“”
I'm very struck, not just by tinkering,
but by the architectural studio.
…In the studio, a very interesting thing happens–all work in progress is made public…
When the product [the design] is ﬁnally ﬁnished… in comes the master to critique this
person next to me. Well, I overhear what that person is saying… So there is a kind of
very interesting distributed learning environment…One of the things you learn in an
architectural studio is you learn to accept criticism [from your peers, from the master]…
accept that, to appreciate that, and to learn from that...

And that is one of the key platforms
that you want for lifelong learning.

In times of change, learners
inherit the earth, while the
learned ﬁnd themselves beautifully
equipped to deal with a world that
no longer exists.

― Eric Hoffer


“”
Now we all need to focus on the
many, many ways technology
can lead us back to our real
lives, our own bodies, our own
communities, our own politics,
our own planet. They need us.
Let's talk about how we can use
digital technology, the
technology of our dreams, to
make this life the life we can
love.
