“Les responsables d’innovation continuent de
 rechercher la manière la plus efficace de
 marrier Design et Technologie.”

Paris 2.0
“So what’s next for technology and design? A lot
 less thinking about technology for technology’s
 sake, and a lot more thinking about design. Art
 humanises technology and makes it
 understandable. Design is needed to make sense
 of information overload. It is why art and design
 will rise in importance during this century as we
 try to make sense of all the possibilities that
 digital technology now affords.”

John Maeda
President, RISD
Huffington Post - 21 September 2009
“Technology is anthropology. It’s not the gear,
 it’s the people.”

Endurance, reliability
                     Since the mobile phone is perceived as
                     a long-term investment like a car, it is
                     repaired rather than replaced, and used
                     for a much longer period of time by
                     each owner.
Informal repair culture




                    The cost and ubiquity of mobile phones
                    have given rise to an entirely new
                    profession and culture - the mobile phone
                    repairman, who builds a reputation based
                    on his innate technical ability to solve
                    challenges and repair phones.
                    .
Loss of investment




                     High unemployment, instability and
                     other factors lead to high crime rates.
                     Phones are easy to steal and dispose.
                     Everyone has either lost a phone or been
                     robbed of their phone.
Sharing and community
                  African communities are closely knit
                  based on a variety of factors such as tribal
                  affiliation and loyalty - often greater than
                  that to a nation, extended family
                  networks, social and religious affiliation
                  leading to greater communal sharing and
                  support of the aged, the young and the
                  infirm.
Learning




           Since the mobile phone is often the first
           ICT device for the majority of the lower
           income groups in Africa, it’s their first
           introduction to technology.
           The mobile is becoming a powerful
           platform for the dissemination of
           knowledge.

Mark VANDERBEEKEN, Les Responsables d'innovation continuent de rechercher la manière la plus efficace pour marier Design et Technologie(PARIS 2.0,Sept 2009)

  • 1. “Les responsables d’innovation continuent de rechercher la manière la plus efficace de marrier Design et Technologie.” Paris 2.0
  • 2. “So what’s next for technology and design? A lot less thinking about technology for technology’s sake, and a lot more thinking about design. Art humanises technology and makes it understandable. Design is needed to make sense of information overload. It is why art and design will rise in importance during this century as we try to make sense of all the possibilities that digital technology now affords.” John Maeda President, RISD Huffington Post - 21 September 2009
  • 3. “Technology is anthropology. It’s not the gear, it’s the people.” Jose Antonio Vergas Technology and Innovations Editor Huffington Post - 21 September 2009

  • 5. Endurance, reliability Since the mobile phone is perceived as a long-term investment like a car, it is repaired rather than replaced, and used for a much longer period of time by each owner.
  • 6. Informal repair culture The cost and ubiquity of mobile phones have given rise to an entirely new profession and culture - the mobile phone repairman, who builds a reputation based on his innate technical ability to solve challenges and repair phones. .
  • 7. Loss of investment High unemployment, instability and other factors lead to high crime rates. Phones are easy to steal and dispose. Everyone has either lost a phone or been robbed of their phone.
  • 8. Sharing and community African communities are closely knit based on a variety of factors such as tribal affiliation and loyalty - often greater than that to a nation, extended family networks, social and religious affiliation leading to greater communal sharing and support of the aged, the young and the infirm.
  • 9. Learning Since the mobile phone is often the first ICT device for the majority of the lower income groups in Africa, it’s their first introduction to technology. The mobile is becoming a powerful platform for the dissemination of knowledge.
