I agree. I was surprised to hear that he went to Parsons and worked for Google. I think imagination is absolutely key to technological and economic success. Unfortunately, right now it really seems like imagination is taking root in some sectors, but not others. I also think it's a bummer that a whole generation was brought up being told to be imaginative and creative and then told that they'll have to invent jobs for themselves or reshape themselves to fit into slots created for old-model thinking. I'm with you on NASA. I think it's such a shame that something so iconic and in the spirit of the American ideal has been marginalized to bolster institutions that limit imagination. I like the monster machines thing. I did something similar where I would draw cars like the Batmobile but instead of "batmobile" it would be the _______mobile. I had a whole stack of them someplace. I guess I took a lot of ideas from Wacky Races but I tried to develop the ideas a bit further.
