| AI and meaning; Duality in context and the third perspective as a design tool | 20 Jan 2023 | 00:53:43 | |
In this session, we discuss the relationship between AI, the potential for hyper-intelligence, and meaning through abstraction. We also discuss the notions of duality and how duality with context creates useful contrast that adds meaning and generates new perspectives, which can be used as a design tool. This links to the concept of "negative space" in Semiotics, and "Early Heaven" and "Later Heaven" from ancient Chinese Ba Gua. This brings the notion of "the third perspective" and the ability to subvert expectations through the breaking of patterns. **Sorry for the sound quality** --- LINKS

| On framing & exploring problems; using assemblage theory to understand & design for network effects | 05 Dec 2022 | 02:17:59 | |
We discuss how to frame problems to explore them and the critical need for diversity (of minds, perspectives, etc) in these early design activities. We discuss why we need to bring back imagination as many organizations (and practitioners) often jump from problem definition to solution. We then touch upon the concept of "useful frictions" in digital and virtual spaces. Finally, we talk about Assemblage Theory as a way to understand coupling effects in networks and the notions of territorialization & deterritorialization through a funny thought experiment: "what if we had to design a temporary cult". --- Join our next session 👉 https://www.meetup.com/design-critical-thinking/ Join the community on Slack 👉 https://www.designcriticalthinking.com/join-slack/ About the community 👉 https://designcriticalthinking.com Thanks to Tamika for sharing your thoughts!

| Déconstruisons le design systémique avec Fabrice Liut - 1ère partie | 26 Jun 2022 | 00:53:11 | |
Le design systémique n'est pas une pratique nouvelle, mais prend de l'ampleur depuis quelques années comme sujet à part entière dans les communautés de designers. Cet intérêt soudain créer des attentes et donc un marcher (potentiel) pour les "vendeurs" de cours et de certificats, dont le besoin de simplification d'un sujet particulièrement complexe pousse à des raccourcis grossiers et une codification du discours, appelant à des symboliques & thèmes à la hauteur des vertus avancées: le design systémique permettrait de résoudre les problèmes complexes tels que le changement climatique. Avec Fabrice Liut nous engageons donc une discussion critique autour de l'approche, du discours, et des outils proposés: sont-ils à la hauteur de la promesse. Cette vidéo est donc la première d'une série où nous déconstruisons le design systémique. Elle fait suite de ma critique du design systémique disponible ici: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PknjncsBVcA 🌟Fabrice travail avec des leaders du design & conseil qui souhaitent avoir un impact régénératif sur les entreprises et les projets de leurs clients. | |||
| Virtual Chalet 10 May 2022 – Not confusing goals with intents #becomingbetterdesigners | 18 May 2022 | 01:02:32 | |
The "virtual chalet" is a recurring informal event (once every 2 weeks) for the community to take the space & time to discuss, share ideas & experiences, find support, ask questions, etc. In this session, on our exploration of the theme of “becoming better designers”, we discuss "Goals" (and Jobs to be done) as a way to frame our understanding of a context, people's intents, and how to create useful & valuable solutions for them. Goals are utilitarian but tend to be confused with intents, and might hide the importance of the journey through discovery as tokens of apparent clarity. We also discuss how sense-making practices could enhance the process of coming to a job, not by relying on one individual's perspective. 🌟 Checkout our island map on Miro → https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVOMzFFoY=/?share_link_id=970241385650 Join our next session 👉 https://www.meetup.com/design-critical-thinking/ Join the community on Slack 👉 https://join.designcriticalthinking.com About the community 👉 https://designcriticalthinking.com | |||
| Virtual Chalet 26 April 2022 – Going beyond success and failure #becomingbetterdesigners | 30 Apr 2022 | 01:22:14 | |
The "virtual chalet" is a recurring informal event (once every 2 weeks) for the community to take the space & time to discuss, share ideas & experiences, find support, ask questions, etc. In this session, we continue our exploration of the theme of becoming better designers through the keyword "Failure", and how it conditions our understanding of success (and vice-versa): i.e. a short-term success can be a long-term failure. Moreover, preparing for failure means measuring for it and indirectly creating a fail-safe space, enabling us to discover other opportunities. Therefore, failure is not the goal, it is a means to move beyond an otherwise limiting dichotomy. 🌟 Checkout our island map on Miro → https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVOMzFFoY=/?share_link_id=110023631018 Join our next session 👉 https://www.meetup.com/design-critical-thinking/ Join the community on Slack 👉 https://join.designcriticalthinking.com About the community 👉 https://designcriticalthinking.com | |||
| Virtual Chalet, 12 April 2022 – Being the expert that knows he doesn't know #becomingbetterdesigners | 14 Apr 2022 | 01:16:30 | |
The "virtual chalet" is a recurring informal event (once every 2 weeks) for the community to take the space & time to discuss, share ideas & experiences, find support, ask questions, etc. We continue our journey in exploring the theme of becoming better designers, and the role of designers & design in society, using a keyword as a medium for conversations. This week we're at letter "E", exploring the concept of "Expertise" from various perspectives. We used the island template, a (work in progress) collaborative mapping method that uses topography as a categorisation metaphor to help make sense of a context.

