Why I haven’t written

November 13th, 2008 by noelperlas

I’ve written about “why I write about design” on this blog before. And it has been quite some time since I have written anything, more than a month. Like Micheal Beirut said in his Design Observer blog, “I write to slow things down again, to question my own premises, to force myself to pay attention…”   I guess this past month has been too fast.  Sometimes too fast to pay attention. I often get stunned by the amount of work that I need to do and I have yet to do.  There are days where I say, “hey! I did a lot today.” and times I say “damn, I wish I did more.” And a lot of those times work involes little bites of chores.  Update the site here, call a client there, fix a proposal here, meet with people there,  go do social obligations, etc.

But aside from all of those things, I have been in a certain mood lately… along the lines of questioning my career in design.  I am still in that mood, and today another event pushed me further into questions.    So let me slow things down a bit and try to explain this event… which I shall post in another entry.
