A Chronicle of DESIS-China

Figure 1

DESIS network is an emerging and explorative initial in terms of topics and organization,promoted and founded by Prof. EzioManzini and his team.A defined basic of framework f this network is “DESIS-international and DESIS-Locals”. As matter of fact, every DESIS-local has its different local context and system of network. They have a common vision but work in different ways. DESIS-China is a typical DESIS-Local and was co-founded by six leading design schools in China in collaboration to Politecnicodi Milano(Polimi).The founding members of DESIS-China includes:Academy of Arts & Design, Tsinghua University,Beijing School of Design, Hunan University, Changsha School of Design, Jiangnan University, Wuxi College of Design and Innovation, Tongji University, Shanghai College of Design, Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, Guangzhou School of Design, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong

DESIS-China actively organizesmeetings,seminars, forums and exhibitions in order to promote related exchange and collaboration and is often involved into some important events.On one hand, DESIS-China consolidates the strategic partnership between founding members;it produces effective academic and social impacts on another.This articleaims to show a roadmap of DESIS initial in China: the background, how it was incubated, prepared, founded and promoted,and what happened and what is going on. (figure 1)

During the foundation of DESIS-International and DESIS-China, I was doing my PhD study with Prof. EzioManzini in Polimi while I also have my original position in School of Design, Jiangnan University. This double facets position enabled me to actively involve into those initials as a promoter.And that’s a condition that I have a try to generate this list, so called “a chronicle”. This chronicle starts the launching of CCSL project and ends with coming events in next months. Somehow the DESIS initial is spin-off of CCSL. After that,DESIS-brazil was established, followed by DESISChina and soon it’s emerging in all continents. In fact, the context of DESIS-China can be traced back to Sustainable Everyday Project (SEP 2001-03)leaded by EzioManzini and Francois Jegou. .The part of outcome was from“Strategic design and Design for sustainability in China” (2000-2001), programme of research promoted by the Hong Kong Polytechnic University where Prof. manzini was Chair Professor of Design under the Distinguished Scholars Schemeduring that time. Four universities in China were involved into it. Prof. Manzini and his team ever organized workshops in each university. They are Guangzhou Academy of Fine Art, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hunan University and Tsinghua University. Five years later, CCSL-China programmebecome a milestone triggeringanother wave in China.

>October, 2006, Milano: CCSL project launched

Creative Community for Sustainable Lifestyles(CCSL) is a project promoted by the Task Force on Sustainable Lifestyles, within the United Nations 10 Year Framework of Programmes on Sustainable Consumption and Production.

The CCSL Project is coordinated by DISIndaco,PolitecnicodiMilano in Italy and by Strategic Design Scenarios (SDS), in Belgium, withthe United Nations Environmental Programme(UNEP) as global partner and with some specific local partners in Brazil, India and China.

DESIS-China was founded only one and half years ago, but the preparation, foundation and running until now seems a long story to us. For limitation of space and authors’ experiences, we have to select part of related initials and activities in this chronicle, there must be some interesting information missed. Nevertheless, to review the past is very helpful to move ahead in future to DESIS-China, and it also could be good reference to other DESIS-Locals.

DSEIS網(wǎng)絡(luò)由EzioManzini教授和他的研究團(tuán)隊(duì)發(fā)起，無論是所圍繞的領(lǐng)域（社會(huì)創(chuàng)新與可持續(xù)設(shè)計(jì)）還是這個(gè)組織形式都充滿活力和探索精神。這個(gè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)的基本結(jié)構(gòu)是由“DESIS—國際和DESIS—地方”組成。事實(shí)上，從地域背景和網(wǎng)絡(luò)系統(tǒng)上，每個(gè)DESIS—地方都有自己的特點(diǎn)。本著共同的愿景，以不同的方式運(yùn)作。DESIS—中國就是一個(gè)典型的DESIS—地方，是由國內(nèi)6所一流設(shè)計(jì)院校與米蘭理工的合作中共同發(fā)起成立的。這六所設(shè)計(jì)院校包括：清華大學(xué)美術(shù)學(xué)院，北京；江南大學(xué)設(shè)計(jì)學(xué)院，無錫；同濟(jì)大學(xué)設(shè)計(jì)創(chuàng)意學(xué)院，上海；湖南大學(xué)設(shè)計(jì)藝術(shù)學(xué)院，長沙；廣州美術(shù)學(xué)院設(shè)計(jì)學(xué)院，廣州；香港理工大學(xué)設(shè)計(jì)學(xué)院，香港。

