Fremtidens sundhedssystemer
Hele denne weekend har /KL7 været på konference i Amsterdam. Her demonstrerede og debatterede forskere, hackere, læger og helt almindelige mennesker fra hele verden, hvordan man, vha. simpel forbrugerteknologi og lidt mere prototypiske ideer kan revolutioner sundheds- og behandlingssytemer. Lad os med det samme sige at, fremtiden ser lys ud – det ser ud som om der er driftige forandring på vej overalt; lige fra at have fuld kontrol over dit blodsukker på din smartphone, over halvering af epilepsimedicin uden at øge antallet af anfald via et armbånd, til kontrol over både maniske og...
Read MoreShare With Care
We’ve been working with The Ministry of Culture, The Right Owners Association, two telco industry associations and Danish The Consumer Council on a campaign strategy for changing behavior and attitude towards rights covered culture. Both to bring about historical alignment between industries, right owners, and consumer organizations in a collaborative effort. But also to deconstruct the antagonist meme of ‘the evil industry’ on one side and ‘illegal’ consumers on the other.

As for...

Read MoreBehavioral engineering as the principal focus of 21′st century design?
According to a recent manifesto from Rob Girling, founder of the global design company Artifact, the aim and obligation of 21′st century design is: Shaping behavior for preferable outcomes. We could not agree more. Go read Girlings manifesto. Or just watch this little film first: 21st Century Design from Artefact on...
Read MoreA new action paradigm? Are men taking over?
The shortest answer is doing the thing. These are the words of Ernest Hemmingway. Hemmingway is famous for his notoriously masculine nature and a view of life as most fulfilling with a gun in the hand. And this reasoning seems to echo today where metro sexuality is giving in to ‘retro sexuality’ and authenticity as the new black. Let me give you a couple of examples from my own life. We established /KL7 because we had grown tired of working in a ‘symbolic economy’ of communication, graphical design and branding. I recently published an article arguing that...
