    Purpose
    Our society is becoming more complex and diverse day by day. Finding a way to design the future with our own hands has become the fundamental problem for us today. To be creative in such a society, we must create our own visions, and design tools and methods to make those visions a reality.

    In our lab, we define a “Creative Society” as a society where people create their own goods, tools, concepts, knowledge, mechanisms, and ultimately the future with their own hands. Creation in this society is no longer limited to just companies and organizations, but is entrusted to each and every individual. In such a creative society, pattern languages are key media for supporting creative acts. A Pattern Language is a collection of information called “patterns,” which together works in a language-like structure to scribe out the practical knowledge related to a certain field of knowledge.

    The lab aims to seize the sprouts of the creative society, imagine its growth, and nurture it through actual practice. Members of the lab would either work on his/her own project based on their interests in a certain field, or they can work in one of the frontier projects offered by the professor. Examples of projects include investigation of new types of education, putting creative pattern-language workshops to practice, sociological analysis of open collaborations, analysis of the creative process, creation of tools to support creative processes, studying cultural differences with using pattern languages, or the creation of a pattern language in a new field. Of course, any other topic that you are interested in is welcome.
