“ The MA Innovation in Practice at Goldsmiths comes at a poignant time in our cultural and technology and business history. Many of the Innovation writers of Design led, design facilitated or even trans disciplinary Innovation point to this. Innovation, seeing new things in new ways, especially brought into being using creative endeavor while working across a spectrum of contributing disciplines is now agreed to be the way, not only to create new and relevant Ideas, but also to enable them to come into being and be nurtured to a point that they become part of everyday culture.”

Design ThinkingA new course option this year is the course on Design Thinking
“Design Thinking” has emerged in the last ten years as one of the most important, successful, and sought after research methods. Largely inspired by the enormous success of the use of a range of different “user-centred” research methods within the development of a number of key recent technologies, from computers to mobile phones, the recognition of the ‘value’ of any form of creative, ideational, or ‘innovative’ research method to our current “knowledge economy,” and the so-called “relevancy gap” of so much recent management theory, that sort of creative, problem solving, and “integrative thinking” (Martin, 2008, 2009) that typifies it, has come to be seen as one of the most effective ways to treat many of those most intractable, complex, or “wicked problems” (Rittel, 1973) that are confronting us today, from the prediction of consumer demand within the innovation cycle of any new system, service, or product, to the problems of the analysis and implementation of those organizational structures, leadership ideals, or production processes that are required for their realisation.
