Make Money not Art redirected me to this “insane in the membrane” interface! Being an ID* (interaction designer) seeing this made me happy. Messy and non-functional interfaces can somehow find their ways through functionality. In parallel in my life, I’m reading Anti-Oeudipus Capitalism and Scizophrenia: “In the first place, territorial representation is made up of two heterogeneous elements, voice and graphism: the former is like the representation of words (…), while the latter is like the representation of things__of bodies__established in extended filiation. The former acts on the latter, while the latter reacts on the former, each element having its own particular force that is connoted along with that of the other, so as to perform the great task of germinal intense repression.” How does “dropping the ego” makes sense in a society where the ego is the user?

How to spot the most common frameworks that practically every design needs, so you make sure you have all the necessary elements
How to augment your own frameworks, to collect new and innovative approaches to your team’s complex design challenges
How to jump start your design process by looking at the elements you’ve already built, so you can quickly isolate those areas where innovation will pay off
