Toolness II

Saturday, May 16th, 2009

Today I’ll participate in MoA talks Emeror’s New Clothes moderated by John Thackara and MoA09 curator Juha Huuskonen.

“Emeror’s New Clothes reflects on designer’s role: People no longer want to be passive consumers, instead they want to have an active role in searching for better solutions. How can designers open up their work process and allow access for others to participate? How can they be more active in carrying social responsibility? Rather than offering simple solutions,  this days talks will offer some tools for understanding these challenges.”
