- 2. Hi Ricardo, We have been invited by NJC to give the talk on Design Thinking during the Singapore International Science Challenge. The session will be on 4 July 2013 from 10am to 11am. I am wondering if you will do the honour of giving this talk to the students?
- 4. buzz·word (ˈbʌzˌwɜrd) n. “a word or phrase, often sounding authoritative or technical, that has come into vogue in popular culture or a particular profession”

- 17. http://www.designsingapore.org/Files/Dsg_II_Strategic_Blueprint.pdf “… this rate of change will need to be matched with mindset and paradigm changes in order for us to maintain our ability to innovate, and to create new value. It is no longer business as usual. We are already facing increasing global competition in the new ideas-driven creative economy… Design must become the critical strategic tool for futureproofing Singapore from the uncertainties of the future.”
- 19. Ok, it is important, but what is design?
- 20. Bruce Archer (1960s) “The practice of design is a very complicated business, involving contrasting skills and a wide field of disciplines. It has always required an odd kind of hybrid to carry it successfully” Engineer, Professor of Design Research at the Royal College of Art Bruce Nussbaum (2010s) “Design Thinking is beginning to ossify and actually do harm, in order to appeal to the business culture of process, it was denuded of the mess, the conflict, failure, emotions, and looping circularity that is part and parcel of the creative process” Economist, Professor of Innovation and Design at Parsons The New School for Design
- 21. How to understand and excel in something that experts refer to: “complicated, odd, mess, conflict, failure, emotions, looping circularity”?
- 23. My goal here today is simple: To get you (more) interested in design, creativity and innovation (And I will attempt to do this without eye-candy)
- 25. The opportunity is huge
- 27. You can compare with other countries/cities/keywords Or define more specific targets…
- 29. Ok, what about more concrete evidence, such as an analysis of the contents of one million books published in the last one-hundred years?
