Facilitator Niels Kijf
Niels is a digital design innovator and started the Social Design Academy to gather people around real social software design.
He is a pattern recognizer. He has a strong will to design software that benefits society. He learns, teaches, fails and continues. His drive is overwhelming as it is intoxicating.
He doesn’t tolerate mediocrity, but doesn’t aim for perfection either. His matra:
I Listen without disruption
I think in solitude
I design in collaboration
I tell to involve and evolve people
He has a strong believe that designing digital conversations instead of pages, will bring back ethics to digital design.
Society shall use distributed technology to benefit society.
Blockchain can make the world a fairer place, but we need to bring decision making into our digital networks, as our centralized governance is failing.
Brands are owned by the few, Social Brands are owned by the many.
If we want to design the Internet of Value(s) we need to design digital conversations instead of pages, and build a Social Appstore
We are designing solution for problems from our past.
If we want to make the world a better place, we need to take a stance in the digital space and design for desired outcomes by defining our principles.
Everybody has a role to play in the new Social Appstore.
We need new social design tools. Instead of solving problems with technology we need to build social technology to help us solve (wicked) problems.
Help yourself, so you can help others.
We are building the wrong things in the digital space and seriously need to build what the worlds needs now.
Our current Digital Product Design is broken, using software and AI to target the mind is simply evil. Learn about the hierarchy dilemma and how real social software design boosts the social cohesion we as people desperately need. We must redefine our UX definition.
The Social Design Academy redefined UX into Social UX the last 18 months, and we are slowly onboarding talent. We should avoid building in digital what we already know, as digital design gives us the power to organize ourselves in new ways.
Start designing with your favorite social brand today and subscribe to meaning. It’s time that we pick up the torch for a brighter tomorrow together. Here we turn digital product designers into change makers.
