There was some questions about the outline for the new book. I think that there will be three sections: Technology, Economy and Socio-cultural approach to service design. I think that these heading would collect quite a vast area of information under them. I'm meeting the publisher tomorrow and I think that after this we ask short abstracts (200-300 words) from the authors to see how they would fit under the headings.

Dear Satu,

 

yes, please do share the google doc with me. I am interested in the Design Thinking Approach but come from a very different background. However, when seeing Arne's post on Twitter some time ago I thought this might be a good opportunity to engage with this area.

 

Many thanks.

 

best wishes,

Dirk

Dear Dirk,

There is some intoroductory text written about the need for the book. I could share google doc with you if you are interested.

Hi Daniela,

Transformation design and services sounds really interesting, I'm looking foreward to IJD this month.

I think that there would be need even more general reflection of the discipline supported by design. I think it's well possible to use research projects/cases as empirical data and link the analysis in wider discussion.

Hi everybody

happy for this initiative to create a more research based publication on service design as I imagine everybody in the last years have managed to conduct more research in the subject and maybe in some specific fields. 

Are we then going to talk about specific research projects or should it be a more general reflection on the discipline, supported of course by some research activity? 

I have been writing recently on transformation design and transformative services. An article will be published in August by IJD about this. I am interested in the way design work within companies and communities and have a transformational impact. My work on commissioning and recently with manufacturing SMEs touch partly on this.

There could be other possible themes, but I leave it like this to get your feedback

thank you!!

Daniela

Satu,

 

would you have any further information about your plan for the book that you could share at this stage?

Hi Dirk, Sounds interesting. One idea would be to have ethnography and service design section in the book.

Hi Satu, Arne and Andy, 

 

I only have just seen this discussion. I am a sociologist involved in ethnographic and video-based studies of social interaction in museums, at opticians and to a lesser extent street-markets. I'd be very interested in contributing.

Hi Arne, yes we are working to create a new book, also University of Lapland will in some point have phd research group around the subject. Hopefully next summer we'll have service design summer school for doctoral students on service design. Our University is interested in publishing the book but I'll also contact some design research orientated publishers when we have more clear outline for the publication.
