I. Art of innovation
not important _Speaker (stanford, Cal, wildest dream) (Apple, venture capitalist, entrepreneur, advisor, Google )
_top ten format, high-tech speaker, audience track progress
_10 key points
Most company define themselves in term what they do, not benefit they provide
( define you cut ice block out of lake -> remain ice harvester
Define you freeze water centrally -> remain ice factory
Define you make mechanical gadget (refrigerator) -> remain refrigerator curve
Empowering: make you more creative, more productive, enhance and change meaning of life
(Macbook Air, if use Macintosh, it become one with you) (window have fight, wrestle ground,
defeat window)
More creative, more powerful, more productive
5) Don’t worry be _from Bobby McFerrin, great song: don’t worry, be happy
crappy _innovators do is don’t worry, be crappy
When have first refrigerator/laser printer, there crapiness elements
First Macintosh, no software, no hard disk, not enough RAM, slow chip
But if waited perfect world, till chips cheap, fast enough and everything in place, you never
ship
Jump curve, ok have crappy elements to revolution
( not ship crap, ship revolutionary, innovative on next curve have elements crappy to it)
6) Let 100 flowers _Biotech people ignore this
blossom _from chairman Mao
Def: start great innovation, may thing have in mind EXACTLY who your user, your customer,
what they do with product
But you surprise as people use product ways you not anti-participate and people you not
anti-participate use it
_”hallelujah, thanks god, occurring”
9) niche thyself _marketing simple chart: vertical axis measure unique, horizontal axis measure value
2 x 2 matrices
When graduate, work McKinsey, charge 5 million dollar to people figure out they want in
right-hand corner
_bottom-right: great value not unique, compete price. Called Dell corner
(slap same operating system same hardware)
_opposite of bottom right (top-left): truthly unique, only you do it, no value, plain stupid
_bottem-left: USC corner, .com corner, not value not unique
(buy dog food online, paid ship, handling, when UPS drop dead cow in can) -> not convenient as
expensive, stupid people make profile, same money less convenient
_upper-right hand: unique
(go movie, tickets by Fandango, go with kid know have tickets)
(recommend lego movie, fandango: only way buy ticket)
(Breilting emergency watch: only watch save life, pull out big knobs, pull emergency signal)
(smart car: park parallel to curve when lots of parking, how many have car park perpendicular to curb)
If engineer, make product unique and valuable
If marketing, communicate world your product unique and valuable
10) perfect your _if you innovator, have to learn to pitch
pitch _2 key points:
+ customize introduction: start something customize audience
(LG washer, dryer introduce speech in Latin America when speak to LG management) => in
Brazil think about it => send text to sons (Nic, older boy is cowboy and younger, Noah) =>
“get off call of duty, Xbox, house, Iphone I bought you, take pictures of LG stuff) => Nick said
Noah did and ask free TV
Spoke Moscow, picture of cannon, cannon balls, “Russian have big balls”
Istanbul, picture in Grand bazaar, happy shopkeeper think dumbass american will buy fez (3
generations, stupid enough to buy)
Own audience
+ 10, 20, 30 rules presentation
Optimum number slides is 10 (“you’re Cal, may call me hypocrite”)
10 slides in 20 minutes (may have hour slot, 95% use windows, they need 40 minutes with
projector)
Optimum size font is 30 (good rule thum to take oldest person in audience divide their age by
2 (60/2 = 30 size, 50/2 = 25 size, 16 VC/2 = 8 size)
_bozosity like flu, you need exposed to bozosity so when encounter big, already built antigens
_”I think there is a world market for maybe five computers” Thomas Waston, chairman IBM 1943
(5 macintosh at home, all computers he anticipated in world in house today)
_”this telephone has too many shortcoming to be seriously considered as mean of communication. This
devices inherently of no value to us” -Western Union internal memo 1876, wrote off telephony
Western Union should be Paypal today
_”There is no reason why anyone would want computer in their home” -Ken Olsen, founder, digital
equipment corp.
