I’ve been think about design more than usual recently; most of it is still puzzling to me, despite Gary’s assertion that the plane that got us to Romania that time didn’t fall apart because it was designed.
Nouveau Neolithic is Ian Ferguson‘s view of the subject. Coming from a designer’s perspective, Ferguson designs solutions for post-apocalyptic gourmet eating. Design orientated experimental archaeology? Perhaps, although I don’t think I’m completely convinced. No doubt a flint specialist would disagree with the description of “two fist sized rocks”, not to mention that the included recipe requires the addition of chocolate.
I’m not sure if it helps me understand at all.
