But as designers, how can we tackle what lives and what doesnt? On this episode of The Futures Archive Lee Moreau and Sloan Leo go deep on how human-centered design doesnt always reflect humanity. With additional insights from David MacNeal, Juliano Morimoto, Spee Kosloff, Paula Antonelli, and Lindsay Garcia. There is a need for people to exert their authority, however there can be a necessity for us to exert our love. The thing that I hope we hold space for is: This is all follow because its not going to be resolved, and it shouldnt be.<br>
<br>That will create some form of stagnancy. Life is definitely about holding area for dynamism, changes and cycles.

And this week, whereas were still speaking about design, were going to be speaking about some pretty serious points. And so I need to make sure that everyone whos listening is conscious of that is in a good place when theyre listening. And [Zappify Bug Zapper](https://www.fnuasiracusa.it/2020/04/11/falso-ottimismo/) that i encourage you to test our show notes prior to listening to the episode so you understand the context of what were speaking about and put together ourselves a bit. Beyond that, I welcome you to the dialog and i hope you discover this dialog as highly effective because it was for us. And i thank you for listening. Welcome to The Futures Archive, a show about human centered design the place this season, well take an object, search for the human at the middle and keep asking questions.<br>
<br>… and I'm Sloan Leo. On each episode were going to begin with an object with energy. Today the article is the bug zapper. Well look at the history of that object from our perspective, [Zappify Bug Zapper](http://pandahouse.lolipop.jp/g5/bbs/board.php?bo_table=room&wr_id=8506147) as designers whove completed work in human centered design. Not simply the way it seems to be and feels and sounds and smells, but also the relationship between that object and the people it was designed for… … and with different humans too. The Futures Archive is delivered to you by the design staff at Automattic. Later on, well hear from Vanessa Riley Thurman, a member of Automattics Designer Experience Team. Sloan Leo, its great to see you again. Thanks for joining us. Lee, it's a thrill to be here. So Im wondering-for this particular episode, Im questioning if you can tell me a bit of bit about your historical past as a baby with bugs and insects. Where you this type of like, like kid that like loved the creepy crawly stuff?<br>
