‘Objects of Our Life’ — Steve Jobs at the 1983 International Design Conference in Aspen
New from the Steve Jobs Archive: an hourlong video of young Steve Jobs delivering a talk on design in 1983. Jony Ive wrote a splendid introduction:
The revolution Steve described over 40 years ago did of course
happen, partly because of his profound commitment to a kind of
civic responsibility. He cared, way beyond any sort of functional
imperative. His was a victory for beauty, for purity and, as he
would say, for giving a damn. He truly believed that by making
something useful, empowering and beautiful, we express our love
for humanity.
