Objects of Desire

Design, Art, and Technology Symposium 2008
University of North Carolina Greensboro


















In A Reflective Conversation on the Transformation of the Triad: An Interdisciplinary Design Workshop, participants were asked to bring in personal objects that could embody area transformation.
















After lively and engaging exchanges, we were challenged to consider all the desires and views associated with those objects as a single object and asked, Where would that object go?











Our group’s conversation represented a common or collective wisdom.

We were asked to consider, What do we value? How do we imagine it? How do we wish to live?
