Title:

Design for Disagreement

Your vote:
Level:
Beginner
Type:
Panel
Category:
Business / Entrepreneurial
Organizer:
Paul Burke, thinktiv
Description:
Increasingly, the problems the design community is being engaged to solve are compounding in complexity. What used to be something one person could solve alone now requires participation by a group of complementary collaborators. With such problems, the ways in which individuals solve problems has become less useful than understanding the ways a collaborative team solves a problem. The value of Design for today and tomorrow lies with understanding and employing collaborative problem solving—including the methods that enable a fluid design process, the practice of rapid creation, and the value of disagreement in solving complex problems.

could be good if it's a concrete discussion, could be poor if it's all general and philosophical. Here's a vote for specificity.

The challenge is that philosophical is the essence of what makes up this stuff. Specificity is what kills complexity. Perhaps Nabeel, this is not a topic you're up to.

Would assume the topic of 'creative dissonance' will be included.
Do it today!
