Hundreds of people build the temple in Black Rock City. It's a community intent on creating a work of art that is a space for people to grieve and revive. We didn't have a temple in the early versions of Black Rock City. Now, people can't imagine living without it. Each year, participants create messages, tributes, and altars for who and what they want to release. The event culminates with the burning of the temple in what organically evolved to be a silent Burn.Listen to Stuart talk with Miguel Arraiz García, the team lead for this year's “Temple of the Deep.”Hear the stories of how a temple is built, from crew selection to fundraising, from chances taken to lessons learned. This poetic and playful conversation exemplifies how this year's temple is already healing. Miguel says, “We are always looking the answers above us. I was trying to make something just to look for the answer between us or among us. So it was not that much building a temple, it was more building like a shelter for emotions, a safe space where you can be with people.”Burning Man Journal: Introducing the 2025 Templewww.2025temple.comwww.miguelarraiz.comTempleGuardians.burningman.orgRenaixement: Burning Man 2016Burning Man Journal: Tomorrow Today  LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

This episode features Paula Stigler Granados, Associate Professor in the School of Public Health at San Diego State University. Paula first discusses environmental health impacts along the San Diego-Tijuana border region and insights from her recent white paper on the public health crisis caused by Tijuana River contamination. She then explores the challenges of managing growth while addressing aging infrastructure and transborder environmental issues, highlighting the need to better communicate risk and learn from past environmental trauma.   Timestamps: [2:32] Paula's thoughts on the quote from Temporary Paradise, “This is a single natural region, and a connected social landscape as well, despite the barrier.” [4:22] Paula's hopes for the white paper she co-wrote about the Tijuana River being a public health crisis. [6:12] The pathogens and toxic chemicals our border communities are exposed to from the raw sewage and runoff in the Tijuana River. [9:11] How those chemicals and toxicity impact our community around the San Diego / Baja border. [13:25] The importance of communicating better the risk and impact of this public health crisis. [14:02] Paula's interest in community-based participatory research. [18:09] The wealth of information and education now for future generations. [18:28] The role climate change has on vector-borne diseases such as Chagas disease. [22:09] The opportunity for the World Design Capital to highlight the intersection of design and environmental stewardship in the San Diego / Tijuana region. [25:38] Paula highlights the importance of honoring the community members in Imperial Beach and repairing and reducing environmental trauma in the future. [27:21] The environmental issues in Imperial Beach and surrounding the Border call for all voices to speak up, not just local or national ones.   About C-3   Even before the California Coastal Commission or Environmental Protection Agency existed, Citizens Coordinate for Century 3 (C-3) was the environmental conscience of San Diego. Since that time, in part due to C-3's leadership in education, advocacy, and empowerment, a plethora of organizations have developed throughout San Diego County. These organizations specifically focus on promoting progressive values in architecture, urban design, land-use governance, natural resource management, sustainable economic development, climate change resilience, and social justice. As the field of allies has grown, C-3's role has evolved to provide a platform that promotes creating civic community.   Opportunities for Advocacy and Engagement: C3sandiego.org Paula Stigler Granados SDSU Paula Stigler Granados LinkedIn   Quotes: “I've always felt this fluidness between Tijuana and San Diego.

So what are things that we can put into place that would at least help minimize the amount of failure that will happen?” — Paula [26:43] “I believe that the community's voices are just as important as the local leaders' voices, and they're just as important as anybody else's voice. It's going to take all of us.” — Paula [27:41]

