1. Why designers shouldn’t (just) solve the problems 2. Human vs Aliens 3. Hybrid space
“So what kind of design do you do?”
n1
Hybridisation of profession:
Why designers shouldn’t (just) solve the problems
- Speculative design - Strategic design - Sense-making - Relational design - Design thinking - Co-design
n2
Human-professional hybrids:
Specialisation is for insects (and aliens)
How #nevicata14 and Marx forever changed my understanding of design profession Or “why designers shouldn’t (just) solve the problems, but also freeze their asses watching their work being dismantled”
Large part of the time that I worked for #nevicata14 I was also complaining about what I was doing. But that was the thing — did I want to be a hammer, a pencil, a ruler, even a swiss-knife or the one who can juggle all of them (even if sometimes hurting the toes by things falling in the process)?
You have to be human to design for humans Designers should reinvent themselves and overcome the past limits inherited within the profession by becoming emancipated “total men� that integrate all their human capabilities, have full consciousness and completely accept their responsibility and operate with it in mind. One way to reach this is by dis-alienating - studying all the alienating factors within design profession and searching to consciously overcome them.
