Curious by Design

Adventures in Engineering and Creativity

De: Steve Alcorn

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Curious by Design describes a journey of invention, imagination, and the occasional malfunctioning animatronic.

From an untethered childhood to designing the world’s most complex theme park attractions, Steve Alcorn has spent a lifetime exploring the crossroads of art and engineering. Along the way, he’s built companies, created rides, composed music, coded operating systems, mentored thousands of writers—and still found time to sculpt a few nudes.

Spanning decades of creative adventure, this is the story of one man’s relentless curiosity: how things work, how stories are told, and how a life can be built one experiment at a time.

Told with warmth, wit, and a clear-eyed love of learning, Curious by Design is for anyone who’s ever straddled the worlds of science and art—or wondered if they really had to choose.

Whether you’re a theme park fan, an aspiring author, or just someone with a lifelong case of “how does that work?”, this book offers insight, inspiration, and a few laugh-out-loud detours.
