Video Why Not Admit There is a Problem With Math and Music? Dan Formosa at TEDxDrexelU

Dan Formosa's work covers many areas of design. A unifying theme is the thought that great design first requires understanding people. To accomplish that, design needs to embrace complexity. To that end, Dan's TEDxDrexelU talk will focus on math, music, design, and how it all seems to have gone terribly wrong. In 1980 Dan helped establish Smart Design to explore ways design can positively affect peoples lives. He frequently lectures on biomechanics, information design, behavior, gender and social responsibility. He also recently helped create the new Masters in Branding program at the School of Visual Arts in New York City.

About TEDx: In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
