在这对设计反叛者的颂歌中，Alice Rawsthorn强调了从黑胡子到弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔这些看似不可能的设计英雄的作品。通过区分这些大胆的思考家和一些现代早期的预见者如巴克敏斯特·富勒，Rawsthorn展现了最伟大的设计家通常是最反叛的。

Design is a slippery
and elusive phenomenon,
and elusive phenomenon,

3022
设计是一件难以定义，难以描述的事。
00:15
which has meant different
things at different times.
things at different times.
1
3921
3261
在不同时期，它的意义也不同。
00:19
But all truly inspiring design projects
have one thing in common:
have one thing in common:
2

4268
但所有真正有启发性的设计作品都有一个共同点：
00:23
they began with a dream.
3
11498
1826
它们始于一个梦想。
00:25
And the bolder the dream,
4
13679
1438
梦想越是宏远，
00:27
the greater the design feat
that will be required to achieve it.
that will be required to achieve it.
5
15141
3641
所需要的设计技艺就越大胆
00:30
And this is why the greatest
designers are almost always
designers are almost always
6
18806
3894
而这就是为什么最伟大的设计师总是
00:34
the biggest dreamers
and rebels and renegades.
and rebels and renegades.
7
22724
3688
最大的梦想家、叛逆者和革新者。
00:38
This has been the case throughout history,
8
26787
2783
这样的例子在历史中比比皆是。
00:41
all the way back to the year 300 BC,
9
29594
3921
300 公元前，
00:45
when a 13-year-old became the king
10
33539
3119
一个十三岁的孩子成为了
一个偏僻贫穷的亚洲小国家的君主。
00:48
of a remote, very poor
and very small Asian country.
and very small Asian country.
11
36682
4443
00:53
He dreamt of acquiring land,
riches and power
riches and power
12
41475
3485
他梦想通过武力征服
得到土地，财富和权利。
00:56
through military conquest.
13
44984
1667
而他的设计能力
00:58
And his design skills --
14
46675
1383
01:00
improbable though it sounds --
15
48082
1823
对他实现梦想必不可少，
01:01
would be essential
in enabling him to do so.
in enabling him to do so.
16
49929
3045
尽管这听起来不可能。
01:05
At the time,
17
53605
1150
那时，
01:06
all weapons were made by hand
to different specifications.
to different specifications.
18
54779
3410
所有武器都是手工制造以至于规格都不同，
01:10
So if an archer ran out
of arrows during a battle,
of arrows during a battle,
19
58213
3306
所以当一个弓箭手在一场战争中射完了所有的箭，
01:13
they wouldn't necessarily be able
to fire another archer's arrows
to fire another archer's arrows
20
61543
3923
他们不一定能用自己的弓
射出其他弓箭手的箭。
01:17
from their bow.
21
65490
1848
01:19
This of course meant that they would
be less effective in combat
be less effective in combat
22
67362
3561
这自然意味着他们在战斗中将缺乏战斗力，
01:22
and very vulnerable, too.
23
70947
1904
也很容易受伤。
嬴解决了这个问题。
01:25
Ying solved this problem
24
73339
1602
01:26
by insisting that all bows and arrows
were designed identically,
were designed identically,
25
74965
4091
他坚持所有弓和箭都要设计得一模一样，
这样它们就能被交换使用。
01:31
so they were interchangeable.
26
79080
1731
01:32
And he did the same for daggers,
axes, spears, shields
axes, spears, shields
27
80835
4002
他也统一了短剑，战斧，矛，盾
01:36
and every other form of weaponry.
28
84861
2485
及其它各种形式的武器。
01:40
His formidably equipped army
won batter after battle,
won batter after battle,
29
88002
3906
他武装精良的军队打赢了一场场战斗。
01:43
and within 15 years,
30
91932
1790
在15年里，
01:45
his tiny kingdom had
succeeded in conquering
succeeded in conquering
31
93746
3158
他的小国家成功攻占了
01:48
all its larger, richer,
more powerful neighbors,
more powerful neighbors,
32
96928
2825
所有更广阔，更富饶，更强大的邻国，
01:51
to found the mighty Chinese Empire.
33
99777
2523
成为了强大的秦（中国）帝国。
01:55
Now, no one, of course,
34
103041
1529
如今，当然没有人
01:56
would have thought of describing
Ying Zheng as a designer at the time --
Ying Zheng as a designer at the time --
