Philippe Starck seemed to want to emphasize to the designers that they need to design for everyone and not just a specific group of consumers.

There was an error in this gadget. Tuesday, March 9, 2010. Task 2 - Reflection on the documentary Objectified by Gary Hustwit.

The Documentary was an eye opener.

In the end, she has just told us that we are pretty much drones being controlled subconsciously to do what ever makes the cycle better for the corporations. We don't buy because we need new stuff, we buy because we are being made fun of, because we won't fit into society. Thursday, September 4, 2008.
