TIME AND PLACE<\/strong>
\nWednesday 12 December 2012
\n6:30\u20138:30PM
\nTishman Auditorium – Parsons 66 West 12th Street New York, NY 10016
\n6:30-7:00PM Doors open & check-in 7:00-8:30PM Presentation & Discussion<\/p>\n

What does design look like in the future? The outcomes that once defined us (print, branding, packaging\u2026etc.) have expanded in the digital age, to include web, motion, UX and a growing list of others. But what happens when technology moves beyond the screen to merge with the physical world? What happens when our tools grow to include not just computers, but 3-D printing, open-source engineering and everything else? Join us as we meet a few of the talented designers who offer a glimpse into this future, revealing the possibilities of tomorrow\u2019s designer.
\nOn December 12th at Parsons, we\u2019ll hear from Zach Lieberman, who created a font with a car, invented a way for paralyzed artists to draw using their eye movements\u2014and created a way for that art to live in the physical world. We\u2019ll meet James Bridle, who mapped a neighborhood using balloons, illustrated military drones in a surprising way, and coined the term \u2018The New Aesthetic\u2019\u2014describing the visual language of our merging digital and physical space. Carla Diana\u2014who designs domestic robots, sentient kitchen appliances and most-anything that intersects the physical and digital spaces\u2014will reveal how she tries to live as close to the near future as possible.
\nThe evening will be moderated by Liz Danzico, who\u2014through her work\u2014and as chair and co-founder of interaction design at the School of Visual Arts, leads a new generation of designers to the future possibilities of our field.
