Clive van Heerden on why design must ask more difficult questions of technology
I Am Not a Designer/Recorded 2012
A close reading, kept within reach.
Clive van Heerden takes design thinking as a lens on the larger question the festival keeps returning to: what design owes to the people and places it works among. The talk moves from specific projects toward a broader argument about practice.
Recorded in United Kingdom in 2012, the conversation is grounded in Clive's own working method — the compromises, the constraints, and the moments where the work taught them something they didn't expect.
The closing turn is characteristic of the archive: less a conclusion than a provocation, handed to the audience to carry into their own disciplines.
Clive van Heerden believes that by asking really stupid questions you can produce really interesting results.
