When we think of a designer’s toolkit, a vision of pens, pencils, markers, post-it’s, or software might come to mind. But there’s more to design than just putting pen to paper, or pixels on a screen. There are tools that help designers structure their thinking, create focus, or break free of their biases or constraints of their prior personal experience. These are the kinds of tools we’re going to talk about today. Well, not just t...

When we think of creativity, it's natural to define it through the lens of the specific craft we directly relate to. I'm a designer and musician, both professionally and personally. And even though I associate myself with both, it has taken me a long time to embrace my music background as a tool in my design work. Our conversation today explores the convergence of music, technology, and design in process, methodology, and the creat...

There is something that drives great artists in a direction that they can call their own. It's a niche that somehow draws the person experiencing the art into an emotional state in very specific and personal ways. But very few artists have taken this gift and applied it to create things greater than the art itself. That's what our guest, Derek Hess, has done. Derek is a prolific artist that has played in a key role in building move...

Throughout the history of civilization, we have seen an ever-increasing need and ability to create, store, and share information. But as our ability to access information grows exponentially, are we as designers, focusing too narrowly on the short-term; designing, developing, and shipping product based on the information and technology available to us today and ignoring what the future might have in store for us? In this episode, K...

Complexity is all around us. From our social systems to the products and services we create, complexity lurks beneath what might seem to be the most simple solutions. If we ignore it, the consequences might haunt us long into the future in ways we didn't foresee. But if we approach complexity more systematically, we can better understand the potential impact of design decisions further up- and downstream. In the second in our two-...

Collaboration is a critical element of design. It facilitates the cross-pollination of ideas, concepts, and diverse perspectives. What happens when collaboration in a physical, face-to-face sense becomes at best much more difficult and at worst, explicitly outlawed? If this was some time in the not-so-distant past, we would brush this off as science fiction. But the pandemic of 2020 made it a reality. In this episode, Jim Kalbach, ...
