creating communities for collaboration

In my current position as co-director of InnovationSpace at Arizona State University’s Design School, I spend the bulk of my days working with students and professional and academic colleagues, reimaging what education can do as an agent of change. As I do this, I tend to find cool designs worth sharing. Sometimes, a lot of thoughts fly through my head. This is where these thoughts and ideas finally land. All opinions are mine and mine alone.

Designing for interaction does not have to live on screen. In fact, the best instances of interaction happen when you go old-school and let people ... interact with their surroundings.

In a recent re-installation of his 1949 Nowhere and Everywhere at the Same Time, artist William Forsythe hangs weighted bob points from thin string lines, and invites visitors to navigate through the resulting field without touching any of the bobs. The design is dynamically complex, made possible through a visually simplistic solution.
