One morning, in the year 1957,

1957年的一个早上
00:19
the neurosurgeon Wilder Penfield
1
4000
3000
神经外科医生Walter Penfield
00:22
saw himself like this,
2
7000
3000
看到了这样的自己：
00:25
a weird freak with huge hands,
3
10000
3000
一个长着巨掌
00:28
huge mouth,
4
13000
2000
大嘴
00:30
and a tiny bottom.
5
15000
3000
臀部极小的怪物
00:33
Actually this creature
6
18000
3000
实际上，这个生物
00:36
is the result of the Penfield research.
7
21000
2000
是Penfield研究的结果
00:38
He named it homunculus.
8
23000
2000
他将其命名为“矮人”
00:40
Basically the homunculus is
9
25000
3000
本质上，这个矮人就是
00:43
the visualization of a human being
10
28000
2000
按照人类
00:45
where each part of the body is proportional
11
30000
3000
身体各部分在大脑皮层中
00:48
to the surface it takes in the brain.
12
33000
3000
所占的比例制作而成的一个可视化形象
00:51
So, of course, homunculus is definitely not a freak.
13
36000
5000
所以，这个矮人当然绝非一个怪物
00:56
It's you. It's me.
14
41000
2000
它是你，也是我
00:58
It's our invisible reality.
15
43000
3000
它是我们看不到的现实
01:01
This visualization could explain, for example,
16
46000
3000
例如，这个可视化的形象能够解释
01:04
why newborns, or smokers,
17
49000
3000
为什么新生儿，或者吸烟者
01:07
put, instinctively, their fingers in the mouth.
18
52000
3000
会本能地把手指放进嘴里
01:10
Unfortunately it doesn't explain why
19
55000
4000
不幸的是，它无法解释为什么
01:14
so many designers remain mainly interested
20
59000
3000
如此多的设计者仍然将他们的主要兴趣
01:17
in designing chairs.
21
62000
2000
放在设计椅子上
01:19
So anyway, even if I do not understand science entirely,
22
64000
3000
不管怎样，即使我并非完全了解科学
01:22
for my design I essentially refer to it.
23
67000
3000
但是在我的设计中，我基本上参考了科学原理
01:25
I'm fascinated by its ability to
24
70000
3000
我着迷于科学的这种
01:28
deeply investigate the human being,
25
73000
2000
深刻研究人类的能力
01:30
its way of working, its way of feeling.
26
75000
3000
以及它运作及感知的方式
01:33
And it really helps me to understand
27
78000
3000
并且它的确帮助我理解了
01:36
how we see, how we hear,
28
81000
2000
我们是如何去看，去听
01:38
how we breathe, how our brain can inform or mislead us.
29
83000
5000
去呼吸，我们的大脑是如何引导或误导我们
01:43
It's a great tool for me
30
88000
2000
这是一个极好的工具，它帮助我
01:45
to understand what could be our real needs.
31
90000
4000
理解什么才是我们真正的需要
01:49
Marketing people have never been able to do that.
32
94000
4000
营销者绝对没有能力做这样的事
01:53
Marketing reduces things. Marketing simplifies.
33
98000
3000
营销减少事物，简化事物
01:56
Marketing creates user groups.
34
101000
3000
营销创造用户群
01:59
And scientists, amidst complexity,
35
104000
3000
但是科学家却处于复杂性
02:02
amidst fluctuation and uniqueness.
36
107000
3000
波动性和独特性之中
02:05
What could be our real needs?
37
110000
2000
我们真正需要的是什么呢？
02:07
Maybe the silence.
38
112000
2000
也许就是安静
02:09
In our daily life we are continuously disturbed by
39
114000
2000
在我们的日常生活中我们总是被
02:11
aggressive sounds.
40
116000
2000
侵略性的声音所打扰
02:13
And you know all those kind of sound puts us
41
118000
2000
而且所有的这些声音使我们
02:15
in a kind of stressful state,
42
120000
2000
处于一种压力状态
02:17
and prevent us from being quiet and focused.
43
122000
3000
这些声音使我们烦躁，无法精力集中
02:20
So I wanted to create a kind of
44
125000
2000
所以我想制造出一种
02:22
sound filter,
45
127000
3000
声音过滤器
02:25
able to preserve ourselves from noise pollution.
46
130000
2000
这种仪器能够使我们远离噪声污染
02:27
But I didn't want it to make it by
47
132000
3000
但是我并不想让这个设计将人
02:30
isolating people, without any earmuffs
48
135000
3000
隔离开来，所以它没有任何耳塞
02:33
or those kind of things.
