    Why slowing down can make you faster

    ‘Slow down to see it.’ Writing about this these days, over at my various newsletters for different groups of people who care about design, journaling, meaningful work, doing what matters, and taking time to really introspect.

    S P A C E | 白浜 / どこかへいかないか…

      Atelier S P A C E is connecting the world One. Authentic. Conversation. At a time.   [English below]   「他者」との対話が、「1人称で語られるストーリー」にどのように影響するのか、をテーマの一つとしてDipika Kohliが7年に渡って発行してきたZineである「S P A C E」をAtelier S P A C Eとして発展させ、自己啓発や他者との関わり方に関するワークショップに参加しながらの創作活動、そしてそのプロセスをZineとして随時公開していくことで、「S P A C Eは」という単純ながら答えのない問いかけをしていくのが本企画の趣旨である。 さらに、本企画を通じて、対話から創作、そしてそこからまた対話を、というループを起こし、日常の瑣末な気づきを表現に昇華させるという芸術活動は、個人の日常生活の中でこそ起こりうるというサスティナビリティをも提唱していく。 建築とジャーナリズムをバックグラウンドにもつ作家。アイルランドとシアトルでリポーター、編集の経験を積んだのちに、自身のメディアであるS P A C E を20177年に創立。「The San Francisco Zine Festival」、「The Festival of the Photocopier」(メルボルン)や 「Oulu Arts Festival」に出展する。TEDxスピーカーであり、アートの個展や国際交流機関の助成を受けた実績もある。デザイン・カンパニー主宰。  …
