About Tomorrow Lab®

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 08:42:00 -0500

Tomorrow Lab is a creative testing ground of ideas and products for a better tomorrow.

Morals:

1) Progress is deliberate and iterative.

2) Insight requires exploration and experimentation. The products of Tomorrow Lab are these results.

3) Problems are approached from many angles and solutions have a variety of outcomes: a website, a service, a product, a policy.

4) Solutions are developed with and for a unique set of circumstances, people, and place.

5) Connectivity, both in process and result, is emphasized as a democratizing agent and as a catalyst for good design.

6) Honesty, urban density, local life, the internet, and the reduction of ‘me’ are our ways out. Tomorrow Lab takes interest in these things.

I met up with an old friend from Purdue, Eric Stevenson, who has been in Denmark the last 2 years studying Glass Working at Denmark Design School and Interaction Design at CIID.

He took me to a 200 year old wood supply and architectural salvage shop in Christiania.

“

Shortly before a press conference on November 9, Günter Schabowski, a spokesperson for the politburo, was handed a note that said that East Berliners would be allowed to cross the border with proper permission but given no further instructions on how to handle the information. These regulations had only been completed a few hours earlier and were to take effect the following day, so as to allow time to inform the border guards—however, nobody had informed Schabowski. He read the note out loud at the end of the conference. When the Italian journalist Riccardo Ehrman, the Berlin correspondant of ANSA newsagency, asked when the regulations would come into effect, Schabowski assumed it would be the same day based on the wording of the note and replied “As far as I know effective immediately, without delay”. After further questions from journalists he confirmed that the regulations included the border crossings towards West Berlin, which he had not mentioned until then.

Soon afterwards, a West German television channel, ARD, broadcast incomplete information from Schabowski’s press conference. A moderator stated: “This ninth of November is a historic day.” East Germany “has announced that, starting immediately, its borders are open to everyone.”

“Protest demonstrations broke out all over East Germany in September 1989. Initially, they were of people wanting to leave to the West, chanting “Wir wollen raus!” (“We want out!”). Then protestors began to chant “Wir bleiben hier”, (“We’re staying here!”). This was the start of what East Germans generally call the “Peaceful Revolution” of late 1989.”
