Dear Terry
I am not at all surprised by the advanced understanding of design and the
nature of the design problems since he was in a very interesting place
during the late 50s, The HfG Ulm, in Germany, as a member of the faculty
there. Klaus Krippendorff was a student then and the other faculty were in
my view giants of design understanding and in particular in design
education and practice, far ahead on many other schools of thought. This is
captured in the 21 Journals published between October 1958 and February
1968 which helped change the world of design education in a way that
Bauhaus could not do. The visiting faculty at Ulm included Bruce Archer,
Charles and Ray Eames, besides the core faculty of Tomas Maldonado, Gui
Bonsiepe, Herbert Ohl, Abraham Moles and Hans Gugelot to name only a few
stalwarts of the time.
Thank you Nigan for sharing the papers.
I case anyone is interested in the Ulm Journals, Ulm 1 to Ulm 21, the set
can be downloaded from my Academia.edu web archive under the Look Back Look
Forward conference proceedings CD ROM that is available there.
