GUDA+IDEAS(R) - Slow Design Thinking

From an early age, we have created the routine for our Mariana to express herself through imagery, providing materials, supports, instruments, but essentially "creating" specific moments: experiences with paints conducted by the "babysitter" (she an artist too) to "kill time and the homesickness of the Parents"; vacation graphic diary (one drawing per day exploring different materials); learning the numbers by making cutting and gluing of materials, for example... More recently learning to write the name that quickly in his imagination happened to be the "signature" of the works and the sender of the "letters" that "writes" to parents, grandparents, friends, finally to everyone who likes...   In common all the exercises, it is a simple concern to make our daughter understand the purpose of the exercise more than the rules she must follow, that is, to give her a stimulus of ignition to the imagination, accompanying

3 INTENSIVE working days - URBiNAT CONSORTIUM meeting. Guda facilitating 9 Internal participatory workshops as well as 1 citizens participatory working Friday!

THE LAST TWO WEEKS The last two weeks were very special!  Susana and me have been has invited guest speakers at the Metropolia University international Design week, in Helsinki Finland. We presented Susana’s research on “Inverse future” - connecting Speculative and Critical Design to create today’s design interventions and actions. We visit and had a very nice meeting in Aalto University Helsinki with the Research & Innovation services to prepaid possible agreement on sharing research themes, models and projects considering the new Ph.D in Design & Innovation program (under FCT accreditation at the moment). I have run another International Business School for Karel de Grote University in Antwerp, innovation opportunies intensive course, were students from different parts of the world emerge in the Slow Design Thinking approach to change their mindset and attitude towards learning and becoming entrepreneurs of the future. During this (more) academic period GUDA deli

The future of education as a centralised challenge in the Design process is not done with repetition of formulas, nor is it done with pre-defined card games! The construction and ideation of scenarios on the future of Education can be build with systemic tools that ignite a debate of knowledges, experiences that are wanted, based on: transdisciplinary, multi-generational, multi-cultural and without borders between what are "space of teaching and community space "approach. The new design model we built at DELLI Research Haus - DELLI Design Metasystem, involves the investment of our time and know-how in the construction of new tools that aim, in the initial phase of the Design process for innovation, debating and understanding each of the sub-systems that interact in the ecosystem dynamics regarding the "SUM OF THE PARTS". The effort of the DELLI Metasystem transdisciplinary team is to "design" the workshops and "conceive" personalized dynam