35
104594
3778
会想到把嬴政描述成那时的设计家——
他们为什么会呢？
02:00
why would they?
36
108396
1208
02:01
And yet he used design
unknowingly and instinctively
unknowingly and instinctively
37
109628
3803
但是赢在不知不觉中本能地
02:05
but with tremendous ingenuity
38
113455
1960
运用了非常巧妙的设计
02:07
to achieve his ends.
39
115439
2168
实现了他的目标。
02:09
And so did another equally
improbable, accidental designer,
improbable, accidental designer,
40
117631
4540
还有另一个听起来不可能，却偶然造就的设计家。
02:14
who was also not above using
violence to get what he wanted.
violence to get what he wanted.
41
122195
3755
他也是用武力得到了他想要的。
02:18
This was Edward Teach, better known
as the British pirate, Blackbeard.
as the British pirate, Blackbeard.
42
126376
5260
他就是爱德华·蒂奇，作为英国海盗以黑胡子闻名。
02:24
This was the golden age of piracy,
43
132012
2265
这是海盗的黄金时代，
02:26
where pirates like Teach
were terrorizing the high seas.
were terrorizing the high seas.
44
134301
3673
海盗威慑公海。
02:29
Colonial trade was flourishing,
45
137998
1969
那时殖民贸易繁荣，
02:31
and piracy was highly profitable.
46
139991
2261
海上劫掠很是有利可图。
02:34
And the smarter pirates like him
realized that to maximize their spoils,
realized that to maximize their spoils,
47
142276
4839
像蒂奇这样更加聪明的海盗意识到，
为使利益最大化，
为使利益最大化，
02:39
they needed to attack
their enemies so brutally
their enemies so brutally
48
147139
4627
他们要残忍地攻击敌人，
02:43
that they would surrender on sight.
49
151790
1793
以使敌人一见到他们就投降。
02:45
So in other words,
50
153607
1151
也就是说，
02:46
they could take the ships
without wasting ammunition,
without wasting ammunition,
51
154782
2546
他们可以不费一枪一弹，
02:49
or incurring casualties.
52
157352
2041
不伤一兵一卒地夺取船只。
02:51
So Edward Teach redesigned
himself as Blackbeard
himself as Blackbeard
53
159417
3665
所以爱德华·蒂奇变得残忍无情，
02:55
by playing the part of a merciless brute.
54
163106
2252
重塑自己成为了黑胡子。
02:57
He wore heavy jackets and big hats
to accentuate his height.
to accentuate his height.
55
165794
4025
他穿沉重的外套，戴很大的帽子以突显他的身高。
03:01
He grew the bushy black beard
that obscured his face.
that obscured his face.
56
169843
3495
他留浓密的黑胡子以模糊他的面容。
03:05
He slung braces of pistols
on either shoulder.
on either shoulder.
57
173362
3547
他把手枪背带搭在肩上。
03:08
He even attached matches to the brim
of his hat and set them alight,
of his hat and set them alight,
58
176933
3898
他甚至把点燃的火绳系在帽檐上，
03:12
so they sizzled menacingly
whenever his ship was poised to attack.
whenever his ship was poised to attack.
59
180855
4130
这样在海盗们准备攻击时，
火绳就会威胁着咝咝作响。
火绳就会威胁着咝咝作响。
03:17
And like many pirates of that era,
60
185009
2572
就像那个时代的很多海盗一样，
03:19
he flew a flag that bore
the macabre symbols
the macabre symbols
61
187605
2889
他在船上挂一面印有可怕标志的旗，
03:22
of a human skull
and a pair of crossed bones,
and a pair of crossed bones,
62
190518
3460
旗上有人的骷髅头骨和一对交叉着的骨头，
03:26
because those motifs had signified death
in so many cultures for centuries,
in so many cultures for centuries,
63
194002
5691
这些图案几百年来在很多文化中都代表着死亡，
所以即使是在公海这没有法制，没有文化的世界，
03:31
that their meaning
was instantly recognizable,
was instantly recognizable,
64
199717
2862
03:34
even in the lawless, illiterate
world of the high seas:
world of the high seas:
65
202603
3540
它们的含义立刻就能被理解：
03:38
surrender or you'll suffer.
66
206167
2476
投降，否则你会受到惩罚。
03:40
So of course, all his sensible
victims surrendered on sight.
victims surrendered on sight.
67
208667
3255
因此，那些明智的受害者一看到他就投降了。
这样看的话，
03:44
Put like that,
68
212646
