IDSA-CHI SQ1 CON

In the spirit of advocating for design education, the students of ADS felt they needed to further their mission and make their voices heard nationwide by organizing a conference specifically focused on design sketching. The planning committee, composed of seven Industrial Design students chose to call this conference Square 1 – a phrase that means to begin again after a dead-end or failure. This conference is meant to embrace failure, encourage process, and push creativity.

DISCUSSIONmeetup: Heads In The Cloud [ MKE ]

Are the days of lifetime employment gone in favor of the gig economy? Have we managed to go from “lone genius” straight through “collaborative teams” all the way to a distributed “hive-mind”? Is any of this a good thing, or is it tragic?

Or is there simply a glitch in the Matrix?
