Der weltweit größte Sportartikelhersteller Nike kommt ins Museum. Während das Unternehmen aktuell wirtschaftlich stagniert, ist seine Designgeschichte eine Erfolgsstory. Für die Ausstellung in Weil am Rhein hat Nike zum ersten mal sein Designarchiv geöffnet. Zu sehen sind viele Schuhe, aber auch die Technologie dahinter: unter anderem die Luftkissensohlen, die in die prägende Air-Technologie mündeten. Vor allem ist es eine Ausstellung darüber wie Produkte, Popkultur und gesellschaftliche Entwicklungen verschmelzen.

Welcome back to Fratello On Air! This week, we discuss thinning out our watch collections. It's a tough topic because only one of us has ever sold a watch! We're happy to take on the subject, though, because it's easy to pile up watches that see very little wrist time. For our listeners, the watch content begins approximately 23 minutes into the episode.Thinning out the watch collection is an idea that Balazs is comfortable with because he's done it! On the other hand, Mike has never sold or traded a watch and is finally thinking about doing so. Today, we discuss weaning down the collection, how to do it, and what to do with the funds. But first...HandgelenkskontrolleWe kick off our episode with a return to one of our favorite subjects, sneakers. Adidas has released a new collection of shoes and jerseys for Inter Miami 2024 and they're hot! Balazs made the mistake of sharing the news with Mike and now pastel Miami Dolphins-hued Gazelles are on the way to Mike's feet alongside a sweet retro-themed jersey. You can take the boy out of South Florida, but... Balazs also mentions the upcoming Nike: Form Follows Motion exhibit at the Vitra Design Museum in Germany. If you're visiting this exhibition, it's worth stopping at the Musée National de l'Automobile in Mulhouse, France. For the Handgelenkskontrolle, Balazs is wearing the new Nivada Grenchen Chronosport that Lex briefly covered when it debuted. Expect a hands-on review soon! Meanwhile, Mike is enjoying his trusty Citizen BN0220 in the Spanish heat, making good on his Best Summer Watches at Three Different Price Points recommendation.Thinning out the watch collectionToday, we thank our dedicated listener, Tristan, for his suggestion for an episode on thinning out the watch collection. We modified the topic slightly to discuss how to pick the watches ready for a new home and what to do with the funds. Balazs has more experience in this area and discusses how he recently sold a pair of two-tone Rolex Datejust models to help fund a watch he desired, the Submariner 5513. Mike has never sold a watch and is considering it. He has a target watch in mind and will begin stacking up watches in his collection for trade. We promise to report back on any progress!We hope you enjoyed today's show and thank you for the suggestion, Tristan! If you have any ideas for future episodes, please let us know!

Science fiction and design collide at the Vitra Design Museum in this week's episode. We also discuss Singapore development with correspondent Naomi Xu Elegant, as well as the ideas and legacy of Dutch landscape designer Mien Ruys.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Der Weltraum hat vor allem die Zukunftsvorstellung in den 60er- und 70er-Jahren geprägt. Schriftsteller*rinnen und Filmemacher*innen begannen damals, Science-Fiction-Szenarien zu entwerfen; die vielleicht bekanntesten, darunter natürlich die verschiedenen Star Trek-Serien. Darin entstand ein ganzes Design-Universum mit Innenausstattungen, die heute Klassiker sind. Irgendwo zwischen pragmatischer Form und bunter Fantasiewelt. Was ist vom utopischen Gehalt dieser Zukunftsdesigns damals geblieben und welche Ideen haben und brauchen wir heute als Gesellschaft? „Die Neugierde für das Unbekannte, für neue Technologien bleibt heute noch aus dieser Zeit“, meint Susanne Graner, die die Ausstellung „Science Fiction Design“ vom Vitra Design Museum mit kuratiert hat. Auch im Design zeige sich diese Neugierde in einer immer wiederkehrenden Lust, mit neuen Materialien zu arbeiten und Formen auszuprobieren. Allerdings war damals das Zukunftsbild sehr positiv konnotiert, sagt sie. Es wurden Utopien geschaffen. Heute hingegen gehe es mehr um zukünftige Dystopien, erklärt Friedrich von Borries, Professor für Designtheorie und kuratorische Praxis an der Hochschule für Bildende Künste in Hamburg. „Die Szenarien, die wir heute haben, sind beklemmender und weniger begeisternd“, sagt er. Statt um die Entdeckung fremder Planeten geht es heute um die Eroberung einer virtuellen Welt: Das Metaverse. Eine tolle Möglichkeit für Gesellschaftsentwürfe, sagt Susanne Graner. Das, was das Metaverse gerade anbiete, sei „echt nicht aufregendes“, kontert Friedrich von Borries. Denn es gebe reelle Räume, wie zum Beispiel historische Orte und Gebäuden, die „aufregendere und abgefahrene Räume als das Metaverse erzeugen“. Wie schaut für euch die Zukunft aus?