He great innovator, was so success on not appreciate next curve (refrigerator and ice factory)
II. Celebrating the innovation of animated movies –
Zovinar Khirmian – Feb 2019, 9:28 PM
Topic Animated movie deserve same respect as live actions
Reasons
1) Intro _Proliferation of animation as major film-making medium had been long process primarily driven
by technology innovations
_Special effects in KINGKONG (classic film): need “Stop-motion animation” to make film possible
_Toy story:
+ one of early computer-generated animated film
+ Pixar’s first feature film
Surprisingly held up despite leaps of CGI
_Spiderman: into spiderverse (2018), garnered significant acclaim: emulating visual style of comic
book through computer animation
Contemporary 3D animation nothing less than awesome-inspiring
Involve to innovation of artistic and technology level, medium of animation become
hotbed of inventive modes of story telling
2) process _Many greatest animated films in recent memory transcended genres and audiences we set on
flexible medium, use liberties of limitless visual invention to tell stories children hold into their
adulthood
_”Most people have a favorite pixar movei, regardless of how old they were when they first in
love with it”
_Great pixar movie
+ begin with simple, universal notion about life, then transported in metaphorical framework,
where human experiences take non-human form
The kind that bring people tears as watch lonely robot learn to love in Wall-e or
reminded of beauty and pain of growing up through Woody eyes in Toy Story trilogy
Pixar charm us with inventiveness, but core of animated marvels is masterful hold
what matters to all of us, regardless our age
_used of animated worlds be looked at more than just way delight children with thing only
rendered in imagination.
In great work of pixar, build animated world is capture a note on life resonates all of
us
Unimportant _ picture from Sony Pictures Animation
_video from Mr.Fox: My favorite movie
3) _While pixar construct 3D animated worlds, hand drawn and stop motion animation although it’s
older medium still deliver visual splendor and inventive story telling in equal measure
_fantastic Mr.fox, same way Pixar films personify objects/animals/manner of imaginary things
Tell stories grounded in reality, renders world through trials of meticulous animated
world of animals
_video essay by Kartsen Runquist detail why in film: transport real troubles ordinary life into
animated fox come, accept his own existence as animal
Take full advantages of what animation capable of
By beautiful rendering imaginary, animated films shape complex, selfaware stories
beyond superficial entertainment
_We often associate animation with children entertainment, and expect degree of whimsy, levity
in story telling, world building
Spirited away has child protagonist and works as children movie, but also deeply
layered and occasionally disturbing
It boast rich detail hand-drawn animation, known while inventing world full of spirits,
creatures, monsters that critiques effect of capitalism, over-consumption on modern
Japan society
Child may not aware of specific theme, but motif of food throughout film
communicates how greed, consumption shape society.
Medium of animation color film, ultimately create world we fully immerse ourself in
_Celebrating animated movies: integral appreciate full scope of motion pictures as art form and
mode of story telling
_Animation developed over-years, become innovative mechanism for distill meaning from lives
in some most creative, inventive ways
_Adult viewers, good animations offers so much experiences, reflect on and marvel at.
( wether Pixar classic or 2018 show-stopping Spiderman into spider verse, animated movies
provide no shortage wonder, cinematic innovation
4) Frame work
5) Implementing
6) Standford model
7) Scaling
9) References
IV. 8 innovator changing art world
Intro _normal art hard get into
(spend $50 into exhibit only show huge block paint on wall, can’t help but wonder: what did just
pay, but tech added more interesting)
_considering modern world attention span goldfish, interesting and innovative twists 100%
necessary
_Inspire:
living Dubai, Mueller and Ballay constantly travel to and from U.S for various occasion
requires dress attire
unable find thing fit exceptionally well in US, both get suited in Dubai and return home
to countless compliments on their styles
never get what look for in U.S, wanted to sharp tailored suits more prevalent back home
without attaching the usual astronomical price tag
borned in 2010, relieving bespoke suit junkies from $2800 to $4,800 fee become used to
and replace with more reasonable price average $1,200
_Inspiration:
Contrary to popular belief, great things from being incredible irritated
Idea from frustration with design for print on screen, never look like on screen as does
finalized print
“if start design for print on screen, why not start print material and why not interactive”
Designers always collect nice sample inspiration, and utilize them
_Why awesome:
New way see how to understand typography, make typesetting more transparent
By communicate invisible factors (Size, kerning, leading)
New way taking guessing game out of typesetting
“When print book/page from Adobe InDesign, already know what like because took from
printed material”