1330
03:46
it's easy to see why Edward Teach
and his fellow pirates
and his fellow pirates
69
214000
4675
就很容易理解为什么
爱德华·蒂奇和他的海盗朋友们
爱德华·蒂奇和他的海盗朋友们
03:50
could be seen as pioneers
of modern communications design,
of modern communications design,
70
218699
4475
能被当作现代传播学的设计先驱，
03:55
and why their deadly symbol --
71
223198
1924
以及为什么他们的死亡标志
03:57
(Laughter)
72
225146
1062
（笑声）
03:58
there's more --
73
226232
1151
还有——
03:59
why their deadly symbol
of the skull and crossbones
of the skull and crossbones
74
227407
2985
为什么他们头骨和交叉骨头的死亡标志
04:02
was a precursor of today's logos,
75
230416
2290
会成为现今标识的前身，
04:04
rather like the big red letters
standing behind me,
standing behind me,
76
232730
3347
而不是我身后立着的大的红色字母。
04:08
but of course with a different message.
77
236101
2179
当然，这些字母传播着不同的信息。
04:10
(Laughter)
78
238304
1004
（笑声）
04:11
Yet design was also used to nobler ends
79
239332
3010
设计也被一个同样聪慧，
同样看似不可能的设计家
同样看似不可能的设计家
04:14
by an equally brilliant and equally
improbable designer,
improbable designer,
80
242366
4214
用于更加崇高的目标，
04:18
the 19th-century British nurse,
Florence Nightingale.
Florence Nightingale.
81
246604
3836
她就是十九世纪的英国护士，弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔。
04:22
Her mission was to provide
decent healthcare for everyone.
decent healthcare for everyone.
82
250464
4319
她以为所有人提供良好的医疗护理为使命。
04:27
Nightingale was born into a rather
grand, very wealthy British family,
grand, very wealthy British family,
83
255367
4416
南丁格尔生于英国的一个名门富有之家，
04:31
who were horrified when she volunteered
to work in military hospitals
to work in military hospitals
84
259807
4041
当她志愿在克里米亚战争中的军医院工作时，
04:35
during the Crimean War.
85
263872
1634
她的家人都感到震惊。
04:37
Once there, she swiftly realized
86
265963
2329
一到战地医院，她很快意识到
04:40
that more patients were dying
of infections that they caught there,
of infections that they caught there,
87
268316
3613
很多病人不是死于战争受伤，
而是死于在肮脏恶臭的病房中的感染。
04:43
in the filthy, fetid wards,
88
271953
1968
04:45
than they were of battle wounds.
89
273945
1753
04:47
So she campaigned
for cleaner, lighter, airier clinics
for cleaner, lighter, airier clinics
90
275722
4286
所以她主张设计和建造
更干净、更明亮、更通风的诊所。
04:52
to be designed and built.
91
280032
1756
04:54
Back in Britain,
92
282389
1185
回到英国后，
04:55
she mounted another campaign,
93
283598
1490
她发起了又一次运动，
04:57
this time for civilian hospitals,
94
285112
2058
这一次是为了建立平民医院，
04:59
and insisted that the same design
principles were applied to them.
principles were applied to them.
95
287194
3873
并坚持使用同样的设计准则。
05:03
The Nightingale ward, as it is called,
96
291496
2752
这所南丁格尔医院
05:06
dominated hospital design
for decades to come,
for decades to come,
97
294272
3680
几世纪来都对医院设计起了决定性影响，
05:09
and elements of it are still used today.
98
297976
3042
一些原理沿用至今。
05:13
But by then,
99
301834
1255
但是从那以后，
05:15
design was seen as a tool
of the Industrial Age.
of the Industrial Age.
100
303113
3028
设计就被当作工业时代的一种工具。
05:18
It was formalized and professionalized,
101
306165
2726
它变得正式和专业，
05:20
but it was restricted to specific roles
102
308915
2493
但也受到了局限，
05:23
and generally applied in pursuit
of commercial goals
of commercial goals
103
311432
3078
它被普遍地用于商业追求，
05:26
rather than being used intuitively,
104
314534
2275
而不是被自然地使用，
05:28
as Florence Nightingale, Blackbeard
and Ying Zheng had done.
and Ying Zheng had done.
105
316833
4226
