The lecture will focus on the notion of “transition” and its connotations within various discursive frameworks. Nowadays, the intuition that we live in “transitional times” resonates in both academia, social and environmental movements. Quite recently, this idea has been taken on by the design community as well. The talk will present various articulations of desirable transitional pathways and open up a discussion about their political, economic and philosophical implications.

The lecture took place at the Transition - Design - Education conference in Prague on 6 May 2022.The conference was organized within the project Transition design: A new challenge for service and interaction design education, which was funded by Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway through the EEA Grants 2014- 2021, Education Programme.
