Jamie MustardThe Iconist: The Art and Science of Standing Out
Sprecher: Mustard, Jamie
Jamie Mustard is a strategic multi-media consultant and Iconist. His passion is to teach the science and "art of obviousness," helping professionals, change agents, artists, and businesses confidently and at will make their messages, brands and ideas stand out to their desired audiences. A graduate of the London School of Economics, Jamie's work is an explanation of the "economics of attention," based on the primal laws of human perception called Blocks. He has spoken, educated, and inspired others with his work prolifically, including TED at the creative giant, Wieden and Kennedy. Jamie's Iconist work has spanned some of the world's leading companies, artists, and the globe. Growing up in severe poverty in inner city Los Angeles, Jamie overcame obstacles to eventually codify a system of primal laws that can now help us all.
