Patterns For Smartness is not a TED talk about increasing your brain's ability to process information in a systematic way as we were all led to believe. Instead, it's about something much more sublime, interesting, and important. It's about what colors make you your most exciting and attractive self? It's about experimenting with actual fabrics, cutting out patterns and most importantly, it's about working really hard to make a bunch of clothes for a fashion show to make money for your boyfriend's basketball team!
