25 degrees this morning.
Read another story about the importance of "design", although it was in physical items such as headphones etc. rather than "design"in the concept of "design" being the interaction of the consumer and item/experience. I tried to research the concept of "design" in providing municipal services, but I haven't found anything yet. I'm sure information is available on this.
It is somewhat like "big data", it just really rose to my conscious mind at a conference where there was a session (or several sessions), now I see the term "big data" all the time. From the information I read, the "big data" concept has obviously been around for awhile. I was aware of the general concept, but not the term.
That is strange how something (a slogan, idea, person etc.) can suddenly rise to your conscious mind (such as "drink the kool aid, throw under the bus etc.) and you hear it all the time.
The 2013 "holiday season" is now officially over (or at least by Monday), so I am looking forward to important decisions to be made in the next several months.
Wonderful day again weather wise today again after the cold start this morning.
Looking out over the woods at the back of the house, I am struck by how full the woods appear in the spring and summer (when the trees are all leafed out) and how desolate and empty it appears in winter. (See pictures). The green leaves etc. make such a huge difference in our experiencing the forrest I'm not sure what that all means, but it is interesting to think about how the leaves change our interaction with the forest. In Winter we can see through basically to the other side, in the Summer we can't see through them at all.
