  • to say all the art on the internet is the same is so close minded it hurts, computers make south park and they make avatar. also tons of artist make art in their spare time cause they enjoy it and realize they cant make a living from it. this is the first bigthink speaker i have completely disagreed with

  • ...just like pen and paper removed the most powerful instrument of art before it - the chalk and stone tablet.

  • Great interview. Very thought provoking.

  • So insightful!

  • there's a lot of "artists" in general i like and i think all Glaser is trying to point is that some designers miss out on the real concept of being creative and having vision versus becoming dependent on a tool period. whether it's a computer or a paint brush, you have to see it first and not with your eyes.

    ask Stevie Wonder.

  • Great, great… I worry that there will be a lot of negative comments from those who do not understand the nature and 'business' of design. Understand where he is coming from before you dismiss his opinion - I know a creative director who was yearning for the days of old school linears because now the roughs look so final that the client makes comments like, "I thought this guy was supposed to be wearing a blue shirt…" Just one element of what I get from Glaser's comments… dang… need more

  • … space…

  • Notice: This video is on a very limited medium.

  • No, design is an abstract concept that does not get ruined and goes on being what I just said it is.

  • @praheresey Oooo, I like that. The concept of design is abstract while the product is concrete. Nice juxtaposition.

  • Look at his body of work before passing him off an some old geezer. He makes some valid points! Listen to his whole talk.....There's an awful lot of cutting and pasting of both images and ideas in electronic design. This man's the real thing.

  • there are some real artwork out there like the ones made by comicbook artists and the real graffiti artists who really use spraypaints to tell other where they've been and maybe some gay designers who make clothes LOL

  • Its really amazing how many IGNORANT people there are out in the world, who profess they are 'graphic designers', yet DON'T KNOW the likes of Milton Glaser, Herb Lubalin or Paul Rand. Simply INCREDIBLE!

    PerennialLucidity, do some homework already and learn something important about the history of your profession!

  • @SaleyDesign

    Because knowing people can help you draw... While Lucidity may be simply ignorant of a trivial aspect concerning his/her profession, your arrogance *of* it is probably the more crippling of the two handicaps by far.

  • @SaleyDesign lol

  • This guy doesn't look like he knows all the artistic software that is available on the internet, some of which mock the effects of drawing and painting on paper of various roughnesses.

  • rachul

    This guy? Do you have any idea who Milton Glaser is?

  • some old nerd.

  • pereny,

    he's a fucking truly original creative genius... but then you're just some kid with a computer like a billion other people...so how would you know?

  • What does he mean by "what is real"?

  • what matters, people

  • "Like a prehistoric bird sleepless before an ecology that has transformed itself. "

    Ideas on how supposedly new technological innovations limit our abilities to express ourselves creatively seem to me to be missing the point, especially when combined with the nostalgic notion that somehow earlier generations have already achieved the pinnacle of some technology.

  • whats up with the oreo on his head

  • don't make fun of uncle festus's brother
