"Do you believe in user testing?"
"No"
*Dylan poker face* haha
Hands down the best moment of Config2024😂
he doesnt seem to understand what he means with user testing / research 😀from his answer it seems focus groups..
Apple also famously doesn't do user testing . . .
@@cinderful sorry, but that's not true. Apple was one of the early adopters of usability testing, with their design guidelines from 1982 emphasizing the importance of user personas and considering all users
@@cinderfulor care about engagement metrics
This was by far the most hilarious interview I've heard at Config
One day a guy knocked on our door and now he is head of our development 😂😂
And we're not sure he's good at it.
The world needs more designers like Jesper and less designers "by the book" that learn how to design in a 4 month courses and only repeat a recipe to do things like they were gurus without never think critically about design.
Amen. Every UX designers head blew off when he said he doesn't believe in user testing or research

Love this conversation
What a character. I recently acquired myself an OP-1 and after using it I became very curious how the creators came with such an idea. The answer to this must be no user testing!
Share the slides please
i'm taking screenshots
Jesper is such a cool guy 😎
Would love to see a teenage engineering designed car dash/HUD
this was soooo good! thanks you!
Wow, now I'm a fan of him ;)
That's why Teenage Engineering products are so fun to use.
One of the most interesting talk this yr imo 😅
This guy rules
Silicon valley vibes - "This guy f@#@s"
Highlights. 34:57 - 35:15 - 35:29
Come here because of carl pei's tweet
In my opinion good design has nothing to do with design authors. I disagree with that, because its a problem of ego, but i agree that is need to be good at problem solving. Thank you Config for this interesting talk.
This is a rockstar.
Slides available anywhere?

"I'm not a musician" that explains a lot!
Where my 🕳 gang at!
We're here buddy!
Phone (2a) is based on the original concept on nothing phone
i'd like to apply for the mascot job pls
TL;DW Translation: Don't be a dweeb or buy into every "rule". Have fun, dreams, visions and drive them to create cool shit with people who inspire you.
His perspective is from the artist designer, where people buy into your design because of you. Nearly all designers can't be that, hence his advice will be doubted by those 'generic' practitioners. He is to design as Gehry or Hadid are to architects - nearly all architects are unknown and replaceable creators of generic, low budget, and very disposable, buildings. You're likely not going to be that type of designer, but keep your mind open to the possibility or you will suffocate others with 'no's'. You'll have no unique points of view or differentiation and you'll be replaced by AI as soon as possible because your creative muscles have atrophied to nothing if they were there in the first place
If you are not innovating, you aren't designing, you're just following rules. Designers have the obligation to always believe or try to become Gehry or Hadid, but with their own sense of identity. It's the only way you can truly be a designer. If you go into this career just to get by and get "work", it's not the right one. As a designer you need to challenge the norm, shake things up, and always improve.... It's a lifestyle
okay thats why their products costs so much - to pay salary to all the mascots. this is really sad.

Come here to hear jesper's perspective on nothing
a+ cope
@@vinniep237it’s a joke about one of his clients 😅
jesper is based. brian chesky is a wordcel - a sf status quo bro. be more like jesper.
If he thinks car design is just styling he should talk to the folks at Tesla were form follows function
Lol, really?
@@oksanagritcai9556 yep
Man this was a bore interview lol and the dude was so monotone ha
Quite a bit of dry interview but cool guy overall
this aint the kind of guy you wanna follow to be succesful
With this attitude, he managed to create a successful advertising agency, which allowed him to buy not one, but several Lamborghinis. He founded Acne Studios, then taught himself CAD and hardware, and started Teenage Engineering, which is pretty successful. He's definitely not as successful as you in writing comments though
@@index_html keyboard warriors be crazy! let him be...
@@index_htmlno problem with the dude but if a lambo much less 2 is your measure of success…that would be the reason above all not to follow someone 😂🖤
@@ItsWesSmithYo I was talking about Jasper, who mentioned he wanted a Lambo and got a few. Money aside, wanting something and achieving it by doing what you like is success
@@index_html I respect the hustle on the re-direct;). keep it poppin' baby
Still don't know who this guy is I'm not a celebrity worshipper I support all my designer frens ❤
Delusional Field has no idea how bad Figma is for designers . Does he think that design would rub on him? Hire real designers, not interview them.
Figma is amazing for designers also Field is a designer so you might want to do some research 🧐
this aint it
you ain’t it
cope harder
