Jon Brooks Portal 10/09/2011: Interview with Dieter Rams

"Although not a long read, by any means, I think this is one of the most insightful short Q&A's with Dieter Rams out there. In this interview he illustrates the importance of functionality in design over and above any aspirations to "art". Particularly resonant for me are his comments on the concept of clutter; how we need a little disorder to go with the order, in order for us to appreciate the difference."
Jon Brooks's Music For Dieter Rams (out on Cafe Kaput) and As The Crow Flies (recorded under his The Advisory Circle moniker, released on Ghost Box) are reviewed by Mark Fisher in The Wire 321.
