TED Talk Will Wright: Toys that make worlds

Report

In a friendly, high-speed presentation, Will Wright demos his upcoming game, Spore, which promises to dazzle users even more than his previous masterpieces. In Spore, Wright encourages users to create not households, as in The Sims, or cities, as in SimCity, but the entire universe, from single-celled life forms to galactic physics. While guiding us through his mesmerizing beta, Wright shares his thoughts on Montessori schools, Darwinian theory and long-term thinking, emphasizing throughout that Spore is not so much a game as an opportunity for discovery -- "an imagination amplifier."
