When you go to the supermarket to buy vegetables, the prices are displayed. The final indicator of all the factors involved in growing the vegetable is its price. That price acts as a signifier. However, the price often changes. What causes the signifier to change? The reason could be the farmer, the climate, the distributor’s situation, or one of these factors might contribute. However, in today’s complex systems, another variable unrelated to vegetable cultivation could also affect the price, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The result of the interaction of these variables is the price. A change in the previous price points leads to a singularity in the ecosystem. Understanding what that singularity is and why it occurs can help us see the world differently. Depending on the analysis, we either take profits or identify the cause of losses. We should focus on singularities that alter the state of equilibrium. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Originally, the Louis Vuitton suitcase had no wheels. The ancient journey was the exclusive possession of the nobility and the rich. It was hard to go alone because there was a lot of luggage to travel with, so it was usually possible for people who could handle servants. Therefore, there was no need for wheels in the bag then. Popularized travel is a product of the late 20th century. When we look at the wheel of a suitcase, we have to be able to look at history and class together. And we should be able to see the essence of luxury goods. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
