@aansari8619 I’ve been craving something along these lines too. There’s a part of me that wishes it could be crowd-funded

[Andrew Whitcomb @AjwDzn]

Gonna start a research project about the economics of higher-ed design (e.g salaries, research/project funding, industry partnerships, etc.) Trying to understand constraints that limit imagination of alternative models...

@drstefdirusso Ohh reminds me of Benjamin Bratton’s description of them: “middlebrow megachurch infotainment”

@drstefdirusso Nice work as always! After dwelling on this for a bit, I’m wondering about ceilings. At risk of stretching the metaphor too far...maybe the problem is the “building” we’re in? Rather than climb the existing, what if we make a new one? Or tear apart the old and renovate?

[Andrew Whitcomb @AjwDzn]

@georgeaye Amazing start and thanks for sharing the syllabus! A few that have been on my mind: What does it feel like to navigate difference in design? What does responsible design look like in day-to-day practice? What are the ultimate ends we’re trying to achieve?

[Andrew Whitcomb @AjwDzn]

@silvanajuri Perhaps rather literal, but have you come across this one? https://t.co/wM0FqILkOX

@marcsteen Sounds pretty Deweyian to me, no? Looks like it’s worth checking out!

@ManuelaAguirreU Hope it helps! Enjoy the journey :)

@ManuelaAguirreU This article is a good intro to Agger Eriksson’s work - https://t.co/OuY9agJdle, but you might also like her dissertation: https://t.co/OuY9agJdle

@ManuelaAguirreU Sure thing! The initial Buur & Matthews article is here: https://t.co/ijTK4OHw6I, but there’s now a conference as well - https://t.co/38dRb9t7Y1

[Andrew Whitcomb @AjwDzn]

@ManuelaAguirreU Just came across your article, cool stuff! Curious if you’re familiar with work on participatory innovation by Buur and Matthews (and others)? Also the work of Agger Eriksen could be the relevant if you haven’t come across it :)

Coincidence that topics of ethics and economics on the rise in design? Next step: tying them together in practice. https://t.co/Bxohy86shC.