就像被弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔，黑胡子，和嬴政的做法一样。
05:33
By the 20th century,
106
321412
1470
到二十世纪，
05:34
this commercial ethos was so powerful,
107
322906
3013
这种商业思维非常强大
05:37
that any designers who deviated from it
108
325943
2524
以至于任何背离了它的设计家
05:40
risked being seen as cranks
or subversives.
or subversives.
109
328491
3607
都冒着被看作怪人或颠覆者的危险。
05:44
Now among them is one
of my great design heroes,
of my great design heroes,
110
332538
3816
他们中有一个我崇拜的伟大设计家，
05:48
the brilliant László Moholy-Nagy.
111
336378
2528
杰出的拉兹洛·莫霍利·纳吉。
05:50
He was the Hungarian artist and designer
112
338930
2767
他是匈牙利艺术家和设计家，
05:53
whose experiments with the impact
of technology on daily life
of technology on daily life
113
341721
4256
他关于科技对日常生活影响的著名实验
05:58
were so powerful
114
346001
1166
05:59
that they still influence
the design of the digital images
the design of the digital images
115
347191
3300
依然影响着
我们在手机和电脑上看到的数字图像设计
06:02
we see on our phone and computer screens.
116
350515
2722
在二十世纪二十年代的德国，
他使包豪斯艺术学院变得激进，
他使包豪斯艺术学院变得激进，
06:05
He radicalized the Bauhaus Design
School in 1920s Germany,
School in 1920s Germany,
117
353658
4697
06:10
and yet some of his former
colleagues shunned him
colleagues shunned him
118
358379
2747
然而几年后当他在芝加哥
努力要建一所新的包豪斯时，
努力要建一所新的包豪斯时，
06:13
when he struggled to open a new
Bauhaus in Chicago years later.
Bauhaus in Chicago years later.
119
361150
4618
他之前的一些同事都躲着他。
06:18
Moholy's ideas were as bold
and incisive as ever,
and incisive as ever,
120
366194
4214
莫霍利拥有前所未有、大胆敏锐的想法，
06:22
but his approach to design
was too experimental,
was too experimental,
121
370432
3727
但是他的设计方法太具实验性，
06:26
as was his insistence
on seeing it, as he put it,
on seeing it, as he put it,
122
374183
3484
就如他坚持见证他的想法一样，用他的话说，
06:29
as an attitude, not a profession
to be in tune with the times.
to be in tune with the times.
123
377691
4299
这是一种态度，而不是合时宜的一种表达。
遗憾的是，另外一位特立独行的设计者
06:34
And sadly, the same applied
124
382782
1853
06:36
to another design maverick:
Richard Buckminster Fuller.
Richard Buckminster Fuller.
125
384659
4484
理查德·巴克敏斯特·富勒也有同样遭遇。
06:41
He was yet another
brilliant design visionary
brilliant design visionary
126
389167
3690
他还是一位优秀的的设计预见者和设计活动家。
06:44
and design activist,
127
392881
1417
06:46
who was completely committed
to designing a sustainable society
to designing a sustainable society
128
394322
4564
他致力于设计一个可持续发展的社会。
这种设计思维那么具有前瞻性，
06:50
in such a forward-thinking way
129
398910
1880
06:52
that he started talking about
the importance of environmentalism
the importance of environmentalism
130
400814
3340
以至于在二十世纪二十年代
06:56
in design in the 1920s.
131
404178
2753
他就开始讨论环境保护在设计中的重要性。
06:59
Now he, despite his efforts,
132
407632
2453
虽然他如此努力
07:02
was routinely mocked as a crank
by many in the design establishment,
by many in the design establishment,
133
410109
4733
但他一直被很多人嘲笑为设计领域的怪人。
诚然，
07:06
and admittedly,
134
414866
1168
07:08
some of his experiments failed,
135
416058
1793
他的一些实验失败了，
07:09
like the flying car
that never got off the ground.
that never got off the ground.
136
417875
2994
比如从没有飞起来的飞行汽车。
07:12
And yet, the geodesic dome,
137
420893
2048
但他用来建造紧急庇护所的设计方案，
07:14
his design formula to build
an emergency shelter
an emergency shelter
138
422965
3324
也就是用木片、金属、塑料
07:18
from scraps of wood, metal, plastic,
139
426313
2681
07:21
bits of tree, old blankets,
plastic sheeting --

