bob,

folks usually react when i use the term monkey brain. i really use it to describe the most deep seated parts of what makes us human from our evolutionary past. a lot of it are those things we innately react to. I think the true art spirit is one of those things and good design really is trying to tap the true art spirit. Look at the cave paintings, they show how far back the art spirit goes into our past. besides watch chimps for a while and then go to the mall!

cheers

I don't think it has anything to do with monkeys. The monkey brain is also wired to fling poo. Monkeys will want to touch and feel an iPhone, but the monkey will then want to use it as a hammer to crack open a nut or scare off the rival monkeys... ... ... Okay, maybe it IS about monkeys after all!!! Sorry all I just had to. :-)

Jobs also was brilliant on finding those things that are deep in the human heart, linked to that basic monkey brain to touch first then do the rest.
