Description
Hardcover: 176 pages Medium Design Knowing How to Work on the World by Keller Easterling offers a fresh perspective on design and its role in shaping our world. By focusing on the medium - the space between objects, events, and ideological declarations - Easterling challenges traditional approaches to complex issues such as climate change and inequality. In this book, design is not about finding solutions, but rather about creating productive combinations of existing and emerging technologies. The author draws on a range of case studies to illustrate this approach, from automation and migration to urban growth and environmental changes. By exploring the relationships between different elements, medium design aims to outwit political deadlocks and offer new forms of activism for modulating power and temperament in organizations. Through its exploration of design and its role in shaping our world, Medium Design Knowing How to Work on the World encourages readers to think differently about the problems we face.
