Design education is undergoing a profound shift. In a world where AI can generate images, interfaces, code, and even ideas instantly, the value of education no longer lies in producing outputs alone. What matters now is the ability to think critically, frame meaningful questions, work across disciplines, and create experiences that are emotionally, culturally, and socially relevant. At TACIT, we see mentorship not as teaching students how to use tools, but as helping them dev

Turning real situations into systems people can enter, act, and engage with deeply There is always a moment at the beginning when everything feels meaningful. The table is empty. There are no components yet, no rules to misread, no players to resist what you have made. There is only a question—often large, often generous, often carrying more weight than the game will ever be able to hold. This is where most Tacit games begin. With questions that feel important. And very often

Reflections on Experiments with TouchDesigner In recent weeks, we did some experiments using TouchDesigner , a real-time visual programming environment that enables interaction between human gestures, sound, and dynamic visual systems. Our interest in these experiments was not merely technological. Rather, we hoped to test a set of questions that have long been central to the discourse of modern design. The questions are simple but not trivial: Do these technological effects

Beeja, sprouting A seed rests in the soil without instruction.It carries no image of the tree it will become.What it holds is a direction. Given light, water, and time, the seed does not decide its form. It responds. Roots move downward. The stem moves upward. Leaves appear when the conditions allow them. What we later recognise as beauty is not intention, but consequence. Nature does not rush toward expression. It first establishes order. Creation, in this sense, is not an

We believe design as an act of connecting ourselves with reality in the process we may illuminate and liberate. It is as much an internal process to refine your own self. As designers and by designing, we hope to become better listeners, sensitive creators and responsible members of ecosystems. Everyday we engage with our collaborators who struggle in finding sense of current realities, meanings and connections with ever-changing cultural world. We walk together in discoverin
