Otto von Busch â The Design Comedy: The Descent Through Inferno
Design is a hellmouth of disappointment and a harrowing pit of professional failure. In this paraphrase of Danteâs Divine Comedy, Otto von Busch, a pitiful design professor, searches for the design workshop at Parsons. Proving inaccessible, the lost professor falls into despair. However, a recently fired workshop technician, Virgil, appears to know the way. They descend the crumbling corridors of designâs collapse, through the ruins and anguish of broken promises, failed research, self-absorbed design theorists, and hypocritical designers, to the very nadir of designâs inferno.
Introduction by Nicola Masciandaro
