And I attended Prof. William Lim’s lecture “Towards a Design Culture of Creativity and Criticality” last week.
Beyond his rhetoric about the move away from the capitalist structure, Euro-modernism and Eurocentric modes of thought, I ponder over his machinistic dissection of the topic creativity, with deadpan tape recitation and linear powerpoint slides (cue the clicks). Perhaps the only vestige of creativity is in the wacky
typographical
presentation notes.
And then I spotted Sir Ken Robinson on TED Talks and I was hooked. It’s almost antithetical. So much for the university professor… Do watch this!
is seeking inspiration too….
