Circling the Diamond - imagining sustainable design thinking (hosted by Alastair Somerville)
Circling the Diamond - imagining sustainable design thinking (hosted by Alastair Somerville)
April 14, 2021 12:00 pm - 12:45 pm
Drawing from accessible design work, Post Normal design is founded on the need to recognise the bias of Normal to the needs of WEIRD (White, Educated, Industrialised, Rich, Democratic) people and to build new ways of working that are not anchored to Normal. One aspect is the Circular Knowledge Economy. This takes the consumerist Design Thinking model of product design and integrates Doughnut Economic ideas of circling knowledge development back in a regenerative manner. This session describes a simple design economics model of Circular Knowledge Economies based on ideas of Things Made and Things Unmade. How can we imagine sustainable models of Design Thinking that are not trapped by consumerism? Let’s spend time talking about circling the double diamond.

Mapping the Territory: The visual fields of Economics and Design (hosted by John V Willshire)
April 14, 2021 4:00 pm - 4:45 pm

Part of the Design and Economics unconference running 8th-22nd April 2021 (see https://designandeconomics.com for more).
As somebody who wound up doing Economics and Econometrics at University, and then fell into various other practices over time (research, strategy, design, futures... etc), I have always reflected on what it was that Economic taught me that proved useful in these more adjacent fields.
This session will use a Miro Board as a map, wandering around and making connections between the knowledge and practices which people will generally pick up in economics degree, and how those relate to other 'visual fields'. From representations to simulations, assumptions to ideologies, modelling to wondering, it's a session that promises no answers and lots of questions about the questions.
But then this is Economics, and it was ever thus...

Questioning just and equitable resource access in circular economies (hosted by Isaac Ortega Alvarado)
Questioning just and equitable resource access in circular economies (hosted by Isaac Ortega Alvarado)
April 16, 2021 3:00 pm - 3:45 pm
Online
The circular economy (CE) is a buzzword, presented as a set of approaches to minimize the negative impacts of resource exploitation —in extraction and waste. However, little is said about the distribution and access of resources in a CE, or better said economical aspect of it. Stahel (2019) proposes a circular industrial economy based on services for abundance, where scarcity is eliminated by maintaining stocks of material resources in a high value (products) or in low value forms (molecules) within the economy (exchange system). The role of maintaining the value is given to firms that own the stocks and provide access to users through fee-based schemes (commercial services). The Ellen MacArthur foundation, as a forerunner of a certain CE, has supported their claims on the opportunities for profit maximization through value capture in services. Several authors have already criticized these claims as they could lead to inequalities in access. CE has easily entered the discourse in design, as a technical and apolitical approach to materials, where it is rarely questioned. In this session, I want to discuss with others about CE as more than profit maximization opportunities (or value capture), on its implications for equitable and just resource access and distribution, particularly the implications for designers. Drop in and bring your position about CE.
Some generative questions: 1. What does a CE imply for equitable and just access to resources? 2. What are the social benefits of a CE? Who gets them? 3. What role would design, and designers play in different CEs? 4. What is to be negotiated and what should be put forward by designers? Reference Stahel, W. R. (2019). The circular economy: A user's guide. Routledge.

Design Education + Economics (hosted by Elise Hodson)
Design Education + Economics (hosted by Elise Hodson)
April 22, 2021 9:00 am - 9:45 am
Online
This session looks at the potential for economics to be incorporated in design education. Based on our experiences as designers, researchers, educators and students, we will discuss questions such as: How is economics currently reflected in design education, if at all? What subjects and skills related to economics are important for design students to learn? What would the economics-savvy design graduate of the future look like? What super powers would they have? Participants are welcome to contribute new questions and help us answer them.
We are based in the Department of Design at Aalto University, Finland. Elise Hodson is a post-doctoral researcher in design economies and formerly chair of a design school in Canada. Delphine Rumo recently defended her thesis in the Creative Sustainability master’s program and is interested in degrowth and healthy circular economies. André Helgestad is a student in the Creative Sustainability master’s program in design. He has a background in economics and is a founding member of Rethinking Economics in Finland.
