Ki**********:

Very disappointed the flag for buffalo doesnt have a buffalo on it

ro******:

my dad was a chicago cop from 1966-1998. when he passed away in 1998, his casket was draped with the Chicago flag at his funeral--a gift from the city.

Iz************:

If this is the original or main location, why isn't it called the "TEDquarters"?

th**********:

To everyone who watched this, please google Pocatello's new flag. Now that's what I call a redemption.

72******:

Here's Pocatello's new flag, if anyone is curious:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pocatello,_Idaho#/media/File:New_Pocatello,_Idaho_flag_2017.png

I think it's a good improvement.

Jo****:

In Germany City Flags are rare just because of our history.

Is********:

"Poor Pocatello." will be my new motto for really specific disappointment.

Di***:

Me: "I wonder what my city flag looks like."
Googles City of Sydney Flag
Me: "Give me the Milwaukee flag!"

Ny****:

Why city flags may be the worst-designed thing you've never noticed
Liberian Counties: Hold my MS Paint

fi*************:

I guess it's time to redesign my town flag in Animal Crossing

Da**********:

I live in the suburbs of Chicago and we spent a solid 2 weeks learning about the Chicago flag and what it stands for and had a test on it. We literally have never talked about the Illinois flag.

Ed************:

If you want to see good flags, search up Japanese Perfectures. Cleanest looking flags on Earth.

Jo**********:

Thank you so much for critiquing Milwaukee's City Flag (from 1954)! This set in motion a wonderful design process, a winning entry, and a gradual adoption of the result as "The People's Flag" of Milwaukee over the past years. Now (2018), the Milwaukee Common Council is considering to make it official. The new flag is beautiful https://milwaukeeflag.com/ As a current resident of Milwaukee, I understand and appreciate the symbolism of the new flag, and its graphic design conveys the rich history and meaning of the lake, the rivers, and the people of Milwaukee very well.

Ty***********:

dude came with his own background music

Ho*************:

Never thought someone could interest me flags. Can't believe I watched the whole thing.

Th*****:

"never use seals"
spain has entered the chat

Co*********:

Laugh if you will at Milwaukee and San Francisco, but behold the trainwreck that is the flag of Sydney, Australia https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f8/Flag_of_Sydney.jpg

Et*********:

15:42 "But also it could become a symbol of how that city considers design itself"


One, singular clap

Ir*******:

Oh my god. When I was younger this was my mother's favorite TED Talk. I've been listening to 99% Invisible for a few years. Just connected the dots now. Damn.

sa************:

Yo SF needs to pay Neil Musset for his design and just adopt it already. Wow.

Th****:

There are some state flags that need to be redesigned. Pennsylvania, for example.

Ho************:

There is a show he might like. It’s called „Fun with Flags“

Ca**********:

it's so weird to actually see his face while he speaks

sl*:

I live in Milwaukee, and I knew he would bring up the flag, I knew it.

jo******:

no one:

this guy: "welcome to my ted talk I'm gonna be roasting flags for 20 minutes"

Ru******************:

Over 4 years later and Milwaukee has the same flag.

Le***********:

The Anaheim city council actually mentioned that this video was one of the things that brought about the idea to change it. They also cited the creation of the new Angel Stadium and the need for something not-awful to fly on the flagpoles in front. Since then, the city has installed the flag in at least 20 public places (as opposed to zero places before) and the old one's been pretty much forgotten.
It's 3 horizontal bars of dark blue, light blue, dark blue, and ring of 6 white stars centered to represent the 6 city districts. Nothing inspired or innovative but it's so much better than the old one.

Se*********:

As a former resident of Amsterdam: yes, the flag is cool. Immediately recognisable, too. And if you look at the country that Amsterdam is the capital of, the Netherlands, that has a pretty great flag, too. It's the oldest revolutionary flag in the world, and although it started as orange-white-blue, it quickly became red-white-blue. I like to think that those colours inspired many other (revolutionary) flags. It's simple as well: three horizontal stripes, equal in size, featuring primary colours (and white). You just don't see it a lot in the Netherlands, only one single flag on government buildings, because the Dutch aren't that keen on waving flags about.
