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."

All you ignorant ppl need to start realizing this guy is doing something awesome. Just like the guy below me, what the hell have you ever done to help kids in third world countries get to learn about how awesome technology is.Damn idiots, get a brain.

ahahahah "do they want it in their homes?"

[ApeDeng]

I've created an object that tells a story. I'm going to call it a "book".

[BriskAxe]

That's good to know.

[AtheriasLeader]

I'm glad you're talking about your feelings

[BriskAxe]

Behar uses too many fillers when he speaks.

It annoys me.

" eventually together maybe we can change the world" nice say.

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? :P

If 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?

[BecauseIs]

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.  :/

I see, thanks :)

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.
