SUMMARY:IDX SYD - Celebrating World Industrial Design Day: Lets get ethical
DESCRIPTION:It’s that time again to put down the markers\, step away from that disobedient CAD file\, and wrap that concept presentation up so we can all catch up for the next Industrial Design Xchange event: Celebrating World Industrial Design Day. \nThis year’s theme? Let’s Get Ethical. \nJoin us as we celebrate with another one-of-a-kind show & tell night—this time diving into the messy\, meaningful space where design meets ethics. \nWe’re inviting you to reflect\, respond\, and bring an object that tells a story. \nBring an object\, material sample\, image\, or prototype\, or even a note from a project that made you stop and think. \nThe realm of ethics is vast\, complex\, and personal. To guide the evening\, we’ve layed out some themes to explore: \nEthics; Power  \nEthics; Responsibility \nEthics; Transparency \nEthics; Consent \nEthics; Repair \nEthics; Compromise \nTogether we’ll create an interactive gallery installation that surfaces the quiet (and loud) ethics code we tackle as designers. \nCome contribute to the collective conversation\, hear from others\, and raise a glass to ethics in action.

SUMMARY:IDX SYD - Celebrating World Industrial Design Day: Objects of Emotion
DESCRIPTION:IDX is celebrating World Industrial Design Day 2024 with a very special exhibition and show and tell night: “Objects of Emotion”. Come celebrate all things industrial design with our passionate community of Industrial Designers. \nThe theme for this year’s WIDD 2024 is ‘Let’s get emotional’ 😄👀😭 \nSo…to tap into our emotional side we’re asking each of you to: \nBring an object that evokes an emotional reaction in you. It could be a product that has improved your quality of life or “sparks joy”\, perhaps it reminds you of home\, or frustrates you beyond belief! \nTogether we will create a communal exhibition\, placing each object in our open gallery. During the event we’ll gather around our metaphorical campfire of objects to share stories of why and how these objects made us feel something. \nThere’s no restrictions on your choice of product\, if you choose something larger than you can carry\, print a photo of it and bring that with you. \nJoin us at Willie the Boatman in St.Peters\, to meet up with friends and colleagues and celebrate our community. Ticket includes light refreshments and a drink on arrival.

SUMMARY:DESIGN IN THE AGE OF TRANSITIONS
DESCRIPTION:COVID\, climate change\, wars\, gender struggles and new technology acceleration: recent events question the societal choices we have made in the past years. As we realize that change is the only constant in our personal and professional lives\, we recognize that business as usual cannot be the answer. To change direction\, we need a different perspective\, a different type of leadership. In the Age of Transitions\, comes Design Leadership. Design is an alternative route to regenerate business\, technology\, and ultimately our lives. We need to design for impact\, to transform our behaviors\, usher in new ways of working and collaborating… Designers by nature thrive in times of transitions\, focused as they are on improving existing situations and envisioning a better world\, as well as their ability to remain creative despite the turmoil. Meet experienced design leaders making a difference in industry and academia\, as well as the game-changers from the World Design Organization and the Ellen MacArthur Foundation. \nWebsite \nWDO Member: Dassault Systèmes
