Library of Imagination: Jay Walker’s Inspirational Space

In my quest to find inspirational spaces… I’ve come across this TED video of Jay Walker sharing the insides of his “Library Of Imagination.” Not only does he have an amazing collection of one-of-a-kind relics, but he presents them in a space that looks like it’s been cooked up by the Disney Imagineers and Willy Wonka. He has objects that span 5000 years of imagination!

The beginning of the video, Jay talks about some of his artifacts… Just past the 3 minute mark, you’ll see images from the Library of Imagination.

Wired magazine did a write-up on this space in their October ’08 edition. Here are some of those photos featuring the Library:

    I love that idea, 1 lump of coal equals 1 Mb of information being downloaded. Thanks for sharing this, Paul.

    I saw this before. I was just pointing it out to my dad. Thought the truth behind the success of the printing press was interesting. It seems common that “products” that become particularly useful to humanity are often evolved from their original uses. The internet itself is a good example. If it were not for the existence of war, it would not exist. Nice pick, Paul. You never disappoint.

    Joy and Gratitude,