| The Explorer Framework: From Problems To Ecosystems | 01 Oct 2021 | 00:50:47 | |
An invitation to be explorers, not just problem-solvers
We tend to see design and innovation as problem-solving spaces. This engineering and sometimes mechanistic approach is not bad in itself but brings a lot of limitations, one major being to quickly frame whatever challenge into a narrow, finite, solution. When facing uncertainty, designers, and changemakers might feel unempowered. We look for recipes and pre-packaged generalist solutions — “the answer”, that sells an illusion of certainty through the economy of speed — to help us disambiguate our very specific contexts. “Problem-solvers look for answers. Explorers look for better questions.”Exploration makes the invisible visible. This multi-layered understanding will add more potential to our portfolio of possibilities. “Problem-solvers reduce options. Explorers enable possibilities.”New challenges are invitations to become curious explorers, in a world where everything is believed to be known, predictable, ordinary. Reclaim space for curious explorationThe explorer’s framework is a set of ideas for designers, innovators, changemakers, to help approach challenges and problems in ways that add layers (rather than subtract), enable possibilities (rather than reduce), diversify points of view, and enable a portfolio of strategies & actions to tackle (complex) challenges (rather than single-point solutions). Exploration is not to be opposed to conception — it is a useful tension. Exploration should be pursued as a parallel, ongoing, journey with no clear end. It is the philosophy & ethics of the curious, humble, learner. Learn more → explorer.designcriticalthinking.com | |||

| Exploring the topic of “insights" w/ Krasi Bozhinkova, Cameron Norman, Daiana Zavate, Kevin Richard | 18 May 2021 | 01:01:46 | |
This is a “collaborative drawing session” with the Design & Critical Thinking community turned into a podcast –drawing as a medium for exploration. Look at the video here → https://youtu.be/0vk7lh1_iZQ In this session, we explored the concept of “Insight” and our relationship with it by visualizing and building on each other's ideas. Our ability to see through the conditional interpretation of our experience helped us face the loopholes and blind spots of our perception. Insights are volatile and fleeting. They can grow cold if not used at the right time. Our internal alignment can give us both richness of insights and momentum to build concretely on them. This is our shared story at the edge of the visible with the invisible. 🌟The Design & Critical Thinking community 👏 Special thanks to our fantastic members! 👇 Krasi Bozhinkova Cameron Norman Daiana Zavate | |||

| Design, Agilité, et Compréhension Business avec Stéphane Bonnier | 25 Jan 2021 | 01:32:48 | |
Dans cet épisode, nous discutons avec Stéphane Bonnier de design et d’agilité organisationnelle. Stéphane apporte une lumière unique grâce à sa longue expérience dans le business & en tant que chef d’entreprises, et nous donne des clés quand à la facilitation du changement et de la transformation des organisations par le design & l’agilité. 🌟À propos de Stéphane Bonnier: Business Designer, après une formation de base en mathématiques spécialisées, il étudia les sciences cognitives durant 2 ans et devient ensuite titulaire d’un diplôme en économie d’une école de Hautes Etudes Commerciales. Il acquit de l’expérience dans des grands-groupes suisses puis européens et y assuma pour certains d’entre eux la direction pendant plus de 10 ans. Pour Stéphane, les méthodes agiles, c'est comme le débat Bohr-Einstein, tout le monde s'accorde sur les principes de la mécanique quantique mais il est encore aujourd'hui impossible de dire qui a vraiment raison. L'utilisation des méthodes agiles dans les entreprises est reconnue, mais est-ce que leur mise en place est toujours en adéquation avec les structures, les enjeux politiques et les objectifs intrinsèques d'une société ? Depuis 10 ans, Stéphane interagit auprès d'entreprises pour trouver le point d'intersection entre tous les aspects qui font le quotidien d'une entreprise et la réussite des objectifs aussi bien financiers qu'en ressources humaines et stratégie. Le point commun entre sa démarche et celle d'Einstein est que "Dieu ne joue pas aux dés" ! | |||
| Being foxes and tigers: design, philosophy, economics, and politics | 31 Oct 2022 | 02:02:51 | |
This was an unplanned and unmanaged informal discussion like we love to hold in the community. A discussion about foxes and tigers, about perceptions of the world, about philosophies of being and their underlying systems. We also discussed how "design" activities today are made for "transactional" and "value extraction" systems and how this limits their applicability (or can be detrimental) to social and political systems.
