Video: Conversation with Ben Cheever about design

Had a good chat with the noted author Ben Cheever, on his TV talk show "About Writing." (Also joining us was magazine and book editor Rob Fleder.) There's some good discussion about the definition of design but I think the most interesting exchanges happen when we start to talk about optimism versus cynicism (at the 19:00 mark), and how the latter can cause some to be skeptical of and even resistant to design's potential.
