Have you come across an anti-establishment design academic? Coz I haven't
There are some design academics I huge admire for their theories and frameworks but hate to see them operate with a slightly condescending attitude towards non-academics.
Where they have like an immediate and almost instinctual aversion for people thinking about design without use of jargon, without following the typical conventions they are used to.
This makes me wonder, in what way does the liberatory potential of a theory (or really any idea) is hidden from a person too accustomed with its institutional baggage aka it's routinized ways of seeing things.
