Pre-pandemic thoughts on the graduate show for @DisegnoJournal ✨✨✨

[Disegno @DisegnoJournal]

"A particularly significant part of the design industry's well-oiled newness machine lies within the format of the graduate show."

From #Disegno25, @verasacchetti charts the evolution of the graduate show and interrogates its role in design.

Today is the 25th of April, anniversary of Portugal's Carnation Revolution.

Given our global context, it's a good moment to remember what it was like to live under four decades of authoritarian rule and to celebrate the people who fought to restore democracy 48 years ago... 🧵

The Ukrainian resistance is just the latest example of the new attitudes and abilities of 21st century citizens. From crowdsourced community organizing to DIY weapons, ordinary people are waging a new kind of war. My essay in @ThePublicSquare https://t.co/Qtu1MiTSqZ @NCoC

⚡️Switzerland adopts EU sanctions, freezes Putin's assets.

Switzerland broke its historically neutral status to adopt EU sanctions against Russia over its war on Ukraine.

[Kaitlan Collins @kaitlancollins]

Switzerland will forgo its commitment to neutrality & impose sanctions on Russia, Swiss Federal President Ignazio Cassis says, calling Russia's actions an "attack on freedom, an attack on democracy, an attack on the civil population & an attack on institutions of a free country."

Deliberative democracy at the local level in Lisbon! Great to see Cc @ClaudiaChwalisz

[Mário Rui André @mruiandre]

Lisboa vai ter uma assembleia de cidadãos, o que permitirá, pelo menos em teoria, aproximar as pessoas da política e decidirmos a cidade em conjunto.
