“I can’t enter into politico-social subjects with any interest, for on the whole I see that things are in a muddle, and I have no power or vocation to set them right in ever so little a degree. My work is the embodiment of dreams in one form or another…” – William Morris in 1856

@b0ysfirm (2023)[From What Design Can't Do: "According to artist Brad Troemel, 'raising awareness is ultimately the process of making people aware of the conversation that needs to be had.'"]

"Rather than designing products for conventional manufacturers that could only fail to live up to his intentions, he chose to work mainly on pieces of design that questioned and challenged, but which did not always seek to offer practical answers."

'Robson has suggested Ideo focus on two areas of growth: “emerging tech” and the “Global South.” Both seem like keen areas to invest. AI is rapidly reshaping business, and one out of four people on the planet will be African by 2050.'https://www.fastcompany.com/90976682/design-giant-ideo-cuts-a-third-of-staff-and-closes-offices-as-the-era-of-design-thinking-ends

"The radicality of our project [...] was the rejection of the system of society as it was imposed on us. Rejection that was expressed in at least three ways: 1 - self-castration, that is, not designing for a society we did not approve of; 2 - utopia: designing for another society [...]; 3 - critical design as a means of critiquing a society we did not accept [...]." – Ugo La Pietra, 2012-17

"You may very well appropriately want to ask me how we are going to resolve the ever-accelerating dangerous impasse of world-opposed politicians and ideological dogmas. I answer, it will be resolved by the computer." – Buckminster Fuller

Not an episode of a Science Fiction show.(Science Fiction shows are called — surprise! — Science Fiction shows, not Design Fictions.)Design Fictions are materialized hold-in-your-hand objects that represent the implications of a world from which they have come." – Julian Bleecker (2023)https://backoffice.nearfuturelaboratory.com/blog/2024/01/what-design-fiction-is-not/#design #film

"Just over 1 in 10 in the creative industries are aged 45+, which has remained the same for the last three years. This lack of representation brings into question the long-term prospective of creative careers, especially if an individual chooses to take a career break. Almost half of those aged 45+ work within just two sectors within the creative industries, with 43% in Creative, Design & Studio and a further 14% within Marketing, PR, and Communications." – 2023 UK Creative Industries Census#design

“I began to realize, as well, that the intelligent and sensitive people in my environment had experiences with nonart portions of their visual world that were of such quality and consistency that the demarcation of similar experiences as art would make no appreciable difference; that perhaps mankind was beginning to outgrow the need for art on that level; that he was beginning to deal with his world aesthetically” – Joseph Kosuth, 2003#design #art #aesthetics

“Contemporary theorists have overcorrected what they frame as the impersonal abstraction, masculinist reserve, and rationalist systematicity of capital-T theory, offering in its place obscene confessionalism, pseudo-lyrical fragmentation, flowing immanence, and tautological haecceity.” – Anna Kornbluh, 2024https://www.e-flux.com/notes/589060/against-anti-theory#theory

"Design will have to play a role in establishing the value proposition for criticality that customers will want, things that are considered from an ethics standpoint, from a fairness standpoint. You can see it like when you buy products: sometimes you're like, oh, I'll pay a little more because that has a better ethics." – John Maeda, 2024*From ornamental politics to ethics cosmetics* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zFOSQDpby8#design

"To refer to the political character of any design activity is not to refer to echoing pomposity and ambitious revolutionary declarations. Certainly, revolutions are not made with objects and, in this regard, least of all with "designed" objects." – Gui Bonsiepe, 1977
