In this interesting talk from September’s TEDxLondon, subtited “Education Revolution,” Snibbe Interactive founder Scott Snibbe reminds that “math was invented to model nature.” He explored this and other notions while working on Bjork’s critically-lauded iPad app and album project Biophilia. In this video, Snibbe recounts the creative process as well as demonstrates the live integration of the app into Bjork’s interactive onstage performances.
“Sometimes education misses the poetry, motion and wonder of the natural world,” says Snibbe, who points to the possibilities of iPads and apps as a means of combining educational initiatives with entrepreneurial pursuits. He added wryly, “I pledge to continue making art that tricks people into learning about science.”
