Watch as a desperate teacher tries to convert a live classroom experience into an online learning opportunity. 2020 Covid-19 management strategy. If you are here for class, hope you enjoy this. If you are just finding it on your own, PLEASE be kind. This is intended to solve problems in a time of crisis. It should live in a land beyond the reach of petty criticisms of my voice or mistaken pronunciation or differing interpretations that fill up so many comment boxes. Available to all because we need to work together and share resources. Feel free to use or share if this is useful in your own problem solving.

It's rare and refreshing to see such competence, articulation, and intelligent delivery, I hope a large network offers Mr. Bird a high-budget documentary series, the world needs it!

I love your classes so much! They'are so enlightening. I'm not even your student, I was just doing some research about New Art Decor and I was luck enough to find your channel . ♡

An excellent tour of key advances and technologies, with a very effective emphasis on the critical technological enablers, steam power and iron.

I didn’t know I was interested in any of this stuff and it was completely fascinating. I love this channel!🌸

Ditto. I was just sitting here thinking, "How very interesting ID is and it's so wonderful that this instructor infuses this information with anecdotes and personal asides that bring it all home." How fortunate we are to have found this channel.

Are you still paying attention to the comments on this page, Matthew? I found your videos earlier this year and have been fascinated by them. For years, I've been interested in the story of the "New Orleans", the first steamboat to travel to NOLA in 1811. About a year ago, while watching "Pride and Prejudice", it occurred to me that the characters lived during the same time frame as the invention of the steam boat. This small realization added depth to the atmosphere and characters in both Austen's novel and the people associated with the "New Orleans". And then I found your history of ID and another burrow was added to my rabbit hole.

I have loved every one of these videos! I have never looked at it from your angle, form follows aesthetics is remarkably interesting. I have always liked the form follows function school. This has widened my scope. Thank you very much.

I ordered something on eBay and it was shipped using FedEx. I did the arithmetic and it travled to me at the average speed of ten miles per hour. We've come so far.

For us unlucky lot not in your class is there any way you could post some links to the key text books! It would be really appreciated, I'm loving the lectures and would like to study the text book alongside! 🙏 Thanks so much Matthew!

There is no one perfect textbook. David Raizman's excellent History of Modern Design is the go-to. I don't use it because this is specifically an Industrial Design class, and it includes fashion and graphic design and more. I use the Fiell's Industrial Design A to Z because it is affordable and offers a nice overview (LOTS of entries, lots of color pictures, lots of information, not a lot of "ideas.") and then support it/complete it with Carma Gorman's EXCELLENT Industrial Design Reader (all primary source writings nicely introduced and explained by Gorman. No pictures, LOTS of ideas). With the pairing we get where we need to go.....

So someone else is logged into my account and they watch videos through the night. I always find videos I didnt watch and this is one of them. Im glad my hacker is using my account for education purposes though. These videos look interesting. Not sure why they dont just get their own account though?

"with music probably written by Kurt Vile" ahahahahahahahah

@HistoryofID 3 жыл бұрын

No no, not a joke! That's Kurt Weill, German composer who came to the US in 1935. That he wrote music for an overview of the history of American locomotives is such a strange bit of history. And today's Kurt Vile's name is a happy coincidence for him!

If you ever heard the song Mack the Knife (Bobby Darin and Ella Fitzgerald famously jazzed it up) it's based on Kurt Weill's music for the 1928 play The Threepenny Opera by Bertolt Brecht.

Slave labor as an inherent part of industrialization. Industrialization, capitalism, and colonialism being inseparable triplets. Is it worth it to have an industrialized society when the cost is so big? Industrialization was born out of slave labor, out of exploitation of people and resources. How can we progress to a healthier form that retains advancement but removes the exploitation treated as inherent to this system????? The Shakers are my favorite so far, as they exemplify many positive traits of industrialized society while eschewing negative ones. Maybe I just love small agrarian communities. But they prove we can have this innovation without uhhhhhhh slavery exploitation death destruction irreparable traumatic changes to ourselves and our environment (We are our environment and any harm caused to it is harm to ourselves.) Thanks for this lecture series though. Super informative. I am thriving. I know it's a good lecture series when I feel compelling to take notes.

Industrialism, capitalism, and colonialism enabled the western powers actually to end slavery in the west. Beginning with the Royal Navy but later including others such as the US, the Atlantic slave trade was ended by force, and slaving was then ended in the African colonies of the UK, precisely because of the superior technology and distinct recognition of humanity inherent in the culture of the UK, the English-speaking world, and the west. Yes, people have been exploited. Yes, that exploitation provided the labor needed to accomplish many of the advances made in the west. How can we progress to a healthier form? Exactly the way we have progressed - by recognizing that western values are fundamentally incompatible with slavery, by ending slavery, and by treating all people as individuals rather than as token representatives of ethnic groups that occupied relatively higher or lower positions on an earlier social hierarchy.
