I honestly suspect that this is what most design research actually is like. Almost every technique you “suggest” is (at least in my imagination) practiced day in and day out by every design research consultancy in the world, usually to a less comical degree but to some degree nonetheless. Maybe it’s an outright scam, but maybe it’s like doping in the Tour de France, something so pervasive that nobody in the ranks even notices that they’re doing it and nobody at the top wants to look too deeply into it. Don’t ask, don’t tell.
There’s a fine line, I think, between deliberate deception and sloppy research thinking.
I detect a similar, “modest proposal” style message in your performance. Do you suspect this is the case as well? Can any design research truly be free from these problems?
that was one of the most brilliant presentations i`ve ever heard, and funny too! congratulations!
is there any possibility that you could have a text version of it?
