Design 1o1 Redux - Part 3: My World (iversity)

“Design 1o1 Redux” is an introduction to design through 101 exercises. A six-month journey divided into 3 courses “online” here on iversity (Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3), one final exhibition / graduation party and an “offline” workshop in which we will go one step beyond.
In short:
Part 1: “Myself” (Nov 2 to Dec 27)
Part 2: “My House” (Jan 4 to Feb 28)
Part 3: “My World” (Feb 29 to Apr 24)
Exhibition / Graduation: In Croatia (Apr 23-24)
Winter camp: In Croatia (Apr 25 to May 1)

And now, Part 3: My World...
Johan Cruyff, a very famous footballer (and fantastic designer), once said:
“I never practice tricks. I play very simply. That's what it's all about. Playing simple football is the hardest thing.”
If we think about it, design is everything. It can be football, but it can also be an object, a building, a game… our lives, our worlds!
In this part of the Design 1o1 Redux, we will go out and “get busy” designing our very own worlds. Something for which we will need to master a high level of simplicity.
We will work with all kinds of cool apps for phones and tablets (do you have a smartphone or tablet?). We will also share our works with the others on Instagram, using special hashtags.
You will learn to develop some basic design attitudes for better understanding the mechanics of today’s world.
One step at a time, you will learn that “design” is foremost a language. A language shared, talked and discussed by designers from all over the world.
How does the world look through the special lenses of "design"?
Along the way, you will learn about a considerably high number of things. Starting from your very own self.