49
138000
2000
或其他诸如此类的东西
02:35
Or neither with including complex technology.
50
140000
3000
这个设计也没有使用复杂的技术
02:38
I just wanted to, using the complexity
51
143000
4000
我只是想用人类大脑的复杂性
02:42
and the technology of the brain, of the human brain.
52
147000
3000
及技术性来制作
02:45
So I worked with white noise.
53
150000
3000
因此，我研究了白噪音
02:48
dB is basically --
54
153000
2000
D.B.基本上，
02:50
dB is the name of the product,
55
155000
2000
D.B.是这个产品的名字，实际上
02:52
basically a white noise diffuser.
56
157000
2000
它是一个白噪音的扩散器
02:54
This is white noise.
57
159000
1000
这就是白噪音
02:55
The white noise is the sum of all frequencies
58
160000
3000
白噪音是将所有
02:58
that are audible by the human being,
59
163000
2000
人类可听到的声音频率
03:00
brought to the same intensity.
60
165000
2000
以相同强度叠加的结果
03:02
And this noise is like a "shhhhhhhhhhhhh," like that.
61
167000
5000
就像这种“shhhhhhhhhhh"声
03:07
And this noise is the most neutral.
62
172000
2000
这种声音是最中性的
03:09
It is the perfect sound for our ears and our brain.
63
174000
3000
对于我们的耳朵和大脑来说它是最完美的声音
03:12
So when you hear this sound
64
177000
2000
所以当你听到这种声音时
03:14
you feel like a kind of shelter,
65
179000
3000
你感觉它像一个庇护所
03:17
preserved from noise pollution.
66
182000
3000
使你不受噪音污染
03:20
And when you hear the white noise, your brain is immediately focused on it.
67
185000
3000
而且当你听到白噪音时，你的大脑马上就会专注于这个声音
03:23
And do not be disturbed any more by the other aggressive sound.
68
188000
4000
而不会被其他侵略性的声音所吸引
03:27
It seems to be magic.
69
192000
2000
这看起来很神奇
03:29
But it is just physiology. It's just in your brain.
70
194000
3000
但其实不过是一种生理机能，它就在你的大脑中
03:32
And in mine, I hope.
71
197000
3000
希望也在我的大脑中
03:35
So in order to make this white noise
72
200000
3000
因此为了让这种白噪音
03:38
a little bit active and reactive,
73
203000
2000
略微活跃一些，并且更有反应性
03:40
I create a ball, a rolling ball
74
205000
3000
我做了一个球，一个可以滚动的球
03:43
able to analyze and find
75
208000
4000
它可以分析并找出
03:47
where does aggressive sound come from,
76
212000
2000
侵略性声音的来源，
03:49
and roll, at home or at work,
77
214000
3000
无论是在家还是在工作，这个球会
03:52
towards aggressive noise,
78
217000
3000
朝着侵略性声音来源的方向滚动
03:55
and emits white noise in order to neutralize it.
79
220000
3000
并释放出白噪音来中和它
03:58
(Laughter)
80
223000
3000
（笑声）
04:01
It works.
81
226000
2000
它的确有效
04:15
You feel the effect of the white noise?
82
240000
4000
你感受到白噪音的影响了吗？
04:19
It's too in silence.
83
244000
2000
这儿太安静了
04:21
If you make some noise you can feel the effect.
84
246000
3000
如果你制造一些噪音，你就能感受到这个效果
04:24
So even if this object,
85
249000
3000
虽然这个设计
04:27
even if this product includes some technology,
86
252000
2000
虽然这个产品使用了一些技术——
04:29
it includes some speakers, it includes some microphones
87
254000
2000
它装有音箱，麦克风
04:31
and some electronic devices,
88
256000
3000
和一些电子设备——
04:34
this object is not a very smart object.
89
259000
3000
但这并非是一个非常智能的设计
04:37
And I don't want to make a very smart object.
90
262000
2000
我也并不想制造出一个非常智能的设计
04:39
I don't want to create a perfect object like a perfect robot.
91
264000
4000
我并不想制造出一个像机器人那样完美的设计
04:43
I want to create an object like you and me.
92
268000
3000
我想创造出一个就像你我一样的设计
04:46
So, definitely not perfect.
93
271000
2000
所以，它绝对不是完美的
04:48
So imagine, for instance, you are at home.
94
273000
3000
那么设想，比如你在家
04:51
A loving dispute with your girl or boyfriend.
