Design and the Elastic Mind at MoMA

Penguin February 20th, 2008

MoMA:

Design and the Elastic Mind is a survey of the latest developments in the field. It focuses on designers’ ability to grasp momentous changes in technology, science, and social mores, changes that will demand or reflect major adjustments in human behavior, and convert them into objects and systems that people understand and use.

The exhibition will include objects, projects, and concepts offered by teams of designers, scientists, and engineers from all over the world, ranging from the nanoscale to the cosmological scale.

The exhibit runs from February 24–May 12, 2008 in The International Council of The Museum of Modern Art Exhibition Gallery, sixth floor.

Looks like a really interesting exhibit; a cross between technology and design. One of the exhibits will be the WizKid.

Science Daily:

On Wizkid’s screen you see yourself surrounded by a “halo” of interactive elements that you can simply select by waving your hands. If you move away or to one side, Wizkid adapts itself to you, not the other way around.
