Paul Carberry

In this episode, we talk with Paul Carberry. Paul is an engineer who had the vision to redesign the classic Enfield Bullet and take it to Enfield Motorcycles in India to get it on the production line. This vision took him on a 20-year journey of researching, development, building a team, building a prototype, pitching to Enfield, etc. It's a story with many ups and downs, a story of dedication, and a real example of vision and tenacity to bring your ideas to reality.

The core elements of design, development, entrepreneurship, and passion that are explored in this discussion about Pauls's journey are something we can relate to as artists. It was also interesting to hear what elements of the design within engineering drew on aesthetics, and which elements were purely pragmatic.

Here are some links to the Carberry Enfield, and some of the other things we spoke about;
