The articles given this week may have been more difficult than previous weeks, but they do focus on a different aspect of design similar to the other readings. This time however, they reflect designs of specific time periods and their inner thoughts of what designing and ideologies mean to them and to other people.
One thing I have noticed in these articles written as Manifestos is how they reflect a certain time period in terms of how certain things are described. From the Future Manifesto’s view of ideas in relation to violence, to the Who We Are manifesto explaining the design and ideas of certain structures such as bridges are not created from imagination nor were obligated to create. How society benefits from different creations as well as some negative aspects when different technology is utilized instead. In a way, this could reflect how ideas and creations are utilized and sometimes criticized in the modern era.
The format some of these articles were written and broken into separate lines may appear off to some, but to others could highlight different emotion when discussing the negative or important aspects of design and ideology.
