We live in a continuous state of “Manufactured normalcy”

CONCEPTUAL VALIUM
BORNFUTURISING ORGANISATIONS
AT THE EDGE OF NOW
Design traditionally uses comfortable branded metaphors
for innovation.
A kind of social hypnosis.
Like a mask over subjective experiences
of the strange and unusual.
Keeping us in a “Golden cage”
of the known and familiar.
JAMMING THE
NORMALITY FIELD
So how do we interrupt this state hypnosis?
Design for the New Normal shouldcut through “Orthodox narratives” by creating experience that offers
a “digestible strange now”
