John Tunney has got some excellent views on creativity and recently he made a post regarding something that he calls Peripheral Viewing. I have had the time to read it all, but it sure sounds interesting. Browsing through a bunch of images and then asking yourself what sort of ideas that made, seems like great workout for your brain. This might be the cure for "Designers Block" everyone. For those that are unfamilair with Designers Block, it’s the equivalant to "Writers Block". This is also a great example of how business execs can benefit from designer techniques and processes, i’ll leave it up to Magnus to go into a deeper discussion on the matter of design processes.

Few months ago I discovered a german weblog about Design Management. The weblog is maintained by Ralf Beuker. It’s highly recommendable – and a valuable source of information on different design matters.
Take a look.
EDF has been around for a while. It’s a good initiative, but as a Dane I have to ask my self - why dont’t we have any danish representatives in the club? Shoulden’t we?
"The EDF network aims at presenting a dynamic forum for European
cooperation devoted to the exchange of knowledge and experience in the
area of design. Through the programme of its activities, the EDF
network wants to extend research and knowledge in the field of
contemporary design in Europe as well as develop close connections with
design centers, museums, schools and academies, taking into account the
evolution of design at a professional, educational, cultural, economic
and societal level. Moreover, the EDF looks forward to underlining the
innovative character of design in Europe corresponding to a
contemporary way of thinking. Design is envisaged in relationship to
management, communication, education, museography, and culture. This
project has been carried out with the support of the European
Community."
