Controversy

At the end of last month I spoke at the European Information Architecture summit in Berlin. I introduced my concept of Virreal Architecture and by doing this I challenged the IA community. This resulted in some very extreme feedback, both positive and negative; a controversy so to say.

Both kinds of feedback proved to be inspirational; it seems that the vacuum between the extremes creates opportunity/creativity. I'm not sure yet, but I think creating controversy can actually prove to be a useful method for getting things clear (at least in your own head).
