A great line up for the upcoming Australian Design Museum Exhibition. 24 February – 7 March 2010.

The Wired Tablet, this is one good reason why Flash should be added to the iPad… who needs battery life. The Guggenheim’s Contemplating The Void, I love the mesh concept. Architect Daily’s Building of the Year 2009, this is my fav. Overcome Creative/Design block, some good advice from the pros. Massive re-brand job for the BBC, Global Visual Language 2.0.

This years TED sounded really cool, sounded cool from reading about it from the people that went. Watch this video to see whats its all about. Can’t wait for these speaker videos to be on Ted Talks.

Architect/Designer, Philippe Starck: “I believe in general that my job is absolutely useless; but now, after Carolyn and these guys, I feel like shit”.

Statistician, Hans Rosling: “Bring me my sword!” (Rosling is a serious demographer but he is also – another deadly serious activity – one of the few sword-swallowers active in Sweden, and he ends his speech swallowing a Swedish bayonette).

Computer scientist, Jeff Han: “We basically have to un-teach people what they have learned so far about computing, and convince them that they can use several fingers, that several people can work on the screen at once”.

MoMA design curator Paola Antonelli: “I’m Italian, and in Italy design is normal.”

For a great laugh, read Wil Shipley’s account of the four days.

For those who can’t afford the $4400 USD to attend TED, watch or download the TED Talks or add it to your iTunes viaTED Talks Podcast. They will be adding a new one each week, so visit regulary.

Update.
Sir Ken Robinson’s talk about Creativity in Education and Hans Rosling talk about Using data creatively are my favourites out of this batch.

I wanna go to TED, Watch the ‘Creative’ samples under the Highlights Tab here for some cool design/art related stuff, they have some of the most amazing speakers giving talks at this thing.
