"Quite clearly, our task is predominantly metaphysical, for it is how to get all of humanity to educate itself swiftly enough to generate spontaneous social behaviors that will avoid extinction."

Thought, Emotion, Feeling
Conceptual impressions surrounding this post have yet to be substantiated, corroborated, confirmed or woven into a larger argument, context or network.
"Thoughts are not ethereal. They are representations of matter and are encoded in matter. They have shape and weight. Abstract ideas are analogically built from more concrete sensory representations. The sense of self is built from self-representations. Thoughts are forms of information, and all information is physical and relational. It "feels" like something to "have" a thought and to "be" a self because we are that information, recursively reflecting on itself in an infinite regress."
"What is needed, Sacks observes, is a new theory that recognizes our mental life as more than the sum of computational processes - "a theory of self-organization and emergent order at every level and scale from the scurrying of molecules and their micropatterns in a million synaptic clefts to the grand macro-patterns of an actual lived life" Such a theory of mind can only be biological and not mechanistic - an increasingly convincing simulacra of consciousness yet remaining forever severed from the pulsating totality that is life."

Human consciousness, by virtue of observation, affords a meaning to the association between meaning and purpose - which in part is a function of the imagination. The concept of purpose, i.e. patterns of energy in motion, emerge as result of this unique relationship (observation). And it is about this same relationship that consciousness substantiates self as itself.
Design describes a particular network of energy in motion (EIM) that collectively represents something both large and small in scope and size. Fundamentally design is always binary in its context - from an observer's POV.
Design has a science and philosophy all its own, a language that connects the realms of Truth, Beauty and Goodness. Specifically, if you have to ask what design is, and like love - it remains inexplicable.
When observed within the constraints of a binary context, opinion and facts readily change in a moments notice, whereas knowledge and understanding require more time to evolve. In reference to human consciousness, meaning and purpose (design) engage our emotions and our thoughts. Balance is acquired in the form of a feeling responding to a growth in awareness, which rests mainly upon a form of one pointedness. Feelings create the hub about which meaning and purpose cycle and roll.
Waves of light, energy and information (LEI) stem from observation. Energy in motion (EIM), i.e. "feelings", originate and return to an "observer" for the meaning and purpose of observation, expansion and/or contraction. The process (design) stems from an intention, i.e. the making of an impression within and upon a quantum field of virtual potential and probability (QFVPP). Design consciousness describes the creative process as being innate to a specific agent. All that is aware is conscious. All that is conscious is aware. All that is conscious and in a sense "aware", is a matter of scale and magnitude made dependent upon the context and the observer. Design is an exercise in symbolic theater.
What is revealed in every form of Light? A substantiated reflection made apparent by means of its own impression upon the context being observed. Likened to rain falling upon ponds, lakes and oceans, both the context (consciousness) and observer (awareness) are One in the same.

Wisdom finds itself at the edge of the unknown - the only portal, the only goal. Some may describe design and the design process as the journey that leads closer and closer to the unknown.
Not all things have sense about self, yet all things in the Universe "feel". It's about the context and the parameters that surround it. It's about the connections and the correspondences that create a designed consciousness.
Hypothesis: all "things" are impressions appearing within a quantum field of virtual potential and probability, recognized and observed at its own level of awareness and/or dimension; patterned and always changing (evolving) within the framework of its own meaning and purpose.
Comment:
The concept of feeling, like time and space, is a variable made apparent within a particular context or framework, i.e. the dimension where an event or experience is revealed, proves apparent and made real. Analogy: Always look to Nature. To fly you must be a bird with the strength and skill to observe every landscape (context) filled with a large number and variety of obstacles, all unpredictably participating in and creating, change. Constraints are a given: food, water, nest, mate, flock, etc. Look for the signs and symbols when designing the unknown, enjoy the freedom innate in every experience. Know Design by how it feels.
There are fewer emotions than there are thoughts and feelings - each somewhat similar yet comparably different. What is of key importance to every design is how they match up and are linked. In other words, how are they designed? Its the impression that matters.

With every thought an emotion and every emotion a thought. Kama Manas

Feelings are the meanings you give to every purpose, thought and emotion.
Design, in correspondence with consciousness, harbors the knowledge and feeling that opens the door to the unknown. Design may not be able to entirely measure it, but it can readily show the Way.
Feelings are what is experienced in every exchange of energy in motion (EIM) between facets/agents/forms of mind and emotion. Feelings describe a vibratory current, i.e. a frequency of energy made apparent (conscious) by virtue of coherent resonance (awareness). These patterns are generated/created about a common source (observer), which in turn affects and gives measure to the context or framework being observed. These events and experiences appear as reflections upon the pools, lakes and oceans of Universe.
"Universe is the aggregate of all humanity's consciously apprehended and communicated non-simultaneous and only partially, overlapping experiences."

Jung called it synchronicity. Bucky called it synergy. Science calls it quantum entanglement. Technology calls it artificial intelligence. Philosophy calls it the theory of everything (ToE). Artists call it "a diverse range of human activity, and resulting product, that involves creative or imaginative talent expressive of technical proficiency, beauty, emotional power, or conceptual ideas."
