The Dionysian Thought

In a Dionysian play with the thought, the book explicates a philosophical clarification of how design relates to creativity. Creativity is a destruction of the established because creativity is the expression of a transformation. The book is an intent to clarify and articulate how design is a concept of a dramatic event in the thought; how the power of thinking is what creates the world. And how thinking enables aesthetic processing of the surface of the material, with which aesthetics, as a sensory movement, creates the transforming forms. Design, in addition to the scientific understanding, must be understood as aesthetic unfolding, where it is not the beautification that is ideal, but the ease of a Dionysian play; a play with colours, movements and the infinity of form, where science, technology, even art can change its form. That is how we can create Dionysian experiences in a material world. Saxo.com: "An intellectual and aesthetic inspiring book that with philosophical concepts illustrates design as an aesthetic transformation. The book seeks to answer how design is both destructive and transformative at the same time. And with beautiful illustrations, the book explicates Issey Miyake's design that gives us insight in how design is an expression of a complex concept that originates from the very relation between the thought of creation and the depth of the material". Dr.phil., Professor Ole Fogh Kirkeby: "an attempt inspired by Gilles Deleuze and Friedrich Nietzsche to provide a criticism of the contemporary design phenomenon using Issey Miyake".
