Details, Details: Ellen Lupton's Design Rant at NC State on 11/1 · Oct 30, 03:57 PM
Thursday, November 1, 2007
NC State / College of Design
Burns Auditorium, Kamphoefner Hall
Directions
Reception: 7:00 – 7:30PM
Program: 7:30 – 9:00PM
Learn what’s wrong with dumb quotes, hotel rooms, roller bags, the food pyramid, and more, much more. Ellen Lupton is obsessed with promoting design thinking and design practices to general audiences: writers, artists, kids, working fathers, and radical housewives. The D.I.Y. movement is part of the future of design; it is affecting every intellectual industry, from politics and journalism to music and rocket science. How is it affecting you? Designers are becoming evangelists of their own expertise, as well as breaking into countless new fields themselves that once were protected by barriers of professional knowledge. Today, anyone can be a designer (if they try)—or a publisher, pundit, rock star, or filmmaker.
