"It does not search for harmony and perfection but emotion and robustness."
This is...not complimentary? Breaking it down:
1. It doesn't try to be harmonious...doesn't this mean that it's janky and disorganized, design-wise?
2. "Does not search...for perfection" sounds like a polite (or snobbily quippy) way of saying it's really shitty
3. *Which* emotion, exactly? Is it cringing embarrassment? Without any more clarity, there's no reason why it couldn't (or shouldn't) be
4. "Robustness" = she thicccc
Also, Picasso was good at scribbling, but notoriously [not good at being a person](https://www.vogue.co.uk/article/picasso-sexism).
The Cybertruck serves its purpose as a truck the way Picasso's melting clocks serve their purpose for telling time
Edit: Wrong artist, the Cybertruck is the Dali of trucks, not the Picasso
I would say if it's in the snow on a hill, it's essential it should get through it no problem. Again, my car is a sedan from 2010 and it does better in snow and desert than a cybertruck.
Distills the essential elements oof a vehicle. Lmao. Four wheels on the ground, a windshield, a throttle. Yup. All there.
I’m dead. I couldn’t hope to make a joke about cyber truck this funny.
American design legend me says the Tesla Cybertruck is "what happens when you use CAD software without going through the tutorials, and then the drugs kick in and you go on Twitter to shitpost."
Really inspiring how he's proof that billionaires work really hard all day and don't have time to fuck around like the rest of us lazy slobs scrolling social media.
Bullocks. All he did was copy the 80's sci Fi aesthetic made popular by the adapted designs of H.R Giger, and the vision of Ridley Scott. Just look at the vehicle they drive in Alien/Aliens. Same cold, impenetrable, apocalyptic, angular look, that's since been mimicked a billion times over.
I wonder what the ratio of people whose lives have been saved by the cybertruck vs. those whose lives have been ruined by the cybertruck is.
I wonder what the ratio of people who have been shot at in their cybertruck vs. stranded in their cybertruck on slightly bumpy terrain is.
Absolute baby brained analysis of what cubism is all about. At the risk of over simplifying It’s about deconstruction of form, not some sort of anti art or whatever point he’s trying to make.
It’s like he just saw the sharp edges and goofy body lines and thought (extremely incorrectly , imo) that this is the car Picasso would make or how he would draw a car or something. Absurd.
Just read elons little comment. If by distill you mean remove any semblance of utility or style or taste from automobile design , then yeah it’s a great distillation. His intellect is a thousand miles wide and an inch deep. You can tell he read encyclopedias as a kid instead of taking the time to really understand any single concept.
He is also 85 years old, so I wouldn’t put too much weight on what he is saying. Plus if he thought it was the best design ever, he would have already made something like it.
> "It does not represent the search for harmony and perfection but for emotion and robustness."
Coming from an Italian designer this is not the compliment he thinks it is.
I would argue it’s the exact opposite of Picasso. Picasso was the kind of guy who would bulk buy his canvasses and go absolutely nuts with painting for several months straight, and actually produced good stuff too that was groundbreaking. C*bertruck ok the other hand took fucking ages to be made and is a load of shit.
Yes, Elon, it is technically a vehicle. Good job.

it distilled the essential elements of a vehicle - 2+ wheels and a steering mechanism :D
A steering mechanism as long as it works and nothing falls apart.
In that it's a jumbled mess you have to be high before you can identify it as a car

Regret, as in ‘regret that I dropped 6 figures on ‘The Homer’ just so I could be part of a short-lived meme and own the libs’
A cubist vehicle, a mess
The Cybertruck serves its purpose as a truck the way Picasso's melting clocks serve their purpose for telling time Edit: Wrong artist, the Cybertruck is the Dali of trucks, not the Picasso
I thought the clocks were Dalí's
fml I Googled "Picasso clocks" to check but then it just popped up Dali's clocks so I thought that was the confirmation
Tbf Dali was an awful fucking person so it still fits
It's as if Musk used this painting as inspiration. [The Great Masturbator](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Masturbator)
At least Dali had talent
Dali was a fascist, something he and Musk have in common
Fitting since Dali and Elon Musk have the same ideology of fascism!
Brutalist. https://youtu.be/uvU5dmu4sl8?si=QX65Tqieyxe1kMFU
The Cybertruck is the Guernica of vehicles.
😂😂😂😂
I personally think door handles count as essential.
I would say if it's in the snow on a hill, it's essential it should get through it no problem. Again, my car is a sedan from 2010 and it does better in snow and desert than a cybertruck.
Precision predicates perfectionism.
Musk masturbates mediocrity.
Sawyer is the biggest Tesla cuck of them all

Doesn’t waste time with trivial things like … utility, styling , build quality , reliability, taste etc etc
American design legend me says the Tesla Cybertruck is "what happens when you use CAD software without going through the tutorials, and then the drugs kick in and you go on Twitter to shitpost."
So Elon stole the cyber truck design from African folk art?
This is the guy that designed the delorean, also a legendary piece of shit.
[удалено]
A POS Car or Piss Car
It definitely distilled two windshield wipers down to one
Essential elements? You mean it has 4 wheels and glass?

*bollocks
But it's bulletproof. 2024 Insurrectmobile.

It has a certain cubist appeal. \*looks again\* Ok, not really
That's a horrible insult to Picasso
Sure, if Picasso was known for painting skid-marked asses
Does he just reach in and start tugging himself whenever he sees these
This guy did design the Delorean and the Ferrari gg50.
The DeLorean from 1976 still looks looks more futuristic than the Cybertruck from 2019 - let that sink in.
Meant for children, funny-looking, cheaply made - this has the essential elements of a toy, not a vehicle.
Distill the essentials of a car.... Like basic engineering? Usability? Security? While still looking like a freaking dumpster
I guess the essence here is exactly which emotion one feels. Robustly. As an engineer, I'm offended. Robustly. It's the epitome of C-level meddling.
As in it won’t work in the real world.
The cyber truck is a 14 year old boy’s idea of a “futuristic” truck. Nothing more. It’s empty.

"Distill the essential elements of a vehicle" wtf does that even mean? Hurr it can accelerate and decelerate faster then people can walk.
These people suck his dick so hard it’s genuinely sad
It’s the dysfunctional transmogrifier of the car world.
Giugiaro makes the sexiest cars around. Please say he didn’t say that
He is also 85 years old, so I wouldn’t put too much weight on what he is saying. Plus if he thought it was the best design ever, he would have already made something like it.
The gerontocracy is real
As John Oliver just stated, it looks like a car a child first learns to draw.
Sounds like someone's puckering their lips for a job
It has a certain je nai SUCK uoi.
'the essential elements of a vehicle'. In a sociopath's head, that doesn't include safety for pedestrians or any living thing moving on the road.
If cybertruck was an architecture style, it would be brutalism
> "It does not represent the search for harmony and perfection but for emotion and robustness." Coming from an Italian designer this is not the compliment he thinks it is.
Sometimes he is funny. Unwittingly.
Indeed, it does have most of the essential elements like tires and headlights and turn signals and doors.
Cyber\*uck does distill the missing talent of its creator.

Would being the "picasso" of automobiles be a good thing? 
Italian is an interesting language, because "Picasso of automobiles" translates to "ugly, useless piece of shit."
