Thats good start making your bicks and build china have very cheap machines to do all bricks tiles with clay, soils or plastic. You can do also houses with bamboo,trees, bottles, containers or old tires and make your clay tiles
I like her perspective. Natasha is saying that results matter more than processes. Some people that promote design thinking believe that if you follow the process, good design will automatically happen. That simply is not true.
Well, it may not automagically happen, though you can compare results from using a particular set of TRIZ tools or ARIZ algorithm vs just randomly brainstorming things as in Design Thinking, which is an intuitive, not algorithmic, approach to creativity & innovation.
Thank you, Adelaide Tam, for your powerful mind-expanding, consciousness-raising presentation. It made me weep. I hope your work receives worldwide coverage!
Out of Africa However light or dark, we are all Africans. This is the place where all manlike creatures evolved. From this mother continent, wave after wave of hominids - evolving apes with larger & larger brains & evermore clever hands - came down from the trees & learned how to walk upright on their hind legs. Stranger & more exciting than any ethnic myth, is the uplifting tale of how we are evolving into godlike beings, by unifying our world via science, technology & universal ethics, while on our journey, spreading to other planets & the stars. A perfect blend of the old, energy-conserving ways & new, energy amplifying machines, going green, sustainable & in harmony with Mother Earth. By honoring the better angels of our nature, we honor God, the one & only, who absorbed all the other gods of mythology; really the forces of Nature - collectively called energy - personified in our imaginations, before the facts could be determined. As Creator of all things perfected, towards which we are evolving, the greatest hearts & minds of humanity, gradually discovered HOW God created & continues to assemble & perfect the arrangement of atoms & flows of energy into the best of all living systems possible. Adapting evermore perfectly, sustainably to every inhabitable part of universe. Gradually, by observing how all living things evolved from the first & simplest micro organisms into mold, plants & animals, borrowing atoms & energy from their environment, using their evolving genetic code, to arrange atoms from their environment into all forms of evermore perfect life, defying entropy - degeneration, erosion, death & decay - we discovered that EVERYTHING is Energy Immortal, indestructible, all things self assembling, self perfecting. No different stuff! Energy & dimensions are EVERYTHING, everywhere present, all powerful, all knowing; the best of all possible futures selected by evermore knowledgeable, intelligent, wise & loving, thinking, feeling beings. Energy is God. Able to assume any color, shape & substance; from the highest mountain, deepest ocean; the very atoms of which you are made, to the most distant star. We breathe God in & out, His energy flows through our veins. He is every mother, every father, every son & daughter, from the mightiest king, emperor, prophet, judge, president, or CEO to the humblest peasant child, who is capable of BECOMING president of a unified, loving world, if we choose to be fair & just, in the universal SPIRIT of God. God is all things; self assembling, erring ever less erringly towards infinite perfection! God is me & you; no different stuff! Creator & all Creation are one & the same. Worlds & universes without end! Reality itself, not just a myth. The God that loves you IS you! “If i can speak all tongues, living or dead, if i know all things, but have not love for my everywhere present SELF, i am as good as dead. I am nothing.” We cannot escape the inevitable consequences of doing evil, devolving, back into the animal nature from which we evolved. Lesser creatures, living only by instinct, are forced to live the law of the jungle: enslave or be enslaved, kill or be killed. But, if we choose to follow the better angels of evermore HUMANE nature, we can soar with eagles, fly high, over the rainbow, learn to live & love on other worlds as we spread throughout the stars, to join the heavenly host; becoming dutiful angels of God, fulfilling His will, to perfect all things, living in perfect harmony. You are all things, able to do all things good, in the spirit of God, emerging within you; all the forces of universe personified, made whole & one again. Universes & life born again, throughout infinite cycles of time; memories of previous existence erased, by the Big Bang-Expansions that you were. You ARE the laws of physics (God) & man, forever seeking perfect peace & harmony, restoring the Singularity that you were before each infinitely creative divine explosion, scintillating into all quanta of changing energy states; each universe coming to know & love itself, in the eternal dance of yin & yang forces. Embrace your everywhere presence, experiencing evolutionary convergence at long last, via science & technology, the best blend of old & new. Revealing the facts; how the universe REALLY works. My precious child; it loves & lives for you.
How is that possible Africa had detached from the developing culture during the history? What is the reason? So many natural resources, so many talented ppl, but why? It is sad to hear that 80% of the ppl can not read and write. I hope It changed a lot after ~10 years. I need to learn a bit about Africa's histroy to understand this.
11:15 Bye the way, it is said that musicians like to get their faces on the cover of 𝘙𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘚𝘵𝘰𝘯𝘦. Well, so do type-designers like to get their faces on the cover of 𝘙𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘚𝘵𝘰𝘯𝘦. 🥁 * Applause *
Emotions move people. And people buy products or service if these emotions appeal to them. Give the audience what they want to hear in an engaging or interesting way.
I thought the church part really injured the sactity of the church, like its not the superdome, commercial advertizing like that has no place in somewhere that is not meant to be commercial or selling you things..... Using type like that give you about as much respect for it as you would give a bag of crisps, because I've seen type and terminology used that way on bags of crisps. Failed

I only disagree with one things he said, Africa is NOT poor. I watched a video once of a newly married couples home being built by their people. It was just like this. The women were singing and working and the home turned out beautifully.
Thank you, Mr. Francis Kéré, from the land of men and women of integrity. That is the meaning behind the name of his country, Burkina Faso, the country of the legend Thomas Sankara.
