Privacy by design: the design in favour of privacy

  The laws on privacy isn’t enough when we talk from a technical and design point of view of information applications because not all data and neither the cookies are essential.  As user and beta test in some online platforms I took care of this point particularly from the technic point of view.  Always placing the blame solely  on users the question it isn’t the right direction and neither to block the access to the service because we haven’t accept cookies for marketing pourpose it isn’t correct.  The aspect from technician, also in the beta, is more complex.  Particularly in some professional ambits almost we are daily immersed in the technologies and we cohabit, in many cases, also in the night.  The technology in many cases interact with the technologies nearby and it’s necessary of interoperability. This point doesn’t mean that it’s necessary to pass all but it’s enough the essential personal data and the permission of user in connection to the r...

Architectures of place: the museums

  Who of us at least one time in the life isn't been in a museum?  Among the museums I have chosen three of deconstructivist style that they represent the way in which the deconstructivist architecture relates to the urban context and integrates with it.  The first museum is the Guggenheim Museum of Bilbao city in Spain of the architect Frank Gehry.  It's known particularly to architects and students of architecture as an example of deconstructivist architecture, it likes for its sinuous forms but especially because it's known to be an example of urban redevelopment of Bilbao harbor turning it as a pole of cultural attraction for the entire area.  It's known also to engineering technicians to be covered of titanium plate sheets that they change its colours in function of weather and sun exposure and to be designed with CATIA, advanced software of design and computing in aerospace industry.  In the museum there are works of artists as Richard Serra, Sol Lewi...

To design it could say that the object could answer to usability and feasibility. To image and to design often they fall in with the production and the commercializing of the product.  A good design has necessity of many years to be a valid product and with quality standard right for clients. None client is glad of a purchase that it doesn’t satisfy its requests or its expectations.  Looking some design objects often the clients think that they are dropped down in the reality from nothing and they see in the design object a polemical answer of designer to the concept of shape that follow the function.  As critical person m...
