    Absolutely incredible professor. At this point I've finished binge watching all of the videos on this channel from the last year and a half. I'm not a design student but merely someone interested in design and specially industrial design. Your passion and effort put into these lectures on youtube is insane and I wish I had as good of professors in university as your students do. Your work deserves more recognition and I hope that through TH-cam you might still be able to afford a couple of Ross Lovegrove's MUON KEF speakers. Thank you very much for continuing to educate the new generation with such beautiful and cativating presentations.

    The engineer in me is fascinated by the machinery you've shown at 27:15. Simply astonishing what great minds can think up. As usual, an intriguing burst of information, Matthew Bird!

    I love alot of the rectangular shaped cuts. That Kimberly Diamond had me drooling. I also love those truly rectangular pieces, with the longer ones being called bars....

    A feast for the eyes and mind! I wish I had professors like you when I was in college 15 years ago. Mine had 100 page bullet projections with a zillion words and 1 picture and voices like vacuum cleaners.

    I'm so happy I found you, subscribed! I'm about to fall asleep so I just dropped by to tell you how much I love your channel. I will be back asap!
    ...I shouldn't have looked up at the video, wide awake now. Ugh discipline, I have to sleep, I will be back!
    ...And I'm back!
    (I watch ads because I can't afford anything else, btw).
    I'm in awe of the technology and minds that made the all diamond rings possible, you also told me why I've never seen a jamb peg before. I learned a more than that just now.

    Oh my. "Smear new technologies". That's a quote for the ages. And considering we are inside the foyer of our own mass extinction event, it's a bit late for that sentiment. If we could have learned that lesson a century ago , or even 50 years ago. 💋

    What is Paste? I mean in jewelry. Glass? Or early resin?

      @HistoryofID  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The name is confusing, for sure! It is glass. Cast into the shape of a gemstone and then polished, or cut and polished.

    'cutting' stones was 1 of the earliest skills of 'modern 'humans' and go back 100000 years.

    Hey Prof, where does one draw the line between being inspired and merely stealing some dead designers design ? So what happens, you create a unique desk designed out of eliminating clutter, e.g I sit at an 8 foot long table with so much clutter I can't draw so the junk on the table gets put on a chair which gives me the idea: have a lower and upper level of the 8' long table so I keep the clutter at arms length yet have a clear space to draw on A3 size paper. But then what happens if Paul Frankl's great, great grand kids want to kill me for plagiarism cause he thought of it 200 years ago. Do we have to develop a square wheel because someone else designed the round ones ???

      @canadiangemstones7636 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is very, very little that is new. Zero chance of somebody suing you for building a table! (Unless you put a a Marvel or Disney character on it and sell it.)

    Just a little correction on some Inaccurate information u gave.
    In all the instructions God gave Noah....taking gemstones aboard The Ark....is NOT... mentioned ANYWHERE in
    The Bible! God sent ANGELS aboard The Ark w/Noah and His family...THEY provided the Needed LIGHT, calming of the animals, & keeping Noah's family safe.
    Noah had No need for the jewels. They would have been mere useless stones to them.

    • @HistoryofID
      @HistoryofID  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Right you are! The bible merely mentions an opening (a window). It is in the Talmud that stones are described. Also sometimes translated as window, and even as just plain old noon. Language is so flexible....
