deep ecology-a new paradigm

Today, Gunta left 2 thoughtful sentences to her undergraduate class.

---1. A girl thought that her idea of project is too personal. Gunta asked that which original idea or initial concept isn't personal idea? only the idea which give you impulse and passion may go universial.

I deeply subscribe to this perception, who would like our idea that ourself don't like? I also had same thoughts as that girl, worried about if my idea is too subjective or personal. Yes, every project or idea should start from the point, which comes from our passion truely.

This topic recalled my last night searching experience on google for seeking an Iphone application, IP address tracker and statistic tool, there is a guy questioned online: Is there a Statcounter iPhone App in the pipeline? I've no doubt there is a huuuuge amount of demand for this....It is therefore appropriate to be convinced our really thinking and needs. that is what worth to spend time and energy, and we could work out at all.

----2. A student was wondering at if his idea is too artistic to design. Gunta answered that she don't care about is't art or design. Actually, where is the edge between design and art? how we have a rather design sense ?

By the way,book of " the web of life", recommend by Brain came, I am going to read the chapter about system Theories at first!
