- Ontwerp
The eminent US sociologist Richard Sennett talked about what designers could learn from musicians in the 2011 Premsela Lecture, "Out of Touch", on 26 June at the Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ in Amsterdam. In his lecture, Sennett argues for feeling and emotion. He observes that in our "user-friendly", increasingly digitised world we no longer feel products – we are literally out of touch. And he explains the surprising lessons we can learn from wild cellists.