95
276000
3000
跟你的男朋友或女朋友争论
04:54
You shout. You say, "Blah blah blah, Blah blah blah. Who is this guy?"
96
279000
3000
你会大喊，你会说：“哇啦哇啦。哇啦哇啦。这个人是谁？”
04:57
And dB will probably roll toward you.
97
282000
4000
这时D.B.将会向你滚过来
05:01
And turning around you is "shhhhhhh," like that.
98
286000
5000
然后在你周围转圈发出"shhhhhhh"声，就像那样
05:06
(Laughter)
99
291000
1000
(笑声)
05:07
Definitely not perfect. So you would probably
100
292000
2000
绝对不完美，所以你很有可能
05:09
shut it, at this point.
101
294000
2000
因此而把它踢走
05:11
(Laughter)
102
296000
2000
(笑声)
05:13
Anyway, in this same kind of approach,
103
298000
3000
不管怎样，以同样的方式
05:16
I designed K.
104
301000
2000
我设计出了K
05:18
K is a daylight receiver transmitter.
105
303000
3000
K是一个日光接受传送器
05:21
So this object is supposed to be displayed on your desk,
106
306000
3000
这一设计可以摆在你的书桌
05:24
or on your piano, where you are supposed
107
309000
2000
或者钢琴上，即任何一个
05:26
to spend most of your time in the day.
108
311000
2000
你会待上很长时间的地方
05:28
And this object will be
109
313000
2000
这个设计能够
05:30
able to know exactly the quantity of light you receive during the day,
110
315000
3000
具体感知你一天内接受的光照量
05:33
and able to give you the quantity of light you need.
111
318000
4000
然后能提供给你所需的光量
05:37
This object is completely covered by
112
322000
3000
这一设计完全由
05:40
fiber opticals.
113
325000
2000
光学纤维覆盖
05:42
And the idea of those fiber opticals is to inform the object, for sure,
114
327000
3000
这些光学纤维用来将信息传递给仪器
05:45
but creates the idea of an
115
330000
3000
同时充当了这个仪器
05:48
eye sensibility of the object.
116
333000
3000
的可视眼
05:51
I want, by this design
117
336000
2000
我希望这个设计
05:53
feel, when you see it,
118
338000
2000
能够使你看到它的时候
05:55
you see, instinctively,
119
340000
2000
本能地感到
05:57
this object seems to be very sensitive,
120
342000
2000
它是非常敏感
05:59
very reactive.
121
344000
2000
非常活跃的
06:01
And this object knows, better than you
122
346000
3000
而且它比你自己还了解你
06:04
and probably before you, what you really need.
123
349000
2000
很可能在你之前就知道你真正需要什么
06:06
You have to know that the lack of daylight
124
351000
2000
要知道缺乏阳光
06:08
can provoke some
125
353000
3000
能够导致一些
06:11
problem of energy, or problem of libido.
126
356000
2000
能量或者性欲的问题
06:13
So, a huge problem.
127
358000
3000
总之，很严重的问题
06:16
(Laughter)
128
361000
1000
(笑声)
06:17
Most of the projects I work on --
129
362000
2000
我所研发的大部分项目
06:19
I live in collaboration with scientists.
130
364000
2000
是与科学家共同完成的
06:21
I'm just a designer. So I need them.
131
366000
2000
我只是个设计者 所以我需要他们
06:23
So there can be some biologists,
132
368000
2000
其中有生物学家
06:25
psychiatrists, mathematicians, and so on.
133
370000
3000
心理学家，数学家等等
06:28
And I submit them, my intuitions,
134
373000
3000
我会告诉他们我的直觉
06:31
my hypothesis, my first ideas.
135
376000
2000
我的假说 以及我最初的想法
06:33
And they react. They told me what is possible, what is impossible.
136
378000
3000
他们回应我，告诉我什么是可能的 什么是不可能的
06:36
And together we improve the original concept.
137
381000
4000
然后我们一起改进原有的观念
06:40
And we build the project to the end.
138
385000
2000
最终完成这个项目
06:42
And this kind of relationship between designer and scientist
139
387000
3000
这种设计者和科学家之间的关系
06:45
started when I was at school.
140
390000
2000
始于我上学的时候
06:47
Indeed in my studies I was a guinea pig
141
392000
3000
在我刚上学时 我当过
06:50
for a pharmaceutical industry.
142
395000
2000
药物工业的实验小鼠
06:52
And the irony for me was
143
397000
3000
对我来说讽刺的是
06:55
of course, I didn't do that for the sake of science progress.
