Design is an inbetweener materially and conceptually connecting two distinct points in time and space.

Person (mouth) _ pea

Person uses hand to pick up pea and eat it.

Person uses a ‘tool’ _chopsticks, fork, spoon, mother, machine…

Person wants to eat peas every day_cultivates_freezes_transports
_distributes_sells/buys_cooks_uses tool

The choices of how to get from A to B (mouth to pea) every single occasion that a decision needed to be made, slowly contributed to the building of the contextual and ideological framework of the possible that has to be continuously put into question and resolved.

Design as a narrative connection between two points in space and time evokes a “road trip” movie. Those two points are almost irrelevant, they just provide a context… our characters set themselves for whatever aleatory reason to go from A to B, the story is never about the achievement of the goal, but how that goal is achieved, it is not about the arriving but the travelling, in which way is that connection materialised… to the point that the ‘less functional’ the travel, the more interesting reality becomes…
