I was here about four years ago,
0
0
2000
Tu sem bil že pred štirimi leti,
00:14
talking about the relationship of design and happiness.
1
2000
6000
ko sem govoril o razmerju med oblikovanjem in srečo.
00:20
At the very end of it, I showed a list under that title.
2
8000
6000
Na koncu sem pokazal seznam pod tem naslovom.
00:26
I learned very few things in addition since
3
14000
6000
Od takrat sem se naučil le še par stvari,
00:32
(Laughter) --
4
20000
1000
(Smeh)
00:33
but made a whole number of them into projects since.
5
21000
6000
a izvedel veliko projektov.
00:39
These are inflatable monkeys in every city in Scotland:
6
27000
5000
To so napihljive opice v vsakem mestu na Škotskem ..
00:44
"Everybody always thinks they are right."
7
32000
8000
"Vsak vedno misli, da ima prav."
00:52
They were combined in the media.
8
40000
4000
V medijih so jih združili.
00:57
"Drugs are fun in the beginning but become a drag later on."
9
45000
9000
"Droge so zabavne na začetku, a kasneje postanejo bedne".
01:07
We're doing changing media.
10
55000
4000
Ustvarjamo tudi "spreminjajoče se medije".
01:11
This is a projection that can see the viewer
11
59000
3000
To je projekcija, ki lahko sledi gledalcu,
01:14
as the viewer walks by.
12
62000
2000
ko ta hodi mimo nje.
01:16
You can't help but actually ripping that spider web apart.
13
64000
6000
Ne gre drugače, kot da pajkovo mrežo raztrgaš.
01:22
All of these things are pieces of graphic design.
14
70000
4000
Vse to je grafično oblikovanje.
01:26
We do them for our clients.
15
74000
2000
To delamo za naše stranke.
01:28
They are commissioned.
16
76000
2000
Narejeno je po naročilu.
01:30
I would never have the money to actually pay for the installment
17
78000
4000
Sam ne bi nikoli imel denarja za inštalacije
01:34
or pay for all the billboards or the production of these,
18
82000
5000
ali za jumbo plakate oziroma njihovo izdelavo,
01:39
so there's always a client attached to them.
19
87000
4000
tako da je vedno zraven tudi stranka.
01:44
These are 65,000 coat hangers in a street
20
92000
5000
Tu vidite 65.000 obešalnikov na ulici,
01:49
that's lined with fashion stores.
21
97000
3000
ki je polna modnih trgovin.
01:55
"Worrying solves nothing."
22
103000
2000
"Skrbi ne rešijo ničesar."
01:57
"Money does not make me happy"
23
105000
6000
"Denar me ne osrečuje"
02:03
appeared first as double-page spreads in a magazine.
24
111000
3000
se je prvič pojavil kot dvostranski oglas v reviji.
02:06
The printer lost the file, didn't tell us.
25
114000
3000
Tiskar je izgubil podatke in nam tega ni povedal.
02:09
When the magazine -- actually, when I got the subscription --
26
117000
2000
Ko je revija, oziroma šele ko sem dobil številko,
02:11
it was 12 following pages.
27
119000
2000
je na 12 zaporednih straneh pisalo:
02:13
It said, "Money does does make me happy."
28
121000
3000
"Denar me me osrečuje."
02:16
And a friend of mine in Austria felt so sorry for me
29
124000
6000
Mojemu prijatelju iz Avstrije je bilo tako žal,
02:22
that he talked the largest casino owner in Linz
30
130000
5000
da je lastnika največje igralnice v Linzu pregovoril v to,
02:27
into letting us wrap his building.
31
135000
3000
da smo mu lahko "okrasili" stavbo.
02:30
So this is the big pedestrian zone in Linz.
32
138000
2000
To je velika cona za pešce v Linzu
02:32
It just says "Money," and if you look down the side street,
33
140000
4000
in vidi se samo "Denar", če pa pogledate po stranski ulici navzdol,
02:36
it says, "does not make me happy."
34
144000
2000
lahko vidite "me ne osrečuje".
02:39
We had a show that just came down last week in New York.
35
147000
6000
Prejšnji teden smo organizirali dogodek v New Yorku.