144
400000
3000
我做这些当然并非为了科学进步
06:58
I just do that to make money.
145
403000
2000
我只是想赚钱
07:00
Anyway, this project, or this experience,
146
405000
4000
不管怎样，这个项目，或者说这个实验
07:04
make me start a new project on the design of medicine.
147
409000
4000
使我开始了一项新的医药设计
07:08
You have to know that today, roughly one or two every drug pills
148
413000
4000
现在大家知道，每种药都有一两片
07:12
is not taken correctly.
149
417000
2000
没有被正确服用
07:14
So even if the active constituents
150
419000
4000
因此虽然药物当中的有效成分
07:18
in pharmaceuticals made constant progress
151
423000
2000
在化学，目标及稳定性方面
07:20
in terms of chemistry, target of stability,
152
425000
3000
得到持续的改进
07:23
the behavior of the patients
153
428000
2000
病人的行为
07:25
goes more and more unstable.
154
430000
3000
却变得越来越不稳定
07:28
So we took too many of them.
155
433000
3000
我们服用的药物越来越多
07:31
We took irregular dosage.
156
436000
3000
药量也不固定
07:34
We do not follow instructions. And so on.
157
439000
3000
我们开始不遵医嘱，等等
07:37
So I wanted to create a
158
442000
2000
所以我想制造出
07:39
new kind of medicine,
159
444000
2000
新型的药品
07:41
in order to create a new kind of relationship
160
446000
2000
从而在病人和药物之间
07:43
between the patient and the treatment.
161
448000
3000
建立起新的关系
07:46
So I turned traditional pills into this.
162
451000
3000
因此我把普通的药片变成这样
07:49
I'm going to give you some example.
163
454000
2000
下面我给大家看几个例子
07:51
This one is an antibiotic.
164
456000
3000
这是一种抗生素类药
07:54
And its purpose is to help patient
165
459000
2000
这种药用于帮助病人
07:56
to go to the end of the treatment.
166
461000
3000
完成疗程
07:59
And the concept is to
167
464000
3000
我的设计理念就是
08:02
create a kind of onion,
168
467000
2000
将其制成洋葱状
08:04
a kind of structure in layers.
169
469000
3000
拥有多层结构
08:07
So, you start with the darkest one.
170
472000
2000
你从颜色最深的一层开始服用
08:09
And you are helped to visualize the duration of the treatment.
171
474000
5000
它帮助你将治疗过程可视化
08:14
And you are helped to visualize the decrease of the infection.
172
479000
3000
同时也帮你将感染痊愈的过程可视化
08:17
So the first day, this is the big one.
173
482000
4000
第一天，服用大的那层
08:21
And you have to peel and eat one layer a day.
174
486000
4000
每天剥一层吃
08:25
And your antibiotic goes smaller and clearer.
175
490000
3000
你的抗生素药就会越来越小，颜色也越来越浅
08:28
And you're waiting for recovery as you were waiting for the Christmas day.
176
493000
4000
你就像等待圣诞节一样 等待着康复
08:32
And you follow the treatment like that,
177
497000
4000
通过这样的方式遵循疗程
08:36
to the end of the treatment.
178
501000
2000
直到结束
08:38
And here you can get the white core.
179
503000
2000
最终你就可以服用核心的白色抗生素
08:40
And it means, right, you are in the recovery.
180
505000
5000
这就意味着，对，你处于康复状态
08:45
(Applause) Thank you.
181
510000
3000
（掌声）谢谢（掌声）
08:48
This one is a "third lung,"
182
513000
2000
这个设计叫做“第三个肺”
08:50
a pharmaceutical device for long-term asthma treatment.
183
515000
4000
是一种用于长期哮喘治疗的药物设计
08:54
I designed it to help kids to follow the treatment.
184
519000
4000
我设计它来帮助孩子按疗程治疗
08:58
So the idea of this one is to create
185
523000
2000
这个想法就是要在病人
09:00
a relationship between the patient of the treatment
186
525000
3000
和药物之间建立起一种关系
09:03
but a relationship of dependency.
187
528000
2000
即一种依赖关系
09:05
But in this case it is not the medication that is dependent on the patient.
188
530000
4000
不过在这种情况中并非是药物依赖于病人
09:09
This is, the kids will feel
189
534000
4000
这个孩子会感到
09:13
the therapeutic object needs him.
