Can you believe it’s been 10 YEARS of Clever?! Neither can we. So we wanted to go (all the way) back and check back in on some of our favorite conversations. We’re starting with Joe Doucet, our very first episode. And, we look ahead too — what have our brilliant guests been up to in the intervening years? What was their experience like with Clever? Read below to hear from Joe, and make sure to tune in each week over the next few months as we continue to hear from our favorite makers, builders, thinkers, and innovators.
From the archives, May 3, 2016: New York-based multi-disciplinary designer, Joe Doucet, tells Amy and Jaime why he doesn’t start any project with sketching, how a pair of avant-garde headphones caught the attention of Lady Gaga, and how he cross-trains his brain.

Clever: Please share a few of your major milestones since your episode of Clever first aired in May 2016?
Joe: I did end up winning the Cooper Hewitt National Design Award. I’ve started several new ventures focused around the intersection of Design, Innovation and sustainability. Notably Airiva the wind turbine wall I developed. Also we’ve formed a new company to develop and distribute the climate responsive paint I also created. Busy finishing up an installation for May with a sound system I developed in collaboration with AI called Transmissions. Opening May 15th at Heft Gallery NYC.
Clever: Please offer one brief reflection on your experience of Clever.
Joe: I had no idea what I was getting in to, but knowing Amy and Jaime I had every faith it was going to be something interesting. It is such an honor to have been the first guest among the many, many luminaries who followed.
