Comments on: Why design? Philippe Starck on TED.com http://blog.ted.com/2007/12/04/starck/ The TED Blog shares interesting news about TED, TEDTalks video, the TED Prize and more. Thu, 23 May 2013 09:20:36 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Magnus Lindkvist http://blog.ted.com/2007/12/04/starck/comment-page-1/#comment-438 Tue, 30 Nov 1999 00:00:00 +0000 http://blog-staging.ted.com/2007/12/starck/#comment-438 I was a bit disappointed by Mr Starck’s speech back in March. He’s obviously such a gifted designer and I presume he has thousands of stories but instead of focusing on his craft, he rants on about bigger things and the outcome, I think, is a lot more pretentious and therefore a lot less interesting. BTW, dropping the faux-humility (“I think my job is absolutely useless”) would suit him better. “Don’t be som humble – you are not that great” was some great advice I was once given.

Anyway, my complaint is that the Video to Desktop can’t be imported to iTunes and thus not available in iPod for viewing during transit.

Anyway, thanks TED for all the talk video.

Strack is not here to give answers or wondrous insight that will poof! make everyone become better designers. He is here to answer basic questions that we trouble us, but we are not aware off.

That passed. Now you have a duty. Invent a new story. Invent a new poetry. The only rule is, we have not to have any idea about the next story. We give you white pages. Invent. We give you the best tools, the best tools, and now, do it. ”

this brought a tear to my eye… we should realize this, and allow our children and future generations to create and build on their own – more importantly we should EMPOWER them to build and create on their own… give them the power, imagination and passion to go beyond what little we have come up with in our time…

bravo… genius…

He hit on a he called the baby factor that I found the very intriguing.