190
538000
3000
这个治疗仪器需要他
09:16
So the idea is, all night long
191
541000
3000
设计理念是在一整夜当中
09:19
the elastic skin of the third lung
192
544000
2000
“第三个肺”的弹力表层
09:21
will slowly inflate itself,
193
546000
2000
会慢慢膨胀起来
09:23
including air and molecules, for sure.
194
548000
3000
里面充满了空气和药物分子
09:26
And when the kids wake up,
195
551000
2000
当孩子醒来时
09:28
he can see the object needs him. And he take him to his mouth,
196
553000
3000
他会看到这个仪器需要他，然后他就把这个仪器拿到嘴边
09:31
and breathe the air it contains.
197
556000
2000
吸取其中的空气
09:33
So by this way,
198
558000
2000
通过这种方式
09:35
the kid, to take care of himself,
199
560000
4000
孩子就可以通过照顾这个仿真的仪器
09:39
is to take care of this living object.
200
564000
3000
来照顾自己
09:42
And he does not feel anymore it's relies on asthma treatment,
201
567000
3000
这样他再也不会感到自己在依赖哮喘药物
09:45
as the asthma treatment needs him.
202
570000
3000
而是哮喘药物在依赖他
09:48
(Applause)
203
573000
4000
(掌声)
09:52
In this guise of living object approach,
204
577000
4000
在这种模拟生命物体的方法中，
09:56
I like the idea of a kind of invisible design,
205
581000
2000
我喜欢这种无形设计的理念
09:58
as if the function of the object
206
583000
4000
该设计的功能仿佛
10:02
exists in a kind of invisible field
207
587000
3000
存在于无形之地
10:05
just around the objects themselves.
208
590000
2000
而这无形之地就在该设计的周围
10:07
We could talk about a kind of soul,
209
592000
3000
我们可以说有某种灵魂般的存在
10:10
of a ghost accompanying them.
210
595000
3000
在操纵它们
10:13
And almost a kind of poltergeist effect.
211
598000
4000
这几乎是一种恶作剧的效果
10:17
So when a passive object like this one seems to be alive,
212
602000
3000
因此像这样一台被动的仪器，会看起来像有生命
10:20
because it is -- woosh -- starting to move.
213
605000
3000
因为它在运动
10:23
And I remember an exhibition design
214
608000
2000
我还记得我曾为John Maeda
10:25
I made for John Maeda,
215
610000
3000
和巴黎的Cartier基金会
10:28
and for the Fondation Cartier in Paris.
216
613000
2000
所做的展览设计
10:30
And John Maeda was supposed to show
217
615000
3000
John Maeda想要在这次展览中
10:33
several graphic animations in this exhibition.
218
618000
2000
展出一些动画片
10:35
And my idea for this exhibition design was to create
219
620000
3000
对于这个展览设计，我的理念是制造出
10:38
a real pong game, like this one.
220
623000
3000
一个真正的弹球游戏，像这样
10:41
And the idea was to create some self-moving benches
221
626000
3000
这个想法就是在主展厅中
10:44
in the main exhibition room.
222
629000
2000
制造出一些自主移动的长椅
10:46
So the living benches would be exactly like the ball.
223
631000
3000
使这些活的长椅恰好同那个球一模一样
10:49
And John was so excited by this idea. He said to me, "Okay let's go."
224
634000
5000
John对这个想法很兴奋，他跟我说：“好，我们就这么办吧。”
10:54
I remember the day of the opening.
225
639000
2000
我记得开展的那天
10:56
I was a little bit late.
226
641000
2000
我去的有点儿晚
10:58
When I bring the 10 living and self-moving benches
227
643000
5000
当我把这10个自主移动的长椅
11:03
in the exhibition room, John was just beside me,
228
648000
4000
放到展厅中时，John就站在我旁边
11:07
and was like, "Hmm. Hmm."
229
652000
5000
发出“嗯，嗯”的声音
11:12
And he told me, after a long silence,
230
657000
3000
沉默了很长时间之后，他跟我说
11:15
"I wonder, Mathieu, if
231
660000
3000
“Mathieu，我不知道人们会不会
11:18
people won't be more fascinated by your benches
232
663000
2000
对你的长椅比对我的视频
11:20
than by my videos."
233
665000
2000
还要感兴趣。”
11:22
(Laughter)
234
667000
3000
(笑声)
11:25
It would be a great honor, a great compliment for me,
235
670000
3000
如果他没有决定在开展2小时之前
11:28
if he hadn't decided to take all them off
236
673000
3000
撤掉这10个长椅
11:31
two hours before the opening.
