Failure is often seen as something to avoid, but Dan Ward sees it as a gateway to innovation. Dan is a military technologist, author, USAF veteran, and innovation catalyst at MITRE Corporation, and he and Lou talk about the profound lessons failure can teach. Drawing from his book LIFT: Innovation Lessons From Flying Machines That ALMOST Worked and The People Who NEARLY Flew Them, Ward shares stories of pre-Wright brothers (more accurately pre-Wright siblings) aviation experiments that, despite ending in failure, laid the groundwork for modern flight. He explains how studying and learning from setbacks can drive innovation and problem-solving in any field.

Dan shares his innovation team's unique approach to failure: celebrating it with “failure cake.” This ritual helps his team process setbacks, learn from them, and destigmatize failure in a supportive environment. He also emphasizes the importance of storytelling, arguing that even the best ideas are meaningless if they can’t be communicated clearly. The conversation highlights how embracing failure and sharing its lessons are essential for growth, whether in aviation, design, or technology.

Mark your calendars! Lou announces that Dan will headline Rosenfeld Media’s first Failure Friday on February 7, 2025, where he’ll further discuss the failure cake practice.

Destigmatizing Failure to Encourage Innovation with Dan Ward

Hello, I am Anna and I love Pottery
I always loved being creative and enjoy trying out various styles and craft making, yet over the years I developed a special relationship to clay. My love of pottery emerged from producing sculptures and about four years ago I also started with ceramics. I just love working and experimenting with this material with seemingly endless applications. 

In short I don't mind to get my hands dirty sometimes!

As a trained architect and architectural historian, I understand structure and materials influencing my creations and inspiring an exploration of new forms with a special fondness for decorations. 

Originally from Germany I grew up on a small island in the baltic sea close to Denmark but I always felt the call of the big city and so I moved to London in 2015. Even so, a love for the beauty of nature is deep within me, and can be seen within my practice.

Ep. 199: Anna Katharina Jens

PAᏒANOID

Vittoria Rizzoli est une architecte italienne diplômée de l’école Polytechnique de Milan. A l'issue de ses études, elle part à la conquête des grandes agences américaines au sein desquelles elle affute sa pratique du projet. De retour en Europe, c'est à Paris, en France, qu'elle poursuit son parcours dans de prestigieuses agences notamment celle du décorateur de renom Patrice Nourissat, après un passage chez Jean-Paul Viguier. Puis elle crée sa propre agence.

Dans ce numéro de Com d'Archi, Vittoria nous fait voyager en partant de Parme sa ville natale et de sa culture. Elle témoigne avec un regard parfois nostalgique sur les savoirs-faire d'excellence des grands projets que permettaient hier les clients les plus fortunés : une approche de l'excellence des métiers de la conception qui n'existe plus vraiment aujourd'hui à part peut-être les missions muséales, une époque où la réussite, le mérite emmenaient au plus haut de l'expression artistique, de la culture, dans l'esprit de la transmission. Vittoria est esthète, aime le patrimoine. Ainsi elle est plus que apte aujourd'hui à tirer le meilleur parti des espaces domestiques parisiens . Ceux, souvent exigus, dans lequel le tout à chacun chanceux peut encore et parfois s'offrir de nos jours. Là elle y décline tout une palette d'astuces et de couleurs révélatrice de son haut degré de technicité et de professionnalisme en tant qu'architecte, architecte d'intérieur et designer.

Special series @gtalksradio at NEW INC brings together the diasporic approach of gtalks! radio and the experimental ethos of NEW INC, the first museum-led incubator for art, design, and technology founded by the New Museum in 2014.

Each episode is a peek into the practice of storytellers through different mediums. Curating advice and visibility for communities navigating the emerging landscape of art, technology, and entrepreneurship. Between conversations, featured guests share a playlist of their most played recent tunes, as a sonic backdrop to their creative process.

The show is recorded in the NEW INC office, reimagined as a vessel for dissecting the intersectionality of art, design, and technology through individual conversations.

The series’ jingle is the work of composer and sound artist Etienne Mason, known professionally as MAYSUN. MAYSUN, recognized for his unique fusion of drumming and immersive soundscapes, has crafted a piece that features a sampled string riff from the Uyghur Sataer, ساتار. This riff was recorded by Gulnihal during her recent visit to Kashgar, China.

Great art almost feels like magic—it opens our minds to brand new ideas, and teaches us to see ourselves and our world more clearly. Of course, behind all great art, there are artists. And that’s where the real magic happens…

As we go beneath the art itself to explore how different artists do what they do, we see glimpses of the sorts of creativity, resilience, and bravery that lead to the art that moves our world. And maybe we can learn to borrow some of that magic for our very own thinking.

Join professional musician Emily Merrell for conversations with artists of all kinds. Together, we examine the mysteries of our own experiences, our muses and fears, our gifts and foibles, our beliefs about the origins of creativity, and the secret magic we’ve discovered in our unique creative processes. 

Mediums include: studio art, graphic design, dance, cooking, illustration, creative writing, storytelling, comedy, music composition, music performance, film making, acting, production, fashion design, photography, and more.
