We just can’t get enough of Yves Béhar.

The designer of the open-source Ouya console attended last week’s GamesBeat and MobileBeat conferences, and we have the interviews to prove it. And here’s one more, in which Béhar sits down with VentureBeat’s Matt Marshall.

In addition to the Ouya and its record-breaking Kickstarter, Béhar talks about the design philosophies that fed into projects like the Jambox wireless speaker and PayPal Here, a pay-anywhere service going up against Square.
