A Pattern Language of Sustainability - 0 views

  •  
    The aim of this work is a cross-disciplinary integration of ideas specifically relevant to permaculture design and the physical structure of human settlements. Although this work is ambitious in scope, I feel this is an important element of the writing, to present an overview such that the reader is able to see the inter-relations of many ideas relevant to design. This is a synthesis of a kind which I believe has so far not been attempted.

Interesting article on the The Aboriginal concept of time - 1 views

  •  
    An intresting passage from the articel that reminds me also of the permaculture zones: Some cultures do not perceive time as an exclusively linear phenomenon and their time calendars consist of multiple and simultaneously existing time categories such as 'practical time', 'social time', 'religious time', 'dream time', etc. Many Indigenous people and a number of non- Indigenous cultures do not perceive time as linear and describe it as having a 'circular' or 'cyclic' form. According to such a conceptualisation of time, time is perceived as 'static' and the individual person is 'in the centre of time' (i.e. surrounded by concentric 'time circles'). Life events are placed in time along and across the 'time circles' according to their relative importance to the individual and his or her respective community (i.e. more important events are placed closer to the individual and are perceived as being closer in time; unimportant or irrelevant events occupy peripheral time circles, although some of them could have happened very recently according to linear or 'practical' concept time).

lega4e80b3753ccac-knowledge translation - a quest for understanding.doc - 1 views

  •  
    In contrast to 'Eurocentric' or mainstream knowledge which typically relies on scientific theories and empirical substantiation as evidence of reality, Indigenous knowledge systems usually begin with stories derived from practical experiences. Stories integrate the values and processes experienced, which then culminate in wisdom. Individuals develop wisdom over time, through their own experiences and through the stories of others, which they then share through the creation of new stories (Smylie et al, 2003; Cruickshank, 1998).

  •  
    Beginning in 1948, a group of educators undertook the task of classifying education goals and objectives.  The intent was to develop a classification system for three domains: the cognitive, the affective, and the psychomotor.  Work on the cognitive domain was completed in the 1950s and is commonly referred to as Bloom's Taxonomy of the Cognitive Domain

    I lead a diverse variety of workshops and other offerings - and not just about challenging corporate rule. I also have many decades of experience leading workshops which help people come to terms with their difficult feelings about the current state of our world, from despair and rage to grief and numbness.

Lean Startup - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  •  
    "Lean Startup" is an approach for launching businesses and products, that relies on validated learning, scientific experimentation, and iterative product releases to shorten product development cycles, measure progress, and gain valuable customer feedback. In this way, companies, especially startups, can design their products or services to meet the demands of their customer base without requiring large amounts of initial funding or expensive product launches.

Kitchen Of The Future, Methane digestor, Mycelium to Decompose Plastic Waste - 1 views

  •  
    Have been drawing allot of inspiration from this one! Particularly love the idea of a cutting board that leads foods scraps into a methane digester. Definitely need a better kitchen composting system that is easy and effective for the modern kitchen design. Perhaps for people who are living in cities or tight areas and do not have land to use the compost effectively.

Design as Learning-or "Knowledge Creation"-the SECI Model - 1 views

  •  
    Designers often speak of design as a process. Typically, design thinking leads to design making, which leads to artifacts. Yet the design process also leads to something more-to new knowledge. Thus, we might characterize designing as a form of learning
