DRS Good new article from the NYT. >> http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2016/01/11/when-philosophy-lost-its-way/?action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=opinion-c-col-right-region®ion=opinion-c-col-right-region&WT.nav=opinion-c-col-right-region&_r=0 <http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2016/01/11/when-philosophy-lost-its-way/?action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=opinion-c-col-right-region®ion=opinion-c-col-right-region&WT.nav=opinion-c-col-right-region&_r=0> When the term ‘philosophy’ is replaced by the term ‘design’ in this article, a similar story (not a literal mapping one to one of events but similar in plot) of what is happening to academic design as it is being scientized by academics and practitioners emerges—e.g. design science, design research etc. Hopefully design will not be sidelined from the real world in the way that academic philosophy has been sidelined in this cautionary tale. It has too much to offer and is too valuable to be lost.
