Abstract

Understanding the parallel elements between the artistic desire that drives the design process and how telling stories drives new design elements is the focus for this preliminary investigation. Two iterations of one graduate design methods seminar experiment provide transformative connection examples. Brief readings, short-cycle live prototypes and story teller-audience interactions set the stage for design entrepreneuring.

Keywords: engineering design education, story, organizational aesthetics and entrepreneurial leadership
