Video: Jason Pamental – Curious Findings

After speaking in Berlin in 2029 for the first time, Jason Pamental returned to the beyond tellerrand stage for a second time. This time he brought a completely different talk about curiosity.

In this talk Jason states:

There is not gate to curiosity. And that’s what I think is so beautiful about it: anyone can become more curious.

The transcription of the full presentation can be found here.

Curious Findings

An exploration of curiosity – and its role in design

All our lives we hear the word in various forms – as an adjective, a noun, a verb. But what is it? Where does it come from? How does it grow?

Spurred on by a few conversations, a bit of research, and a lot of reflection – we will explore a few stories through which we’ll learn a bit about what it is, how it impacts and informs design, and how you might make it part of your own practice – if you’re curious ;)
