Prototype This!

When reading and watching clips about what 'Prototype This!' is all about I found a strong connection to IDEO's team.  When being introduced to the guys I thought back to what we've learned about hot-groups.  The guys were all passionate and purposeful in their work and although don't look really diverse, they all have their specific backgrounds and specialties.  This show is a little like Myth Busters but instead of applying prototyping and design thinking to prove past myths or theories, the guys at Prototype This prototype to evolve into the future.  Their passion as well as the shows childlike and futuristic elements draw people in.  Just like other designers we have looked at these guys dive in and get hands on with building their ideas.  The cast seems to have more of a technological approach to the prototyping process but that is fitting for their projects.
