Thanks to David Snyder and his tweet I watched René Redzepi’s talk at the Terroir Symposium in Toronto. They published it on Eater, but a while later the video was set on private (I will post it, as soon as it’s online again – hopefully). It’s a shame because René’s talk was amazingly inspiring. For […]
Frank Chimero is a illustrator, designer, educator and writer in Portland, Oregon. His blog is very well know in the design sphere. I recently read his article about a talk he gave at the amazing Do Lectures this year. (I reported about the Do Lectures a while back). Frank Chimero’s talk was called: Doing things […]

Malte shared this video with me via delicious and I must say I love the talk of Matt Ridley about how new ideas are generated: “It is our habit of trade, idea-sharing and specialization that has created the collective brain which set human living standards on a rising trend. This, he says, ‘holds out hope […]
I don’t want to loose a lot of words, you can spend the time watching the video. Gary Vaynerchuck is more entertaining und funnier than all German StandUp comedians BUT also puts a lot of interesting, inspiring and true stuff into his talks. In short: “Stop doing what you hate and do what you love!” […]
