How do we deal with uncertainties and complexities in design educations? How do we reflect on our own practice and accept "bumpiness" in our processes and results? In this podcast episode Christian Zöllner speaks with the New York - and since a long time also Berlin based - designer and teacher Prem Krishnamurthy.
