Hi GK
("Jude" would do - occam's razor)
This is very interesting - I don't intend to contribute, but the insinuations in your email excite me (positively).
I wonder if others on this list might have anything to say.

Subject: Re: The OTHER Design Thinking / Call For Participants
Hello Mr CHUA Soo Meng Jude: The current invitation is to practitioners with at least 5 years practice experience operating beyond product, service and or experience design presumptions as outlined inside The OTHER Design Thinking presentation that was made at the Toronto Conference. See "10 Ways Its Different from Mainstream Design Thinking" pages 77 to 99.
To keep it simple: If you are beginning projects with the downstream presumption that products, services or experiences will be outcomes then this is not a cup of tea for you.
In case you are wondering: Yes it has become quite clear to many that the era of assuming that all wicked social problems can be solved by creating more products and services is over.
Many graduate and post graduate design programs continue to be faced in that direction, still teaching cross-over era dynamics. We are not and never have been.
We are looking for and inviting practice variations geared towards The OTHER Design Thinking.
Hope this helps.
