University Oath

I propose that Aalto University should stand for …..an unconditional respect for life, and for the conditions that support life. (via)

John Thackara proposes a new kind of oath for the forthcoming Aalto University based on a viewpoint that we are part of the Earths’ biological system not apart from it, and that the whole understanding of our development should shift to being sustainable in a wider sense. Read his excellent article fully to get an idea that what John means and how design and learning should contribute to more resilient and adaptive systems.

    I’ve been on holiday, and infact for a couple of weeks away from the internet. But I’m back and normal service should resume pretty soon.
