Cindy Gallop

I found this word, and thought of you, Cindy. Nice spending some time with you, exploring your ideas and home, there on 23rd, NYC, looking out to the sunny side of the street, from a dramatically darkening interior. A silky lingerie interior that, in its inherent...

40 Bond Street | Of glass skins

Hi and good morning. I went to Gabellini Sheppard to talk to them about some things. And they’re right on the foot of Bond, in NYC. I walked over to 40 Bond, to see about Ian Schrager’s new venture with HerzogDeMeuron. And what’s happening, there? Or...

The symbolism of weaving

Earlier in my career, as a designer, in exploring the concept of weaving and the context of history, architecture, the letterform in palaeography, I found intriguing links. And I was always compelled to explore the symbolic connection in things. How does, for example,...

TED | d.log>4

The last day was that last tango with the minds of the wildly ranging talent that is TED. More adventures, more risk, more exposures. And it’s all about that risk. Exploding the trust of what you are, what you can be. That might be a thread — breaking the...

The Prize

There’s an unusual component to TED, driven by Chris Anderson’s visioning, and Sapling Foundation’s fueling of the ultimate goal of the event, and TEDs bigger planetary role. And what do I really know about it, being a TED virgin? Not much, but what...

Two TED

There’s a great deal coming out of TED — the encounters, the explorations, the connections, the learnings. Incredible really. I don’t think I’ve ever been to anything quite like it. But the mix is increasingly world focused, on the big world...

TED / Day one : L O V E

Hi. A LOT of us write about the concepts of emotion in the context of the work that we do. We’d like to think that we know something about it. How you reach in there, capture that — illustrate some sensate connection by virtue of text, imagery. But what...

Jeff Han / New interface | TED

HI. I thought about you when exploring this idea. Imagine large scale hand and fingertip gestures in managing, enlarging, reducing and exploring digital imagery files, transparently, on a massive screen, shared in action, two people, with multiple imagery controls in...
