Design & Critical Thinking

In this session, we have a really interesting informal discussion, what Marc called "improv session" and Krasi called "emergent discussion".  We discuss:  00:00 good enough data for decision-making.  14:42 how organisational dispositionalities can prevent innovation even when people are motivated.  31:00 Past, future. Future, past.  44:00 Anchoring the digital in physical to allow for repurposing.   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.   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/about/

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.

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

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

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.   Find out more about the island here → https://explorer.designcriticalthinking.com/  Discover what we mapped out in full detail here → https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVOMzFFoY=/?share_link_id=481680795197  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

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 "data", and what it means (or not) to be "data-driven". We clarified the different kinds of data (explicit, implicit, qualitative, quantitative) and the importance of context to make sense of them. We also discussed the ethics of using data, how they are collected, and to what end.

Virtual Chalet, 15 February 2022 – 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 used a keyword as a catalyst to approach the broader topic of the role of designers in society, and the question “how could we become better designers?” which will be a running theme for the coming sessions & workshops.

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.   **Sorry for the audio quality, my internet connection was pretty unstable** This week we discuss design in regards to groups and social dynamics, the role of language as affordance & constraints, the Squid Game as a catalyst, medium for interactions, and an attractor for diverging narratives around personal debts & financial insecurity, and the different layers of design. We also discuss bayesian thinking and using a probabilistic approach to design & innovation.   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  —————————  Learn more about the participants of today's discussion: John Mortimer → https://www.improconsult.co.uk/  Cameron Norman → https://www.cense.ca/  Marc Baumgartner → https://codename.design/  Daiana Zavate → https://owtcome.com/