自成立以來，DESIS—中國積極組織會(huì)議、研討會(huì)、論壇、展覽等各類學(xué)術(shù)和推廣活動(dòng)，并積極參與或整合到其它大型的活動(dòng)中，促進(jìn)這個(gè)領(lǐng)域的交流與合作。它一方面強(qiáng)化了發(fā)起院校之間的戰(zhàn)略伙伴關(guān)系；另一方面，它產(chǎn)生了有效的學(xué)術(shù)和社會(huì)影響力。文章試圖展現(xiàn)DESIS在中國成長的軌跡，描述其背景，如何醞釀，籌備，發(fā)起和推動(dòng)的，以及發(fā)生過和正在發(fā)生的事情。

在DESIS—國際和DESIS—中國籌備和成立期間，筆者正在師從EzioManzini教授攻讀米蘭理工大學(xué)博士學(xué)位，同時(shí)還保留國內(nèi)江南大學(xué)設(shè)計(jì)學(xué)院教師的身份，這種雙重身份促使作者成為DESIS聯(lián)盟的主要推動(dòng)者之一，參與了很多籌備工作。以此經(jīng)歷，筆者嘗試梳理了一個(gè)相關(guān)事件列表，姑且稱之為“大事記”。這個(gè)大事記以CCSL項(xiàng)目的開始為開端，以今后幾個(gè)月即將來臨的活動(dòng)結(jié)尾。某種程度上，DESIS聯(lián)盟是CCSL項(xiàng)目的后續(xù)產(chǎn)品，首先成立的是DESIS—巴西，DESIS—中國緊跟其后，很快延伸到各大洲。不過，DESIS—中國的背景還可以追溯本世紀(jì)初EzioManzini教授和Francois Jegou領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的“可持續(xù)日常生活”項(xiàng)目（SEP 2001-03）。在這個(gè)項(xiàng)目中，關(guān)于中國部分又源于香港理工大學(xué)的“在中國的戰(zhàn)略設(shè)計(jì)和可持續(xù)設(shè)計(jì)”（2000－2001）研究項(xiàng)目，當(dāng)時(shí)Manzini教授作為設(shè)計(jì)學(xué)院的首席教授（杰出學(xué)者計(jì)劃）在香港理工訪問一年。國內(nèi)有四個(gè)大學(xué)參與了這個(gè)項(xiàng)目，包括清華美院、湖南大學(xué)、廣州美院和香港理工。Manzini教授和香港理工的同事分別到各個(gè)學(xué)校組織工作坊和合作，這些活動(dòng)成為國內(nèi)設(shè)計(jì)界最早期的可持續(xù)設(shè)計(jì)探討。六年以后，CCSL-China項(xiàng)目又掀起了一次設(shè)計(jì)研討浪潮。

中國社會(huì)創(chuàng)新與可持續(xù)設(shè)計(jì)聯(lián)盟（DESISChina）成立僅有一年半載，但從籌備到目前似乎已經(jīng)走過了很長的路。由于篇幅和作者掌握資料的限制，在這個(gè)“大事記”中只能有選擇性的記錄一些事件，也不可避免地遺漏了部分重要事件。無論如何，這個(gè)大事記能反映DESIS-China的一個(gè)總體歷程，回顧過去，展望未來，相信它不論對(duì)于DESIS-China還是其它DESIS地方機(jī)構(gòu)都有一定的參考價(jià)值。