_Inspire:
Inspiration struck when look at behavior and properties of skin
“our skin constantly in motion” => expand, contrast, change shape based on various
internal, external stimuli which include temperature, moisture, feeling
Idea to create artificial skin enhanced functionality become extension of one actual skin
While interact with body and environment
Modeled after morphology on fish, snake scales
Gaze one of elements in social life express, communicate meaning, intensions
As well person current object of interest
_Inspire:
technology artist, create cool works inaccorporating technology
most life as painter, 1 day decided bored tedious aspects use paint, brush
not hire assistant, not living apprentice => no fun
set designing literal painting robots
Paintr: 5th generation
Cloudpainter: website users submit image for bitPaintr to recreate
After successful kickstart campaign, backed up with portraits orders that painting
almost non-stop till February
_get atten because teded talk, invited to attend White House tech and innovation festival
South by South lawn
Goal: easier for people paint paint themselves, wether learning their own or having
talented bot take over messy work
Currently work next, latest robot have more paint brush and even air brush that
paint faster, eventually take over world
_Inspiration:
While develop Iphone app
Has vision of dancers wear costume illuminated wirelessly compliment music, choreography
(wireless technology controlled from palm of one hand)
Perfect combine uniquely different world, follow true passion
_What next:
Pass on creative edge to future generation
Through youngs (Easiest way), excited get involved in education as late
Important for students: “art, technology aren’t mutually exclusive
Combine things love and come up something revolutionary
The more you know
_Inspire:
Frustrated lack tools at university workshop, Redford take matters into own hands
Not complain, opted to build new tools from domestic appliances around house
First cobbled together from bit of wood, old floor heater, vacuum cleanr => worked
_why different:
View 3d printed and textile weaves as advance wearable fabric properties drastically both
form, function
Properties as stretch, wrinkle-free, heat-protect, cooling, bullet proof, fire resistant,
pressure protective, .. will improved dramatically though set 3d oriented fabric weaves\
Envision 3d printing changing fashion industry tremendously by evolve material and shape
to drastic level can’t imagin
_Work:
In paper to International Symposium of Wearable Computers in September
Cindy Kao, graduate MIT explain creation use gold leaf paper as basic conductivity along a
vinyl cutter and temporary tattoo printing paper
Can use any computer graphic create software to design circuit
Once craft, feed design through vinyl cutter, labeled on gold leaf, apply to skin
May look ordinary flash tattoo but embedded NFC chip allow information (ex: swip
left/right) to transfer to electronic devices
V. Where innovation architecture from next ?
Intro By Quang Truong • July 21, 2020 • Architecture, International, Letter to the
Editor, Technology
_author worked on design, construction Broad Museum Los Angeles
_fiber glass reinforced plastic, mass timber, cutting edge materials worked with remain uncommon
but not yet result show industry fail to understand innovation even when happen while producing
_to state of affair, proposed analytical frame work locating opportunities material innovation at
different design point: build process as 3 cornerstones:
Architecture purpose, ambition: important clear declaration architecture ambition
and scope
vital step, acknowledge incredible diversity purposes and goals, valid in own
way, inherent any design endeavor
AEC process:
Life cycle perspective
Innovation come
Better gasp method operate practice, worth discuss greater depth
_architect work on grand churches, civic build, commercial build, multi-family house, retail, interior
outfit, temporary disaster relief shelter => projects type vastly different things, demand vastly
different criteria judging success
_among start up, race on find next generation renewable materials grown in lab
_ex: bolt threads, create lab grown spider silk
Traditional: from insect larvae from cocoons, most common silk worm
This: not rely on insects, create silk in test tubes
take only part DNA create silk of spider
transformed into microorganism
to yeast (same brew beer)
feed yeast, create silk protein
bio-fabricated materials remove need for animal, insects and more sustainable and
efficient way produce raw materials
able speed up process, put controlled environment in laboratory and have more control
over what growing and how
Toronto, Canada _Myant, company pioneering create of clothing monitor your every move
_called Textile computing, some called Smart fabric
_Tony Chahine, Ceo Myant
_create monitor-wearer-health and fitness clothing, Myant brought together teams people not
traditionally work under same roof
(advance research, engineer, scientist nano scale technology, electrical engineer,
mechatronic engineer, software AI)
Want them interface, interact fashion designers, pattern makers
_Smart Fabric radically change consumers relationships with clothes they wear
_as technology increase, pace change, how industry keep track consumers really want ?
