- www.ted.com Great design is a never-ending journey of discovery -- for which it helps to pack a healthy sense of humor. Sociologist and surfer-turned-designer David Carson walks through a gorgeous (and often quite funny) slide deck of his work and found images.

Just arrived in Barcelona this week, saw the big B, and had to see this again. One of my favourite talks.
I can across this Ted talk a few days ago and will be revisiting it throughout the rest of my design career. David Carson is truly remarkable.
I show this video to so many of my classes from interactive design to Photoshop :) Very entertaining, thank you.
Wonderful concepts and well put. Thanks for yet another great TED talk!
Seriously love this guy, he's my inspiration.
Love his wit!
16:30 When I worked for a newspaper in the advertising department and we received files with missing fonts from agencies, we used to threaten them to replace them with Zapf Dingbats next time they would do that
that was a great talk, i loved every moment, he has such great ideas, a great eye for design, and what a great talker! (the car parking note was just class, so funny!) i think there is no doubt he is one of the greatest designers out there! would love to meet him some day!
amazing, love his work.
Very good video, the information is clear.
thanks TED
This is as entertaining as it is informative. Now that's inspiring.
Love Dave Carson! Great talk.
great work.
This would have been easier on the eyes if it was done in HD.
HD ? 12 yrs ago?
@@memesflowi the comment is 12 years old. Yea they had HD back then.
@@Hotteststewpot This was filmed in 2003.
that rolex commercial at the end was pretty intense.
best video so far
Great talk. Love the Microsoft bashing.
EL DISEÑO Y DESCUBRIMIENTO ES LA FORMA DE EXPLORAR LAS COSAS,
22:06 ❤
brilliant
First time I see a commercial after a video and not at the beginning. That is so great.
If you want to see the commercial or not is up to you. that way you do not end up Hating the product or service advertised. Sorry 4 the off topic. BTW Carson is a MAESTRO!
that was GREAT! :-D
Load the HD versions~!!!
XVX for life, R.A.S.H. 'til death.
We're designers. How could we ever afford a Rolex?
Right, you're making a point about airliners, which is mostly about creature comforts. The 747 was built on computers in the 70s. There's nothing magical about physics that it's just impossible to simulate. There may be some human error in which simulations to run, but it's perfectly possible.
好幽默風趣的人
He is this shiznit!!!
And in 3D

Genius
You seriously don't think the military is testing the next jet fighter on computers right now? You even mentioned UAVs. It's established stuff.
Heavy
Yes, I mean any R/C or AI controlled plane, since that would not necessitate the need for humans in the plane, would it?

You're not getting it. Physics are very well understood now. Computers are only getting faster. And radios are well understood as well. It's not a huge jump to test a whole plane in software and remotely. Hell, you could practically just test it in X-Plane, and that doesn't calculate any of the strains on the materials or any internals.
so your saying i shouldnt be a test pilot.
Robots.
А есть на русском ?😢
The who Spread of People Magazines 9/11 edition was tacky as F
WUT?
Planes can be completely simulated in software, and be flown remotely. I see no further need for real test pilots.
More like done 50 years ago.
Dingbat
his designs look unattractive and not appealing-but that may be because it was 2003
I hate this stuff; it's hard to read.
