Magic number seven: Designing according to the laws of the universe

A few months ago I got a new book from a friend. It is a Dutch book with the title: "The whole elephant"

This great book written by Marja de Vries took me on a journey along several world relegions, views, scientific revelations all working towards a comprehensive and universal set of laws.

The book blew my mind because in earlier philosophical discussions I made several sketches that are coming very close to the view of the writer of the book. She just connected some more dots to a view that made complete sense to me.

The magic number seven kept ringing in my mind. In several other design themed books I stumbled across the same number. But also in none design oriented books it came back.

I want to present in 21 slides of 21 seconds each. On stage I want to connect the dots for you, and hopefully inspire you to look at the world with a slightly different eye...
