He advocates for the importance of dialectical reasoning, which he believes has been overlooked in favor of pure logic. Schopenhauer also explores the divide between our conscious intellect and our underlying will. This classic text ...

A collection of transdisciplinary essays by scholars and designers which explore humanity’s relationship with the planet, its ecosystems and inhabitants, now and in the future. Global challenges like climate change and ecosystem degradation are proving that a singular disciplinary approach is inadequate to respond to issues where societal behaviours, individual choices, political decisions, economic, technological and scientific developments are so densely entangled - not least in design. But what happens when we turn things around and decentre “the human” to look at our relationship with...
