Yves Behar: Creating objects that tell stories


 
   


http://www.ted.com Designer Yves Behar digs up his creative roots to discuss some of the iconic objects he's created (the Leaf lamp, the Jawbone headset). Then he turns to the witty, surprising, elegant objects he's working on now -- including the "$100 laptop."

Cool video. ;)One thing seemed kinda weird to me though. New York giving out condoms. I mean, the idea is fine and all that but seriously.. I kinda doubt that the price of condoms is the biggest issue in the USA. lol Doesn't it just promote a "It's ok to be a cheap ass." kinda feeling? :PIf you get your girlfriend pregnant because condoms are too expensive for you, there's something horribly wrong with you. ;D

Why do you think PETA and creationists and other cult influences want to get into schools?

People are educated in their own way. All you want is to convert creationists into evolutionists. When the theory of evolution has as many holes as the other one. :/

Well, gusphraba, I work with kids for a living, and I laughed because the picture was cute. The kid had a huge grin. It was the nature of the picture that made me laugh, not the notion of a kid making his own little paper computer.

I don't know why they're laughing when they see the kid with the self made computer. When we were kids we would always create paper versions of gameboys and stuff. In every nintendo mag all around the world you can see kids submitting them. They don't seem to know a lot about kids, it would have been surprising if the kid wouldn't have made one.

Its just amazing how teaching people about technology can help them far more than just telling them "oh we will fix everything, you dont have to do anything."
zbambam5 (December 31, 1969 at 3:59 pm)
Exactly. And that will never happen when they are being given food as handouts you damn idiot. You have to teach them for them to help themselves. Yes food and humanitarian aid is wonderful, but unless you educate they will never take control of the situation. And to me it honestly sounds like you just completely changed your stance."Literacy, healthcare, agriculture, government; these things need to come first", and where do these things come from. Technology and education. Learn something.

I honestly love them. Showing people how ignorant and arrogant they are.

Thats the difficult question. You cannot educate people who do not want to be educated. Perfect example: Creationists/ID theorists. Really, the only way to educate is to teach the children. They're able to absorb much more information a lot easier than adults. Which is why educating the children would be the best way to go. They learn, then help. Only way to fix a nation is to have the people of that nation help out.
