A Peter Jones Place

Dialogue - the search through meaning to understanding - is not common in our culture. Consider how people use the word to refer to very different communicative practices. Dialogue makes sense of different perspectives for a shared concern and enables wise action from that understanding.

Unlike the strategic goal of designed experiences, where we become spectators or at best players, dialogue enacts the real. Dialogic design is not reinventing the social; it is intentional social system design. It is inquiry, understanding, enactment - not technique. It means asking questions that help us discover what matters.

How can Design do better by doing good? How might we innovate a future with more meaning and less stuff? What are the emerging practices of new citizenship? Who are we educating ourselves to become?

Innovation is always turning toward what's next, and what's next is the move toward socially relevant and sustainable practices.
