RSD6 Symposium Proceedings
The RSD6 symposium was held at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design (AHO), Oslo, Norway, October 18-20, 2017. Following two years in Canada, RSD returned to its home location for the RSD6 Symposium. This demarcated that the startup period for the systemic design movement is over and that we can move towards new phases of development.
Introduction to the Proceedings of RSD8—Environment, Economy, Democracy: Flourishing Together
RSD6 Chair & Editor, Birger Sevaldson: The Flourishing Together theme encompassed the contexts for flourishing in democratic societies and explored the opportunities for systemic design.
Flourishing Lives in Another World
RSD6 Keynote. John Ehrenfeld: The modernist bundle of beliefs and norms, which has powered Western societies for centuries, has begun to misfire badly in both the human and natural domains. “Sustainability” is not the answer.
Dialectic and Inquiry in Design: Understanding surroundings and systems, designing environments
RSD6 Keynote. Richard Buchanan: The intersection of dialectic and inquiry is fertile ground for exploring new dimensions of design practice and theory in the complexity of contemporary life.
The imprints of the fisheries on land – the dynamics and adaptions of a Norwegian fishing village
RSD6 Keynote. Karl Otto Ellefsen: Myre is a fishing village in the Northern part of Norway, that I have followed for 50 years, and investigated by discussing transforming morphologies.
Rights to Ground: Human and Non-human Rights Integrated Design and Embedded Architectures
RSD6 Keynote. Michael Hensel: One of the most basic questions remains relatively unaddressed, namely the right to ground.
Systemic Design Approaches in the Public Sector: Are we ready?
RSD6 Keynote. Sabine Junginger: So overwhelming is the intricate web of laws, rules, and regulations in a highly hierarchical and political landscape that those working under intense time pressure rarely get time to reflect on their design approaches.
From Transformation Design to Translation Design
RSD6 Keynote. Lucy Kimbell: This talk explores the issues arising when contemporary designerly approaches attempt to address systemic challenges.
In memory of MP Ranjan: The NID approach to Systemic Design
Pravin Nahar: The educational framework for systems design is reflective, evolving, transdisciplinary, and occurs at various levels.
A people-centred strategy for innovation and participation – benefiting society, business and the individual
Onny Eikhaug: The Norwegian model of social governance … goes beyond the provision of basic needs to protect human rights, focusing on social and democratic ambitions.
Teaching for democracy in a holistic perspective
Tom Vavik: Teaching the concept of Universal Design (UD) to design students has developed over the last decade.
Design Beyond Design
Kees Dorst: Could there be something in the very nature of design practices that limits Design’s ability to deal with these very complex systems?
Cybernetics, virtue ethics and design
Ben Sweeting: Cybernetics and virtue ethics have had little if any explicit exchange. There are a number of areas in which they may contribute to or provide useful critiques of each other.
The Visual Representation of Complex Systems: A Typology of Visual Codes for Systemic Relations
Joanna Boehnert: This research addresses the need for more effective visual representations of the key features of complexity.
