Centering whom/what exactly?
I have been thinking deeply about “human”, “non-human”, “more-than-human” and “non-user” personas and how they all interact with each other. What do we mean when we say we design for and with life?

Such a challenging and essential question. I was thinking about this the other day along the Jones Falls, running unexpectedly into a great blue heron, which was breathtaking, but also looking at the water striders skimming over the surface of one of the small branches of the river. Categories like “life” and “non-human” are so broad and over-general. There’s an infinity of vantage points on any situation, and therefore an infinity of “leverage points” for intervention. How to work with such deep openness feels both daunting and exciting.
