    @mnewlyn I think he refers to our species and all our problems ahead. I think he means that mankind have to unite to reasch our next evolutionary step and avoid killing our own species for short term gain.

  • @poushk
    @poushk 15 років тому

    When I said design will be dead soon, I was talking about the minimalists lines of an ipod for exemple! I can draw just a cube with 3 buttons and sell it as an mp4 device.
    Starck said himself, design is useless, yeah he really said that, he also said that he will stop design in two years, publicity stunt? I don't think so

    @poushk
    That's hilarious, name one instance where technology has superseded design. Design and technology are not competitors, they are collaborators. Without design, our technology would be awkward and emotionless.
    Good design is not simply making something look pretty after it has been fully developed technologically.

    Saying that God is behind behind beauty is disrespectful for the work of these people.

  • @GeorgeI
    @GeorgeI 15 років тому

    I respect your point of view. However my statement below has nothing to do with disrespecting designers' work. Notice below I'm talking about the creation, i.e. the natural world, the VERY beautiful world from which these very designers take inspiration (ever seen Ross Lovegrove's work?) and give 0 credit to the source of all nature - God the Creator. I believe it was Sir Isaac Newton who said that he only needs to look at one finger to understand that God is behind its marvelous design.

    it will come thicker, maybe his size will be divide by 3, ...
    it's still design but I really think that one day technology will permit us to have that's what I was tryign to point
    I know there will always be designers, we need them I was exagerating a lil bit, i'm not crazy

  • @nzcatt
    @nzcatt 15 років тому

    Are you trying to say there is no design in the iPod? Minimalism isn't the absence of design, it's the absence of embellishment. Embellishment DOES NOT EQUAL design.

  • @6sushi9
    @6sushi9 15 років тому

    I'm sorry but I have to desagree: I'm not a beliver, I'm an atheist and I respect all kinds of religions. The fact that I found not right is that you have the tendendency to see God, or every other entity, in all the human achievements. You are not able to separate the two things: it doesn't mean that if a designer or an architect or a painter makes a great, beautiful and astonishing work that's because of God: it's just because of the person's ability and hard work.

    some good points (which are partially mentioned in the comments) and some bad points as well...
    I didn't get what he means by " we are the god" ... if he literally means what he said I disagree cuz as he said we are limited. the ideology of God is that God isn't limited. It's possible to change the definitions like to say God is the powerful one. but it just cuz confusion and sometimes insults some people.

    If degs iss a cynicall and fantasy disaigneg... it is Stark himself! And He is pretty good at it. I do value the contribution of flamboyant irreverent designers such as Stark. But "entertrainment" design can only go so far. I find it hard to see the long term contribution that designers such as Stark could make not only to fashion, but to industry itself. He is actually one of the most arrogant designers I have heard.... even for a French man!!!!

    Microsoft don't know anything about uncluttered interfaces that they haven't learned from Apple's success, that's why they can't sell the Zune.

    Also, to live in a civilisation and to leave a blank page to the offspring is an oxymoron, but if he's thinking abolishing the school system, count me in!
