Letting go of Design Thinking... And Western ideas of being 'Developed'

In this audiojournal entry, I talk about my struggles to revamp my portfolio case studies to reflect a more competent UCD story than the Design Thinking ass I've been sniffing since I learned design. :P I also talk about why I am actually looking forward to applying to Microsoft. Then I go on a long tangent/rant about the failures of our society to learn from history such as Ancient African societies that were more egalitarian, sustainable, and far more developed than we currently care to admit. I hope to help humanity get past this era so that we can look back and realize this Dark Age of Ignorance that we live in... so that we can humble ourselves. We are not Gods... we are ants inches away from drowning ourselves in the lake of ignorance.
