Welcome to Braam Jordaan's Website

This was an open call for contributions from participants of Design Indaba 2009... The brief: Answer the question “What does the world need now?” by designing a superhero that addresses the needs of the world. As Bruce Mau said, Google does not have the answers for what the world needs now. So who, what and why is the superhero that the world needs now?

Are they caught up in the cliches of capes and underwear? Are they even human? Is it a manifestation of a collective subconscious? Is the superhero itself even conscious? And what is their superpower? But then, is that superhero just simply, you and me? "The Rubbbish Monster" was published in the 09 Q2 edition of Design Indaba.
