THE CIRRUS ADMIN MEETING IN OSLO
Delegates discussing during a coffee break.
The annual administrative meeting of Cirrus took place in the newly housed school in Oslo. The meeting was well attended and many new issues were brought up, but maybe the most discussed were the changes that are happening to design in the world generally and secondary to the design schools. We seem to be rather behind with our programs since the world of design is changing so fast with new technology and new media access. This is a challenge for our schools that have to look out for the strength of tradition, keeping in hand the quality and order of the past while responding to immense changes in information and product development. The most recent news is that in the English language there are over 2500 terms that include the word ‘design’.
Cirrus leader Halldór GÃslason recaps the year and hears ideas about further development of projects and exchanges.
The guests of course visited properly the new premises in Oslo and there was discussion about accommodation for our creative operations.
Coordinators working hard planning the coming year, exchange and cooperation projects.
