Goldsmiths, University of London, 18th October, 2011
Anette delivered a workshop and talk for the seminar series: Methods & Processes for all the design students across the Master programmes at Goldsmiths. Together with Hannah Jones, programme leader for MA Design Futures at Goldsmiths the students got to explore the life cycle of a selection of everyday objects in a tactile and qualitative way as well as get an overview of how sustainability informs new visions, strategies and frameworks for design. This sparked some interesting debates on some of the paradoxes and contradictions many products such as: a Patagonia fleece jacket, a wooden stapler or a Guerlain powder refill container may pose, and what more it offered opportunities to rethink about use and adequate lifespan of products.

In February 2011 Anette designed and facilitated two workshops for the development of MA Creative Leadership for the School of Psychotherapy & Counselling Psychology and Regent’s Business School at Regent’s College London.

The mission was to seek out commonalities and language from a trans-disciplinary team of specialists in psychology, business, management, mediation, psychotherapy and as well as theatre and the arts, design, international relations and politics and to generate ownership, partnerships and a holistic understanding of the programme.

Oslo National Art Academy, Oslo, 18-20 October, 2011
This year the Master students were asked to take their new campus as a starting point to explore broader lifestyle issues in terms of social and environmental impacts. The aim was to help understand their new community at KHiO, both within the institution as well as it’s relationships with the neighborhood. Together with Hannah Jones from Goldsmiths, the students got to experience a metadesign process by taking part in a series of collaborative workshops with the aim of synergizing interdisciplinary design teams; co-design different design interventions; challenge views of what design is and what it could be.