237
676000
2000
这段话会被我当成极大的荣誉与恭维
11:33
So, huge tragedy.
238
678000
3000
可最终成了巨大的悲剧
11:36
I guess you won't be surprised if I tell you
239
681000
2000
我猜如果我告诉你们匹诺曹是对我影响极深的人之一
11:38
that Pinocchio is one of my great influences.
240
683000
3000
你们一定不会惊讶
11:41
Pinocchio is probably one of my best design products, my favorite one.
241
686000
4000
匹诺曹是我最好的设计之一，也是我最喜欢的一个设计
11:45
Because it is a kind of object with a conscience,
242
690000
3000
因为它是一种有感知的设计
11:48
able to be modified by its surroundings,
243
693000
2000
它能够被周围环境所改变
11:50
and able to modify it as well.
244
695000
3000
也能改变周围的环境
11:53
The other great influence is the mine's canary.
245
698000
2000
另一个对我影响极大的就是矿场的金丝雀
11:55
In coal mines, this canary
246
700000
4000
在煤矿场，这种金丝雀
11:59
was supposed to be close to the miners.
247
704000
3000
会与矿工紧密相伴
12:02
And it was singing all day long. And when it stops it means that it just died.
248
707000
3000
它一整天都在鸣叫，当它停止鸣叫就意味着它死了
12:05
So this canary was a living alarm,
249
710000
4000
所以这金丝雀是撤离的警报
12:09
and a very efficient one.
250
714000
2000
而且是非常有效的警报
12:11
A very natural technology,
251
716000
2000
一种非常天然的技术
12:13
in order to say to the miners,
252
718000
3000
用于告知矿工
12:16
"The air is too bad. You have to go. It's an emergency."
253
721000
5000
“空气状况很糟。你必须离开。这是紧急情况”
12:21
So it's, for me, a great product.
254
726000
3000
因此对我来说，这是一个伟大的产品
12:24
And I tried to design a kind of canary.
255
729000
2000
所以我尝试设计一种金丝雀
12:26
Andrea is one.
256
731000
2000
Andrea是其中之一
12:28
Andrea is a living air filter that absorbs toxic gasses
257
733000
3000
它是一种有生命的空气过滤器
12:31
from air, contaminated indoor air.
258
736000
4000
吸收空气中的有毒气体，包括室内气体
12:35
So it uses some plants to do this job,
259
740000
3000
它根据植物过滤空气的能力
12:38
selected for their gas-filtering ability.
260
743000
5000
来选择一些植物完成这项工作
12:43
You have to know, or you probably already know,
261
748000
3000
你要知道，也许你已经知道
12:46
that indoor air pollution is more toxic than outdoor one.
262
751000
3000
室内空气污染的毒性比室外的大得多
12:49
So while I'm talking to you,
263
754000
3000
当我对你们讲话的时候
12:52
the seats you are sitting on are currently emitting some
264
757000
3000
你们所坐的椅子上正释放出一些
12:55
invisible and odorless toxic gas. Sorry for that. (Laughter)
265
760000
4000
隐形无臭的有毒气体 抱歉提到这些
12:59
So you are currently breathing formaldehyde.
266
764000
4000
所以你现在正在吸入甲醛
13:03
It's the same for me with the carpet.
267
768000
3000
对我来说就是吸着地毯上的甲醛
13:06
And this is exactly the same at home.
268
771000
4000
家里的空气同样如此
13:10
Because all the product we get constantly give away
269
775000
4000
因为我们买到的所有产品都在持续的释放
13:14
the volatile component of which they're made of.
270
779000
3000
它们组成成分中的挥发性物质
13:17
So let's have a look at your home.
271
782000
3000
让我们看看你的家
13:36
So your sofa, your plastic chair,
272
801000
2000
你的沙发，塑料椅子
13:38
your kid's toys
273
803000
2000
孩子的玩具
13:40
give their own invisible reality. And this one is very toxic.
274
805000
4000
实际上他们的毒性都是不可见的，但是其毒性非常大
13:44
This is the reason why
275
809000
2000
这就是我和
13:46
I created, with David Edward,
276
811000
2000
哈佛大学的科学家David Edward
13:48
a scientist of Harvard University,
277
813000
2000
共同制造出一部利用这些种类的植物
13:50
an object able to absorb the toxic elements using those kind of plants.
278
815000
6000
来吸收有毒气体的仪器的原因
13:56
But the idea is to force
279
821000
2000
其理念是推动空气
13:58
the air to go in the effective part of the plants.
