KEYNOTE: Juhani Risku

Art and design are phenomena of higher abstraction of knowledge, skill, understanding and criticism –> New leadership begins

Who, what, why and how? Juhani Risku has studied a lot as an early riser. But, has also been an apprentice for fifteen masters in 400 MW turbines and generators; room, building and physical acoustics; Arts & Crafts; photography and many other fields. In the end, he defended his doctorate on the impact of art, design and creativity on startups. Now he is returning to architecture, to art and crafts.

Design and art offer a new approach to leadership, for example, because they offer a higher abstraction to creativity and practical work, with civic courage and an ethical attitude. Designers and artists are particularly industrious, and they take their work to the highest level without compromising on content and quality. It is also worth noting that the abstraction of design is in humans from birth – because art is an abstraction for adults.

Design and art form a powerful butterfly effect: Individual people rise as conveners to lead the future in the Fibonacci series 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55… … 17711, 28657…, allowing everyone to join in. Now begins a new hype, from this symposium.

Declaration: The designer–artist–craftsman is the strong leader who creates a new future from the front and with example, courage and ethics in data, energy and industry, but also in society and future systems.
