Podcast 14: Why is seeking friction so important, and how does design contribute to this?

Design can play an important role in connecting people, making difficult issues negotiable and narrowing gaps in society. We spoke to Joes Janmaat and Manon Barendse of Studio Sociaal Centraal together with Martijn Paulen, director of Dutch Design Foundation about why it is good to sometimes seek out the frictions.
