Canuck Bruce Mau.

I believe there is a NYC retrospective on him now.

On his book Massive Change (from amazon)
“Utopianism is not dead; it has migrated from politics to materialism. This book, says Canadian industrial designer Mau (who founded Toronto City College’s Institute Without Borders), is “not about the world of design; it’s about the design of the world.”

Jeff Wilson, thanks for letting me know that you posted a thoughtful and lengthy riposte to one of my comments to Paul W’s blog! I commented on your comments on my comment over at your very fine blog!! Air kisses!

T-Man, I’m telling ya, get the guest room ready! We’re all moving up to Canadaland!

and I am proud to say the lad is Canadian!

Along with Macluhan-known (and others lesser known–Like John Ralston Saul) we Canucks seem to be leaders in modern progressive philsophy.

Something you said over on Paul Wilczynsk’s blog troubled me, and I’ve written about it over at my own blog. It seemed rude to do so without letting you know that I had done so. Please feel encouraged to come by and offer any comments/replies/angry rebuttals you feel like. I apologise for blogging about a comment you made on someone else’s blog.

You’re writing some of your best stuff ever. I had to suffer through a long meeting where a presenter offered up Blink as though it were the font of illumination itself. Needless to say, I was made progressively ill by it.
