Inaugural lecture from Professor Peter Lloyd

A dialogue with the future: design thinking and the twenty-first century imagination

Professor Professor Peter Lloyd

Wednesday 2 December 2015

Sallis Benney Theatre

A dialogue with the future Design thinking and the twenty-first century imagination

Overview and video

Design, the ‘D’ in TED, has well and truly broken out of the Design School. In fact it made its escape some decades ago but still retains its potential to develop our collective imagination and enrich inter-disciplinary dialogue.

In this lecture, Professor Lloyd draws on over 20 years of research and teaching to trace a journey from the cognitive activity of the brain to the architecture and politics of democracy, and from Bitcoin to football to education. The linking thread is design thinking and he argues that understanding design as a process of dialogue is not only fundamental to an ethical engagement with the world, but vital to securing an equitable future for all.