London, England _Francesca Muston, head retail at WGSN, world leading fashion forecasting agency
_”just see pace change, frightening also incredible exciting for fashion future”
_staff use big data to analyze political, social, environment trends in order predict hot new looks
tomorrow
_if think back over last 5 years at how fashion industry changed, think way shop compared used to
shop
_technology drive explosion in consumer choice, as well bewildering array of clothing design and
create
_if you build, not come, take lot research, talking, users make sure product/service relevant, needed
basically people want use essentially
Alexandrea Skougare _fail fast and often, never afraid thing not know
(altassian) digging to that space, uncomfortable feel (like im just not sure) is where richest idea
from and where innovation happen when least expect it
_be proactive, be outhere, active engaging myself and team ensure work do on everybody road
maps. And im champion for them, work we do
_be yes person (At least at begin)
( all time started look at people calendar, understand type meetings having like, what talking about,
how you under
as no set way no top down you do these, I kind of make work around right thing)
_when was study computer science way back day, teacher called Phillip door, thank you say to me
_You not cut out from computer science, I not have what took to pursue particular degree
make me challenging him
be: no, I can screw you, I got this
(motivation need go forward and tackle something)
Know someone say you can’t do, if have motivate tackle yourself then you can
totally do it
_motivation critical above all else
_actually came out what about designers as most career take serious
( 2 years ago David Jones turned around, said just game digit)
bad debt, clients beat us up all hardship
just laughter say just game
_put totally different perspective: just roll with it
Marvin Cheung _embracing absurdity, be loose and have fun
(Wundermain Bienato) (never know what bring to table that people not think of, as result letting go little bit
David Jones _apprenticeship, study beginning and have to learn, knowledge need times and experience
(design, industry)
Stuart May _can’t do all yourself, so many experts have deep knowledge in spaces, areas you not ability
(design, industry) understand, draw upon expertise, and know how to draw upon is critical
_3 main steps:
1. envision
no idea off table
learn thing fun
insights from customers never imagin
things learn impact next time, act as guardrails narrow down right idea, make sure
solve right problem
2. make
3. learn
_tons prices can google until have thousands of them but for me same thing:
1. design right thing
2. design right way
(good head start to go smoothly) (farmer and health care clients want create awareness
about condition affect 1 in 9 adults worldwide, overactive bladder Rab)
Rab is essentially debilitating bladder condition
First fact research: people no want go to GP talk about embaressing problem
=> result essentially national campaign, outdoor prince2 bring awareness, get
people talk OAB
Innovated because subject them tools help themselves diagnose online but push
further, developed IOT connective device pair phone, suffers track and monitor
bladder for real time result
_ex: Senba, cath tag which identify real-world problem track and monitor amount time that
indewlling intravenous cannula left inside patient
Wound site critical area for acquire hospital, infection
Track amount time catheter in patient quite hard
Nurse now administer device to patient, small sticker on patient record
Challenge is patients record in hospital usually reverse chronological order
(day 1 page 1 bottom folder, day 2 on top, day 3 on top. 3 days later, no body able
to track catheters gone into patients)
Work different semver on whole range different options ideas, lots of technology
smart folders looking at why device could help
Give nurse additional layer alert, understand
_borned and literally a little sticky label have smart little module inside battery timer once activated
and stuck in folder, little Led bleep
_since dormants not do anything then start flash red crazy, nurse look records 4,5 hours as soon
they know things to do to call to arm
Future design _regardless 5, 10, 20 years, creativity still going be heart of design process
(joke around future jobs quite not exist yet, ex: self-driving car mechanic/connected home handy
person. Not quite exist yet, if do we adapt, work those into journey and work out means customers
and use their endpoint)
