Bruce Mau thoughts

This is a very interesting and enlightening manifesto. While I do not agree with everything that is said, the points that are made have the ingredients to make every project a success. This is a very minimalistic approach to finding and cultivating good designs. I do not agree that with the whole "go with the flow" attitude approached in the writing. There have been plenty of times that i have found my designs through mistakes, but i think that a little structure and setting time lines is needed when working as a group. Also, i do not think that everyone is a leader all the time. In work, school and social life i have come across many that do not show leadership qualities. I completely agree with “Love your experiments”, we should all be having fun with whatever we make! If you are not having fun, then how can you really make designs that show off your talents. That is why I am switching careers. I was not enjoying what I was doing, and wanted to push myself into something that I have always enjoyed doing.