02:45
We steamed up the windows permanently,
36
153000
2000
Okna smo trajno zameglili
02:47
and every hour we had a different designer come in
37
155000
4000
in vsako uro je v prostor prišel drug oblikovalec,
02:51
and write these things that they've learned into the steam in the window.
38
159000
4000
ki je na zamegljeno okno zapisal stvari, ki se jih je naučil.
02:55
Everybody participated -- Milton Glaser,
39
163000
4000
Vsi so sodelovali -- Milton Glaser.
02:59
Massimo Vignelli.
40
167000
1000
Massimo Vignelli.
03:02
Singapore was quite in discussion.
41
170000
4000
Singapur je bil pogosta tema.
03:06
This is a little spot that we filmed there
42
174000
5000
To je kratek spot, ki smo ga tam posneli
03:11
that's to be displayed on the large JumboTrons in Singapore.
43
179000
6000
in ki se bo predvajal na velikih JumboTron ekranih v Singapurju.
03:17
And, of course, it's one that's dear to my heart,
44
185000
5000
In seveda, eden izmed mojih najljubših,
03:22
because all of these sentiments --
45
190000
2000
zaradi vseh čustev,
03:24
some banal, some a bit more profound --
46
192000
3000
nekaterih banalnih, drugih globljih,
03:27
all originally had come out of my diary.
47
195000
3000
ki so prišla iz mojega dnevnika.
03:43
And I do go often into the diary
48
211000
2000
Pogosto ga berem
03:45
and check if I wanted to change something about the situation.
49
213000
5000
in obenem preverjam, če bi rad situacijo kakorkoli spremenil.
03:51
If it's -- see it for a long enough time,
50
219000
2000
Če o tem razmišljam dovolj dolgo,
03:53
I actually do something about it.
51
221000
4000
tudi v resnici nekaj naredim v tej smeri.
03:57
And the very last one is a billboard.
52
225000
6000
Zadnja izmed takih akcij je jumbo plakat.
04:04
This is our roof in New York, the roof of the studio.
53
232000
3000
To je naša streha v New Yorku, streha ateljeja.
04:08
This is newsprint plus stencils that lie on the newsprint.
54
236000
4000
Šablone in liste smo razporedili po časopisnem papirju
04:13
We let that lie around in the sun.
55
241000
1000
in vse skupaj pustili na soncu.
04:14
As you all know, newsprint yellows significantly in the sun.
56
242000
5000
Kot veste, časopisni papir na soncu porumeni.
04:19
After a week, we took the stencils and the leaves off,
57
247000
2000
Po enem tednu smo šablone in liste odstranili in
04:21
shipped the newsprints to Lisbon to a very sunny spot,
58
249000
5000
plakate postavili na zelo sončen predel v Lizboni.
04:26
so on day one the billboard said,
59
254000
2000
Prvi dan je na plakatu pisalo
04:28
"Complaining is silly. Either act or forget."
60
256000
3000
"Pritoževanje je brez veze. Ukrepaj ali pa pozabi."
04:31
Three days later it faded, and a week later,
61
259000
3000
Čez tri dni je napis zbledel, čez en teden pa
04:34
no more complaining anywhere.
62
262000
3000
pritoževanja ni bilo nikjer več.
04:37
(Laughter)
63
265000
1000
(Smeh)
04:38
Thank you so much.
64
266000
1000
Najlepša hvala.
04:39
(Applause)
65
267000
1000
(Aplavz)
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Stefan Sagmeister - Graphic designerRenowned for album covers, posters and his recent book of life lessons, designer Stefan Sagmeister invariably has a slightly different way of looking at things.
Why you should listen
Stefan Sagmeister is no mere commercial gun for hire. Sure, he's created eye-catching graphics for clients including the Rolling Stones and Lou Reed, but he pours his heart and soul into every piece of work. His design work is at once timeless and of the moment, and his painstaking attention to the smallest details creates work that offers something new every time you look at it.
While a sense of humor invariably surfaces in his designs, Sagmeister is nonetheless very serious about his work; his intimate approach and sincere thoughtfulness elevate his design. A genuine maverick, Sagmeister achieved notoriety in the 1990s as the designer who self-harmed in the name of craft: He created a poster advertising a speaking engagement by carving the salient details onto his torso.
