Resistance & Sensibility

By practice our tools, we hope designers would start to recognize and respect the existed relationships/connections between them and their surroundings while keeping accumulate more diverse relationships/connections by acknowledging the interdependence that happens around them.

Through this activity, we hope designers could get a chance to train their sensibility of seeing and feeling their surroundings, and therefore visualizing the Invisibles.

"... Objects of use are therefore mediations (media) between myself and other people, not just objects. They are not just objective but inter-subjective as well, not just problematic but dialogic as well. The question about creating things can also be formulated in this way: Can I give form to my projected designs in such a way that the communicative, the inter-subjective, the dialogic are more strongly emphasized than the objective, the substantial and the problematic?"
