2003 年的演講中，設計評論家 Don Norman 藉著檢視令人滿意的設計，其犀利的眼光看上了美感、趣味、快樂、及情感。他提示了優良設計產品成功的三項情感線索。都有漢譯從The Design of Everyday Things By Don Norman 1988 到 好設計不簡單 2011/Living with complexity. 2010 複雜性是好事。簡單會誤導人。美好的生活是複雜、豐富且有意義的——但前提是它必須是可理解的、合理的且有意義的。    

為什麼我們並不真正想要簡單，以及我們如何學習與複雜共存。

「如果今天的技術更簡單就好了」——這是人們普遍的感嘆，但這種想法是錯誤的。在這本引人深思且內容豐富的書中，唐‧諾曼寫道，我們科技的複雜性必須反映我們生活的複雜性和豐富性。問題不在於複雜性本身，而在於糟糕的設計。糟糕的設計會不必要地使事情複雜化，讓我們感到困惑。好的設計則能駕馭複雜性。

諾曼為我們帶來了一堂關於複雜性優勢的速成課。設計師必須創造出能夠駕馭複雜性的產品。但我們也必須盡自己的一份力：我們必須花時間學習結構並練習技能。我們就是這樣掌握了閱讀和寫作、駕駛汽車和進行運動的，我們也正是這樣才能掌握我們複雜的工具。

複雜性是好事。簡單會誤導人。美好的生活是複雜、豐富且有意義的——但前提是它必須是可理解的、合理的且有意義的。

Why we don't really want simplicity, and how we can learn to live with complexity.

If only today's technology were simpler It's the universal lament, but it's wrong. In this provocative and informative book, Don Norman writes that the complexity of our technology must mirror the complexity and richness of our lives. It's not complexity that's the problem, it's bad design. Bad design complicates things unnecessarily and confuses us. Good design can tame complexity.

Norman gives us a crash course in the virtues of complexity. Designers have to produce things that tame complexity. But we too have to do our part: we have to take the time to learn the structure and practice the skills. This is how we mastered reading and writing, driving a car, and playing sports, and this is how we can master our complex tools.

Complexity is good. Simplicity is misleading. The good life is complex, rich, and rewarding--but only if it is understandable, sensible, and meaningful.

想引用Don Norman的話，這段由Don Norman 比著自己說 “The new me is beauty”開場的演說，或許使用在「數學」也很貼切！哪一天「數學」也可以說“The new me is beauty” ^_______^ （內容也很精彩喲～可能很符合我的幽默感，所以我覺得整段都很有趣！）
