Ruth — of systems & design"Thinking in systems is not the same as designing them. Conflating these destroys both what we seek to understand and what we wish to create."
-- @trondhjort
My* "System Design as *system* *design*" workshop is informed by systems thinking (or thinking in systems, etc.) and by design approaches.
Understanding the systems around our system (imperfectly sure, but not ignoring them!), and how they will impact and be impacted by the system we're evolving. Seeing the system through different lenses and *grappling* with the interactions across boundaries and *across* lenses. Etc. etc.
More folk should join us!
* godde I hate the possessive, especially here, because we really strive for a co-created experience and it integrates so many different threads of systems and design contributions (classic and contemporary)...
Sometimes folk will call it "curated" and then my role in it is obfuscated in that way that should be totally fine but a person needs enough standing to get paid and so the work of the work needs to be recognized... etc... Life is messy... :)
