Designer Aral Balkan is working with ind.ie, an organisation building a platform to protect human rights and democracy in the digital age.
Since last month ind.ie has an ethical design manifest that helps designers and companies building structures that ensure ethical design. “Design your organisations so that your core values are respect for human rights, respect for human effort, and respect for human experience.”, the manifest says.
studio hyperspace totally agrees, although the visualisation of the manifest is not as we would have done it. A pyramid is a hierarchical structure and intrinsically creates some kind of different importances between the three stages.
That said: catch Aral Balkan lecturing somewhere near you. He is a brilliant speaker and has intelligent and necessary things to tell. In the meantime enjoy Balkan talking at the Big Brother Awards in Amsterdam earlier this year.