Elisabeth Budde, Diplom Designerin, geb. 1959 in Bremen, studierte Anfang der 80er Jahre in Kiel Kommunikationsdesign und startete ihre berufliche Laufbahn bei der Rosenthal AG in Selb. Von dort zog sie die Position der stellv. Fachliche Leiterin beim Rat für Formgebung nach Frankfurt am Main. Danach wechselte sie zur Messe Frankfurt, wo sie für Sonderschauen zahlreicher Messen verantwortlich war. 1991 folgte die Selbstständigkeit. Bis heute ist sie geschäftsführende Gesellschafterin der Transparent Design Management GmbH und bietet mit ihrem Team Konzeption und Management in der Unternehmenskommunikation an. Diverse Vorträge im In- und Ausland, Jury-Tätigkeiten sowie zahlreiche ehrenamtliche Aktivitäten gehören selbstverständlich berufsbegleitend bei ihr dazu. Gut 30 Jahre ist sie Mitglied im dwb hessen und bald 25 Jahre im Deutschen Designer Club. Seit 2017 war sie wesentlich an der Entstehung der Initiative zur Bewerbung von Frankfurt Rhein-Main als World Design Capital beteiligt, die von der Werkbundakademie Darmstadt ausging. Über vier Jahre war sie für die Initiative im Projekt-Management ehrenamtlich als Director FRM des DDC aktiv. Diese konnte einen Beschluss zur Bewerbung um den Titel bei Stadt und Region erreichen. Mit dem darauf folgenden offiziellen Bewerbungs-Prozess von Stadt Frankfurt und Land Hessen ab 2021 unter Leitung von Prof. Wagner K entstand gemäß seinem Thema „Design for Democracy“ regelrecht eine Bewegung. Auch der DDC hat dafür mehrere Projekte realisiert, für die sich u.a. Elisabeth Budde weiterhin aktiv eingesetzt hat. Im Oktober 2023 dann die gute Nachricht: Frankfurt Rhein-Main gewann den Titel „World Design Capital 2026“. Prof. Matthias Wagner K leitet die Bewerbung Frankfurt RheinMain World Design Capital 2026. Hierfür entwickelte er den Claim „Design for Democracy. Atmospheres for a better life“. Er ist Ausstellungsmacher, Biennale­-Leiter, Kurator, Autor und seit 2012 Direktor des Museum Angewandte Kunst in Frankfurt am Main. Binnen nur eines Jahres positionierte er das Museum mit einem gänzlich überarbeiteten Ausstellungs- und Partizipationskonzept neu. Mit seinen wechselnden thematischen Ausstellungen richtet es seither den Fokus auf die Wahrnehmung gesellschaftlicher Strömungen und Entwicklungen.

Design - das ist nicht nur die schöne und funktionale Gestaltung von Möbeln oder Mode. Design bedeutet auch Gestaltung unseres Lebensraums. Und das ist in der Demokratie eine Aufgabe für alle, sagt der Designer Felix Kosok. „Design for Democracy“ - mit dieser Idee bewerben sich die Stadt Frankfurt und das Rhein-Main-Gebiet jetzt um den Titel „World Design Capital“ - also Welt-Hauptstadt des Designs - im Jahr 2026. Der Grafikdesigner und Design-Wissenschaftler Felix Kosok gehört zum Kuratorium dieser Initiative. Er stammt aus Frankfurt, hat in Offenbach studiert und erkennt in der Region eine ganz eigene „069-Ästhetik“, wie er sagt. Christoph Scheffer hat mit Felix Kosok gesprochen und ihn gefragt, wie er mit Design eine bessere Welt schaffen möchte. (Foto: Esistfreitag)

“If it's not Co-Created it will fundamentally fail ”— SCOTT ROBINSONIn this episode, we had the pleasure to chat with Scott Robinson, Founder and CEO of FreshForm. A customer and UX agency based in San Diego.When it comes to design, Scott Robinson thinks Frank Lloyd Wright said it best: “Form follows function—that has been misunderstood. Form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union.” Robinson takes that advice to heart, leveraging human-centred design principles to grow and differentiate brands in today's ever-changing digital landscape, including Acura, Honda, Ballast Point, Facebook, Intel, ExxonMobil, Qualcomm and the University of San Diego. Robinson has been in the field of design and marketing for nearly 20 years and at the helm of FreshForm since 2001 and remains intensely passionate about the intersection of marketing, design, technology, innovation and consumer behaviour in the digital age.We've got a chat about how human-centred design is changing as humans evolve but also the environment of humans becomes increasingly technological.We also dive into the difference and intersection of CX design and EX design, further Scott does play a key role in the context of design capital 2024, which will be a collaboration between San Diego and Tijuana in Mexico, in the episode we learn about what makes the region special and uniqueIn the episode, we jump into:✔️Designing for humans and technology in harmony.✔️Why Co-Creation is critical for innovations to survive?✔️Why great CX Design requires great EX (Employee Experience) Design?✔️How technology is becoming an extension of the human body, and how to design for it?✔️The mission and journey behind the Design Capital 2024 (San Diego and Tijuana)and many more!Thanks a lot for your time and for your learning Scott!****The GuestScott Robinson is the founder of FreshForm, an experience design consultancy that leverages a combination of design thinking, business thinking and customer experience principles to grow and differentiate companies. Scott has been in the field of design and digital experiences for over 20 years and at the helm of FreshForm since 2001.