Utställningen Garden Futures - Design som växer på Vandalorum handlar om trädgårdens historia, samtid och framtid. Samtidigt växer trädgårdsdesignern Piet Oudolfs parklandskap fram runt museet. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Under pandemin var det många som upptäckte att det här med att så tomatfrön eller förodla dahlior, faktiskt kan vara ett livsinnehåll, nästan som en passion. Även på ett av världens mest kända designmuseer, Vitra i Tyskland, blev personalen helt trädgårdsbesatt. Och de bestämde sig för att skapa utställningen ”Garden Futures - Design som växer” bland annat om formaspekten på trädgård. Men den handlar också om den politiska och sociala dimensionen av trädgård och om framtidens matförsörjning och klimatarbete.P1 Kulturs reporter Nina Asarnoj åkte till Värnamo för att besöka Vandalorum och det första som mötte henne där var ett växande konstverk. För världens kanske främste trädgårdsarkitekt, holländske Piet Oudolf, har förvandlat åkermarken runt museet till ett böljande blomsterhav… Eller det kommer att BLI ett blomsterhav snart i alla fall… med hjälp av trädgårdsmästare Gunhild Öibakken Pedersen och hennes 32 volontärer, alltså frivilliga trädgårdsarbetare.I reportaget hörs också museichefen på Vandalorum, Elna Svenle och Viviane Stappmanns, curator från Vitra Design Museum och en av dem som skapat utställningen.Utställningen ”Garden Futures – Design som växer” pågår på Vandalorum i Värnamo från den 27:e april till den 13 oktober 2024.

Eisenbrand, Jochen www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Fazit

In the past decade, the debate about the role of books in our increasingly digital world has been a hot one. This devotee of the printed form is unequivocal. She believes content online has simply pushed publishers to make better books.   Emilia Terragni is Associate Publisher at Phaidon Press, the world's leading publisher of books on art, design and culture. Phaidon turns 100 this year. Terragni has been there for 22, specialising in books on architecture, design, food, fashion and art, and is considered one of the most influential editors working in the field today.  Born and raised in Como, Italy, by a creative family where books were incredibly important, she ran away aged 19 to study in Venice. A PHD in fine art set her on the path to a career as a curator or art critic. But it was during her time in the archives of the Vitra Design Museum cataloguing the work of architect Mexican architect and engineer Luis Barragán that she met with Phaidon, and the rest is history.  Listen in as Vince and Emilia discuss working together on Nan Goldin's iconic photography book The Devil's Playground in 2003, the privilege of working with the prolific British graphic designer Alan Fletcher to his dying day, and being named The Queen of Cookbooks by the Wall Street Journal.  https://www.phaidon.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Christien Meinderstma is a Dutch designer who has a fascination with materials. She currently has an installation at the V&A, entitled Re-forming Waste, which shows new work based around her interest in linoleum, as well as technological advances with the material she has described as her first love, wool. Christien came to wider attention initially when she graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven in 2003, with a book that catalogued a week's worth of objects confiscated at security checkpoints in Schipol Airport. She followed that up a few years later, with PIG 05049, an extraordinary tome which looked at all the products made using a single pig. Her work is the collections of MoMA, the V&A, and the Vitra Design Museum. Over the years, she has won numerous Dutch Design Awards, as well as creating the award for the prestigious Earthshot Prize.In this episode we talk about: working alone; experimenting with linoleum; her family's history with wool; the importance of provenance; defining failure and success; not being interested in selling things or mass production; working with the city of Rotterdam to find ways to deal with its wool; collaborating with a ‘wobot'; designing like a journalist, the energy of Design Academy Eindhoven; and the unexpected uses of a  pig…We are delighted this episode has been sponsored by the Surface Design Show. The event of choice for architects and designers, it runs from 6-8 February at London's Business Design Centre and you can register for free at surfacedesignshow.com. We hope to see you there. Support the show

La exposición "Hello, Robot" en el Museo Vitra Design muestra máquinas inteligentes que no solo nos imitan, sino que incluso nos superan. ¿Aprenderán a sentir... y a reflejar esas emociones en el arte? Una posibilidad tan fascinante como inquietante.

