Design Sojourn

Nice job bro. You mean to tell me that people are still trying to define ‘design’? There’s a parallel with ‘sustainability’ going on where people are trying to define that too. The exercise can be great when it’s new, but it’s such a waste of time philosophizing about it in the long run…because it’s better to just ‘act’ (if that isn’t getting done enough).

so, why did they invite you to give a briefing on design
when you have yet invent or design any successful product all by yourself in the market?
although never doubt your capability, designing and management is another thing……..

POLITICS, i must say

@Mario, Thanks man. Nah, I think only the Academics, out of educational needs, are doing so. Yes I agree about your observations in “sustainability”, but that is fairly “new” in the minds of many, so we should give it a chance, I suppose.

@peng ai:
Thanks for stopping by and leaving your feedback.

Honestly I’m not sure how you came to the conclusion that I have yet to invent or design any successful products? But really this is not an important factor in this conversation.

Politics you ask? Far from it, and it is getting pretty clear to me that you missed attending a really good conference. The “Design for Life” workshop was never about great and/or successful inventors doing design. The workshop was all about what design could potentially do for inventors, and to consider it as part of their entire development process. That was what my presentation and the write up in this post was all about.
