Spectres: Outlining the fragments of a future to come
George Panicker
This piece presents the voice of a design graduate. It raises questions about why design means what it does today. The most important question here is the question of the future. What it holds and how design will respond to it. As we paint a picture for design to enter schools, the piece creates awareness about the mutating nature of the discipline and how we need to be wary of it. The piece creates an urgency to equip ourselves with the changing definitions of design, especially as technology is evolving and the value that design has to offer is evolving with it.