Entrevista a Carolina López, con motivo de la capitalidad de Valencia como "Capital Mundial del Diseño 2022", con quien hablamos de los orígenes de este evento, de todas las actividades que se van a desarrollar a lo largo de este año y de cómo se pretende que todo ello genere un poso cultural en la población

Programa "enComunicación"- 17 febrero 2022

This Week in SD Tech: San Diego/Tijuana wins World Design Capital, defeating Moscow San Diego's JuneShine pulls in $24M to drive hard kombucha better-for-you alcoholic beverages Pfizer to Acquire Arena Pharmaceuticals Study: AI helps catalyze 10% employment growth in San Diego Transportation cluster through the pandemic - San Diego Regional EDC Fast food bundle: San Diego's Jack in the Box to acquire Del Taco for $575 million - The San Diego Union-Tribune

The San Diego-Tijuana region won its bid to become a World Design Capital in 2024. The designation is awarded by a Canadian organization, and it spotlights the winner for a year, with a street festival, conference and more.

After months of vitriol, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors approved rule changes that they say will make meetings more civil. Critics of the rules change say it limits the public's right to free speech. Plus, on Veterans Day we bring you the story of the first Black female prisoner of war in the country's history. Meanwhile, the USS Midway celebrates Veterans Day with special in-person activities after being sidelined last year because of the pandemic. Also, San Diego and Tijuana were recently announced as the 2024 World Design Capital, beating out Moscow. It's the first time a binational region has won. And, the pandemic hit many small arts organizations especially hard, but one organization figured out how to survive and thrive. Finally, meet Tijuanauta, a Mexican artist who took the plunge and made art his full-time job after years of hiding in an office cubicle, in this excerpt of the latest episode of the Port of Entry podcast.

El diseño es un aspecto que podemos encontrar en todo lo que utilizamos, en todo lo que tenemos y lo que percibimos en nuestros alrededores. Bajo esta filosofía, Andrea Cesarman visita la Universidad Francisco Marroquín para compartir su experiencia así como la trayectoria que ha tenido como arquitecta y diseñadora en México.  Cesarman comenta que su camino comenzó hace 30 años, cuando era difícil encontrar libros sobre arquitectura y había que importar revistas de diseño para tener conocimiento sobre el mismo. Debido a esto, junto con dos amigos decidieron no solamente abrir una empresa para su práctica profesional, sino también desarrollaron una plataforma donde se pudiera crear una comunidad de diseñadores, Design Week México.  Lo más importante para nosotros siempre es hablar de la comunidad, de crear lazos, de abrir conversaciones”.  La arquitecta menciona otras plataformas que nacieron a partir de Design Week México, siempre enfocadas en ampliar la comunidad de diseño y ayudar a los nuevos diseñadores en la creación de piezas comerciales. Debido al éxito de este proyecto, en 2018 lograron que México se convirtiera en la sede de World Design Capital.  Cesarman comparte el ejemplo de un proyecto social que consistió en la construcción de un museo en Chiapas cerca de donde se originó el movimiento zapatista, lo que implicó un reto de aceptación por parte de la comunidad. Este proyecto que a pesar de haber sido quemado y destruido en su proceso, luego de tres años se logró finalizar y hoy en día es un valor apreciado por las personas de esta región. Luego, la arquitecta expresa la importancia del diseño, señalando que el mejor diseño es el que se hace pensando en un bienestar social más que en un bienestar económico.   Para concluir, Cesarman explica cómo ha cambiado la creación de riqueza en el tiempo, siendo antes el manejo de propiedades, trabajadores o empresas; a diferencia de ahora, donde solo una idea puede generar ganancias. También, aconseja al público a tener un pensamiento de diseño para mejorar el mundo. 

Mikko Leisti on kaupunkitapahtumien ja -kulttuurin ammattilainen, joka ei pidä meteliä itsestään, mutta jonka ajattelu ja ahkeruus näkyvät monessa paikassa. Hän perusti yhdessä Jyrki Sukulan kanssa legendaarisen Helmi-ravintolan, hän perusti Art Goes Kapakka -festivaalin ja hän oli keskeisessä roolissa siinä, että Helsingistä tuli World Design Capital. Laajinta vaikuttavuutta on kuitenkin ollut Mikon taustatyöllä Helsingin keskustakirjastoa varten. Nyt kun kirjasto on valmis, on oikea hetki katsoa hänen seurassaan sekä taakse- että eteenpäin. Tässä HDW Podcastin jaksossa puhumme siitä, miten esiselvityksellä parhaiten tuetaan suurta julkista hanketta, millaista kaupunkikulttuurin renessanssia elämme Helsingissä juuri nyt ja siitä, mitä vaaditaan, jotta hyvä trendi jatkuisi.
