a shared knowledge of the current situation, a process that engages
the collective intelligence of the entire developmental team as well

The Social ProductWhen is a product deeply meaningful to its users and buyers? On the internet we currently see a spurring of social product and services that link and connect us in new ways and for new purposes.

Reflections / Blog
In this blog I will write about myself, design and that projects and events I participate in.
Meaningful Visions for Life is a design consultancy focusing on developing products, systems, services and processes for clients working in the merge between digital and physical market places.
I am Martin Ludvigsen, a designer, researcher and explorer of social interaction, design of technology, products and their systems. My focus right now is on design consulting and developing this design focus within the perspective of collective intelligence.
I have concluded a PhD-project within the Center for Interactive Spaces, a multi disciplinary research center with among others computer scientist and interaction designers from the Aarhus School of Architecture like myself.

Website seems to be roling
It seems that the website is just rolling its way forward. When ever I get the time I will be updating and uploading content to different sections and creating new sections. I hope my CMS-guru Kaspar will soon create subsections and I even have a pretty good idea as to how it could be done while maintaining the minimalistic style of the site (and the cms-system-layout).
I will try and create a litlle more stylish style sheet in a few days and also I'm scheming a design scheme for how pictures should be standardized in the future. Let's see how it will evolve - hope is green

Danish Design Award - The Vision Prize
BIG news: we won one of the Danish Design Awards this year with our iFloor, the interactive floor installation we made for the Municipal Library in Aarhus, Denmark.
To me, that is one of the distinctions I would most like to win, and now I have, with all the other guys at the centre of course.
And Andreas and I even got to shake hands with the crown prince of Denmark
Hurra! Remember to enjoy the first big prize you win – it probably will not be the same next time.