280
823000
3000
通过这些植物有效过滤的部分
14:01
Because the roots of the plant are not very effective.
281
826000
3000
因为这些植物的根部滤毒效果并不显著
14:04
Bill Wolverton from NASA
282
829000
2000
来自美国宇航局的Bill Vorveten
14:06
analyzed it cleverly in the '70s.
283
831000
4000
在70年代高明地分析了这一方法
14:10
So the idea is to create an object
284
835000
2000
其理念就是制造出一种产品
14:12
able to force the air, and to be in contact at the right speed
285
837000
4000
能够推动空气使其以正确的速度
14:16
at the right place, in all the effective parts of the plant.
286
841000
4000
在正确的地方与植物所有有效滤毒的地方接触
14:20
So this is the final object.
287
845000
2000
这就是最后的设计
14:22
It will be launched next September.
288
847000
4000
该设计将于明年9月份面世
14:26
(Applause)
289
851000
3000
(掌声)
14:29
This one is kind of the same approach
290
854000
2000
这是一个某种程度上思路相同的设计
14:31
because I include, in a product
291
856000
2000
因为像Andrea一样
14:33
like Andrea, some plants.
292
858000
3000
它也包括了植物
14:36
And in this one, plants are used for the water filtration ability.
293
861000
4000
它应用了该植物过滤水的功能
14:40
And it includes some fishes as well.
294
865000
2000
这个设计也包括了鱼
14:42
But here, unlike Andrea,
295
867000
2000
但是与Andrea不同的是
14:44
here are supposed to be eaten.
296
869000
2000
它们是可以食用的
14:46
Indeed, this object is a domestic farm,
297
871000
3000
实际上这个设计是一个家庭农场
14:49
for fishes and green.
298
874000
2000
生产鱼和绿色植物
14:51
So the idea of this object
299
876000
3000
所以这个设计的理念就是
14:54
is to be able to get at home
300
879000
3000
让你在家里就能够
14:57
very local food.
301
882000
2000
得到本地产出的食物
14:59
The locavores
302
884000
2000
本地膳食主义者
15:01
used to get food
303
886000
2000
过去习惯在方圆100英里以内
15:03
taken in a radius of 100 miles.
304
888000
2000
获取食物
15:05
Local River is able to provide you
305
890000
2000
Local River能够在你的起居室里
15:07
food directly in your living room.
306
892000
3000
直接提供给你食物
15:10
So the principle of this object
307
895000
3000
这一设计的原理就是
15:13
is to create an ecosystem
308
898000
2000
创造出一种
15:15
called aquaponics.
309
900000
2000
被称为“aquaponics”的生态系统
15:17
And the aquaponics is the dirty water of the fish,
310
902000
4000
aquaponics就是将养鱼用的脏水
15:21
by a water pump, feeds the plants above.
311
906000
3000
通过水泵来浇灌鱼缸上面的植物
15:24
And the plants will filter, by the roots,
312
909000
3000
这些植物用根来
15:27
the dirty water of the fish.
313
912000
2000
过滤养鱼用的脏水
15:29
After, it goes back into the fish tank.
314
914000
4000
过滤后的水再回到鱼缸中
15:33
After that you have two options.
315
918000
2000
之后你有两个选择
15:35
Or you sit down in front of it like you would do in front your TV set.
316
920000
3000
要么像坐在电视机前收看“惊奇频道”一样
15:38
Amazing channel.
317
923000
3000
坐在过滤器前
15:41
Or you start fishing.
318
926000
2000
要么开始钓鱼
15:43
And you make some sushis with a fish
319
928000
3000
你可以用鱼和上面芳香的植物
15:46
and the aromatic plants above.
320
931000
2000
来做寿司
15:48
Because you can grow some potatoes.
321
933000
2000
你可以种一些土豆
15:50
No, not potatoes, but tomatoes,
322
935000
2000
不，不是土豆 是西红柿
15:52
aromatic plants and so on.
323
937000
2000
芳香植物等等
15:54
So now we can breathe safely.
324
939000
3000
现在我们可以安全地呼吸
15:57
Now we can eat local food.
325
942000
3000
我们可以吃到本地食品
16:00
Now we can be treated by smart medicine.
326
945000
3000
我们可以通过服用智能的药物来治疗疾病
16:03
Now we can be well-balanced in our biorhythm
327
948000
3000
我们可以在日光的陪伴下
16:06
with daylight.