非凡绝妙的成就一样，
08:16
which have been extraordinary and immense,
158
484477
2595
08:19
I also believe
159
487096
1461
我同样相信
08:20
that design benefits hugely
from the originality,

moment in design,

because this is a time when the two camps
are coming closer together.

164
501653
4804
因为这正是两个阵营正在越走越近的时刻。
08:38
Because even very basic advances

比用到干净的自来水还要多。
09:32
And among them is Arthur Zang.
181
560991
2627
这些设计师中就有亚瑟 张，
09:35
He's a young, Cameroonian design engineer
182
563642

一个喀麦隆年轻的设计工程师，
09:38
who has a adapted a tablet
computer into the Cardiopad,

183
566536

他把平板电脑变成了Cardiopad，
09:42
a mobile heart-monitoring device.
184
570705
2423
一种移动心脏监测设备。
09:45
It can be used to monitor the hearts
of patients in remote, rural areas.

The data is then sent
on a cellular network

And if any problems are spotted
by the specialists there,

如果那里的专家识别到任何问题，
09:59
a suitable course of treatment
is recommended.
is recommended.
190
587770
3224
就会推荐合适的治疗方法。
10:03
And this of course saves many patients
191
591018
2311
这当然省去了很多病人
10:05
from making long, arduous, expensive
and often pointless journeys
and often pointless journeys
192
593353
5205
为去医院做的昂贵、无意义检查的长途跋涉
10:10
to those hospitals,
193
598582
1318
10:11
and makes it much, much likelier
194
599924
2279
并使他们的心脏
10:14
that their hearts
will actually be checked.
will actually be checked.
195
602227
2601
其实更有可能接受检查。
10:17
Arthur Zang started working
on the Cardiopad eight years ago,

196
605298

张亚瑟八年前开始研究Cardiopad，
10:20
in his final year at university.
197
608644
2723
那是他在大学的最后一年。
10:23
But he failed to persuade
any conventional sources

198
611391
3415
但是他没能从任何传统途径
10:26
to give him investment to get
the project off the ground.
the project off the ground.
199
614830
3427
获得投资以启动项目。
他在脸书网上公布了他的想法，
10:30
He posted the idea on Facebook,

10:32
where a Cameroonian
government official saw it

and managed to secure
a government grant for him.
a government grant for him.
202
622858

10:38
He's now developing
not only the Cardiopad,

亚瑟现在不仅在研究Cardiopad，
10:41
but other mobile medical devices
to treat different conditions.

204
629179
4628
还有针对不同情况的其它移动医疗设备。
10:45
And he isn't alone,
205
633831
1646
他并不是一个人，
10:47
because there are many other
inspiring and enterprising designers

206
635501

因为还有很多其他激励人心富有想象力的设计家
10:52
who are also pursuing
extraordinary projects of their own.

207
640448
3892
在推行他们自己不同凡响的项目。
10:56
And I'm going to finish
by looking at just a few of them.

11:08
as a portable eye examination kit.
212

2601
用于便携式眼科诊断。
11:11
Then there's Gabriel Maher,
213
659639
1922
还有加布里埃尔·马赫，
11:13
who is developing a new design language
214
661585
2074
他正在开发一种新的设计语言
11:15
to enable us to articulate the subtleties
of our changing gender identities,
of our changing gender identities,
215
663683
5120
使我们不用依赖传统形象

11:20
without recourse
to traditional stereotypes.

All of these designers and many more
are pursuing their dreams,
