<div><font size="+1"><b>Sad by Design</b> by<i> Geert
Lovink</i></font></div>
<div>Sadness is now a design problem. The highs and lows of melancholy
are coded into social media platforms. After all the clicking,
browsing, swiping and liking, all we are left with is the flat and
empty aftermath of time lost to the app. Sad by Design offers a
critical analysis of the growing social media controversies such as
fake news, toxic viral memes and online addiction. The failed search
for a grand design has resulted in depoliticised internet studies
unable to generate either radical critique or a search for
alternatives. Geert Lovink calls for us to embrace the engineered
intimacy of social media, messenger apps and selfies, because boredom
is the first stage of overcoming 'platform nihilism'. Then, after
the haze, we can organise to disrupt the data extraction industries at
their core.</div>

<div><font size="+1"><b>Made in China, Designed in California,
Criticised in Europe</b>.</font></div>
<div>Written by Mieke Gerritzen & Geert Lovink.</div>
<div>When everything is destined to be designed, design disappears
into the everyday. We simply don't see it anymore because it's
everywhere. This is the vanishing act of design. At this moment design
registers its redundancy: our products, environments and services have
been comprehensively improved. Everything has been designed to
perfection and is under a permanent upgrade regime. Within such a
paradigm, design is enmeshed with the capitalist logic of
reproduction. But this does not come without conflicts, struggles and
tensions. Chief among these is the situation of design in a planetary
procession toward decay. Our dispense culture prompts a yearning for
longevity. The computational compulsion to delete brings alive a
desire to retrieve objects, ideas and experiences that refuse
obsolescence. Society is growing more aware of sustainability and
alert to the depletion of this world. For the ambitious designer,
it's time to take the next step: designing the future as a collective
relation attuned to life.</div>
