The Design Frameworks for Health Facilities paper was presented at the Collaborative Innovation Networks Conference, hosted by the Savannah College of Art & Design in Savannah, Georgia October 2010.    

Design Frameworks is an innovative online tool to gather resources from a cross-disciplinary field of problem solvers.

The tool is a model for professionals to inform their creative problem solving of systemic events in social, economic and environmental complexity.

Design Frameworks was developed by Alan Ricks and Michael P. Murphy Jr., Executive Director, MASS Design Group.

Seeking the Medici Effect: Design Ethos 2010 and COINs 2010 Conferences

ETHICOINOS


Two conferences in the same town at the same time with opportunities to create meaningful intersections between them: COINS and ETHOS evolved as unique gatherings that bumped into each other, and now we've made it easy for attendants of each conference to bump into one another. What does this mean? We've coordinated the schedules so that individuals from one conference can attend the keynote speakers from the other conference without paying extra cost, and without having to miss anything from their own conference. What else does it mean? Some of our networking events will have overlaps so that attendees from one conference can mingle with attendees from the other.

 

Learn how creating instances of serendipity, exploring intersections, and innovation connect in the Medici Effect - described in this introduction, "Where groundbreaking ideas come from."

Be sure to check out the COINs 2010 Conference web site - an online destination gathering, connecting, and collaborating at the intersections of science, design, and technology.

COINs 2009: Reflections on the first-ever conference on Collaborative Innovation Networks - Core77

Media_https3filescore77comblogimagescoinscon094jpg_imqkxmazfciackr

A really excellent article by Dustin Larimer about the October COINs conference at the Savannah College of Art & Design. Including perspectives from Peter Gloor, Research Scientist, MIT; designer Christian Madsbjerg of Red Associates; Jon Campbell and Beth Johnson from Continuum; and SCAD Industrial Design student Austin Brown. Swarm Creativity and the emerging Science of Collaboration are fundmental to strengthening creativity and collaboration in open networked systems.

"We are a collaborative species. No single perspective could possibly cover every aspect of an issue, but together through the collage of our collective experience we wage war on the challenges of our reality. This is collective intelligence, an emergent characteristic of life that we see in many other social species like honeybees, ants, and migratory birds. At every level of complexity an individual's best efforts could never compare to the magnitude of the seemingly intelligent behavior of the swarm."
