What i was supposed to do last night. (Frank Ghery, nice building now what?)

begins with story. The story has humor, and no point other than to add humor. Humor to start is an universal tactic. Not normal TEd talk almost Q&A. Speaks of his life and how he began being an architect. Speaks about the fact that, he goes into each new project with apprehension.
- I get a humble yet proud feeling from Frank, as if he is immensely proud but knows he should be humble.
-However, the is not much depth of thought in this TED talk, it is more of a speech on the achievements of Frank Ghery. Beyond that though, his approach to his Architecture shows his creativity, His statement "If i know where im going, i throw it away" It really shows, not only his spontaneity, but that the true beauty of his work lies in the fact that it is first, not work, and second a creation truly of a genuine and unique idea.


In his speaking little is remarkable, it seems more a monotone memoir of an old talented architect, however elements of his almost childlike mischievous nature clearly shine though art several points in his monologue.