328
951000
2000
保持良好的生物节律平衡
16:08
But it was important to create a perfect place,
329
953000
3000
为工作和创作来建造一个
16:11
so I tried to,
330
956000
2000
完美的地方是十分重要的
16:13
in order to work and create.
331
958000
3000
所以我就尝试了一下
16:16
So I designed, for an American scientist based in Paris,
332
961000
4000
我为一位在巴黎的美国科学家
16:20
a very stimulative, brain-stimulative office.
333
965000
3000
设计了一间非常具有激发性的，激发大脑的办公室
16:23
I wanted to create a perfect place
334
968000
3000
我想建造出一个完美的地方
16:26
where you can work and play,
335
971000
2000
在这里你可以工作和娱乐
16:28
and where your body and your brain can work together.
336
973000
3000
在这里你的身体和头脑可以一起工作
16:31
So, in this office,
337
976000
2000
所以，在这间办公室里
16:33
you do not work anymore at your desk, like a politician.
338
978000
4000
你再也不会像政治家一样在书桌前工作
16:37
Your seat, your sleep and your play
339
982000
4000
皮革构成的表面结构坚固的岛状物
16:41
on a big geodesic island made of leather.
340
986000
4000
可用为座椅，床铺以及娱乐之地
16:45
See, like this one?
341
990000
2000
看，就像这个
16:47
In this office you do not work and write and draw on a sheet of paper,
342
992000
5000
在这间办公室里你不用在纸上工作或书写
16:52
but you draw directly on a kind of huge whiteboard cave,
343
997000
5000
而是在一种巨大的白板洞里直接绘图
16:57
like a prehistoric scientist.
344
1002000
2000
就像史前科学家那样
16:59
So you, like that, can make some sport during your work.
345
1004000
4000
这样 你在工作时还可以做一些运动
17:03
In this office
346
1008000
4000
在这间办公室里
17:07
you do not need to go out
347
1012000
2000
你不需要走到外面去
17:09
in order to be in contact with nature.
348
1014000
3000
就能够接触自然
17:12
You include, directly, the nature in the floor of the office.
349
1017000
5000
这间办公室的地板直接包含了自然的一部分
17:17
You can see it there.
350
1022000
3000
你可以在那里看到
17:20
This is an inspiration image
351
1025000
2000
这是给这个办公室项目
17:22
to lead this project of the office.
352
1027000
2000
带来灵感的一幅图片
17:24
It really helped me to design it.
353
1029000
2000
它的确帮助了我去设计这个办公室
17:26
I never show it to my client. He would be so afraid.
354
1031000
3000
我从来没有给我的顾客看这个，否则他会很生气
17:29
(Laughter)
355
1034000
1000
(笑声)
17:30
Just for my workshop.
356
1035000
3000
仅供我的工作组使用
17:33
I guess it may be the revenge of the guinea pig I was.
357
1038000
4000
我猜这也许是对我曾被当作实验小鼠的一种报复
17:37
But it's maybe the conviction
358
1042000
4000
又或者这也许是因为我深信
17:41
as monkey and homunculus we are.
359
1046000
4000
我们就是猴子和“矮人”
17:45
All of us need to be considered according to our real nature.
360
1050000
6000
我们应该根据自身的本性来看待自己
17:51
Thank you very much.
361
1056000
2000
非常感谢
17:53
(Applause)

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Mathieu Lehanneur - DesignerKitchen-sized fish farms, living air purifiers and devices that turn old water bottles into martini shakers all spring from the form-and-function-fusing mind of designer Mathieu Lehanneur.
Why you should listen
Mathieu Lehanneur first began turning the heads of design junkies at MOMA's 2008 show "Design and the Elastic Mind"-- a watershed survey celebrating fusions of technology and wild imagination. With its Lucite lines, lush green interior and rounded corners, the Andrea purifier featured in the exhibit resembles a mash-up of a terrarium and an iMac, but its function is less visible. Inspired by NASA research and designed by Lehanneur and partner David Edwards so that the plants in it metabolize the micro-toxins in the air, it's nothing less than a domestic breathing machine.
Though he's inspired by nature, Lehanneur isn't interested in biomimicry, but rather in the symbiosis between living and synthetic materials, often to solve environmental problems. Lehanneur's Local River, at first glance a large aquarium-cum-herb garden, is in fact designed to be an indoor food farm, with the locavore in mind. He also integrates technology into his designs for commercial products such as Binauric's Boom Boom speakers and Lexon's Take Time watch.
