Kanye West's "iPlane" Pitch to President Used Industrial Designer Shabtai Hirshberg's Masters Thesis Rendering
I'm not sure why anyone qives Kanye any oxygen on anything.
Any press is good press? Thanks for linking the designer.
I really got a kick out of this story in part because I had been looking at the "DesignShabtai" Facebook page a year ago so I recognized his name immediately.
In other design news from the SAME EVENT, Kanye appeared to claim sole* credit for the Adidas comeback, when it really was the work of many people at Adidas and the result of the big sales of shoe lines like Boost and Superstar. Adidas' decision to give their US HQ in Portland the design lead is also really important. Yes, Adidas has gotten more than their money's worth out of Kanye since they signed him, but he sure isn't helping now. Unless that changes, he will be dropped. https://adage.com/article/cmo-strategy/adidas-ceo-support-kanye-west-slavery-remark/313374/
He was fresh off a visit to CCS
Correct, he also post some of the students work but did not give them any credit either. Totally uncool.
Nothing wrong with having a vision...is that illegal yet?
This happens when a design the has been circulated on the Internet. Public Domain.
What the difference between this new aircraft that can't actually fly and a flying carpet..... Nothing. It's just another make believe vehicle from a CCS student. I think Mr West is a behanced fan he would not pay the fee on coroflot to browse through some suff, he's not that sick in the head, lol
Kanye West did do some photoshopping on Mr. Shabtai's design. He got rid of the KLM livery on the plane.
Smart, really smart, people like Kanye... especially because of his designing... do.
They don’t think it be like it is, but it do.
