In the age of big data and sweeping multitudes, Dissensus takes the trouble of going into detail and locating distinctions that make all the difference. It transforms the uncertainty, contradiction and multiplicity of life into qualitative data, and produces quality designs. Dissensus adopts a relational research strategy because,
- Feelings, thoughts, experiences and behaviors only make sense within the web of relations people are involved in.
- Individuals take on various positions in each relation they are in: clients with brands; consumers with products; viewers with screens; voters with political parties; volunteers or users with civil society organizations; curious or uncaring in its relation with society at large.
- Individuals are never passive consumers, and consumption always involves a kind of production. The feelings, thoughts, experiences and behaviors of the individuals shape the product, image and strategies of the brands, screens, institutions and civil society organizations they are related to.
Dissensus forms partnerships with a wide range of persons and organizations.