Tobias Trübenbacher ist mit zwei Geschwistern in dem oberbayerischen Städtchen Bad Reichenhall aufgewachsen, nahe der Stadt Salzburg, inmitten von Bergen und Natur. Nach Absolvieren des Abiturs arbeitete er zunächst am Landestheater Salzburg als Statist und Hospitant, bevor er ein Studium für Industriedesign an der Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften in München begann. Nach fünf Semestern, sowie einem achtmonatigen Praktikum beim Münchner Designbüro Atelier Steffen Kehrle, entschied Tobias die Hochschule zu wechseln und setzte sein Studium an der Universität der Künste (Produktdesign) in Berlin fort. Tobias unterbrach das Studium während der Corona-Pandemie für eine knapp einjährige Tätigkeit als Junior Designer bei Studio Mark Braun, bevor er erfolgreich an der UdK mit seiner Abschlussarbeit PAPILIO absolvierte. Das Projekt wurde mit mehreren Preisen ausgezeichnet — unter anderem dem renommierten Braun Price 2021, dem James Dyson Award, dem Green Concept Award, sowie dem Deutschen Nachhaltigkeitspreis (Laudatio von Dr. Michael Braungart). In der Folge dessen war er als Designer bei Konstantin Grcic Design in Berlin tätig und arbeitete dort an verschiedenen Projekten, unter anderem für Vitra, Alpi, Plank, das Haus am Waldsee und das Concéntrico Design Festival. Um unsere Lebensräume und die damit einhergehenden Konsumgewohnheiten, sowie Material- und Stoffkreisläufe noch umfassender und fundierter (um-)gestalten zu können, absolviert Tobias seit 2022 zwei Masterstudiengänge in Architektur und Urbanistik an der Technischen Universität München. Daneben war er 2022 als Gastdozent an der Burg Giebichenstein tätig und ist 2023 als Gastkritiker in die Lehre an der Angewandten in Wien (Klasse Stefan Diez) involviert. Darüber hinaus arbeitet Tobias neben dem Masterstudium weiter an der Umsetzung und Weiterentwicklung seiner Straßenlaterne PAPILIO. Tobias ist seit 2017 Stipendiat der Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes und wurde durch den Rat für Formgebung als Deutscher Newcomer Designer 2023 ausgezeichnet. Ab 2024 werden ausgewählte Arbeiten in der Ausstellung „Transformers: Design und Energie“ im Vitra Design Museum gezeigt werden.

Una nueva pintura de Rembrandt hecha por computadora, fotos de personas que no existen... La inteligencia artificial genera posibilidades hasta ahora inauditas en el arte transformándolo por completo. ¿Oportunidad o peligro?

Over his 25 years as CEO of the Danish textile company Kvadrat, Anders Byriel has turned what was once a small, fairly dusty family design business into a global giant. Perhaps just as notably, he's taken a radical, and even artistic, approach to building and cultivating the brand's culture, partnering with designers such as Raf Simons, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, and Peter Saville; arts institutions like the New Museum in New York, the Tate Modern in London, and the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebaek, Denmark; and brands including Adidas Originals, Bang & Olufsen, and Jaguar Land Rover. On this week's episode of Time Sensitive, Byriel talks about why the best design has an artistic edge, the importance of making space for emotion within a corporate environment, and his deep and lifelong passions of poetry and photography.Special thanks to our Season 7 sponsor, L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Anders Byriel [01:04]Annie Ernaux [04:25]“Vermeer” at the Rijksmuseum [06:04]Kvadrat [06:56]Raf Simons [12:05]Peter Saville [13:24]David Adjaye [14:05]Thomas Demand [14:14]Louisiana Museum of Modern Art [14:17]Rosemarie Troeckel [14:20]Olafur Eliasson [14:27]Jean Nouvel [14:40]Massimiliano Gioni [18:06]Pipilotti Rist [18:39]Wu Tsang [19:07]“The Triple Folly” [19:33]Danh Vo [24:20]Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec [27:09]Giulio Ridolfo [30:41]“Materializing Color” [30:43]Adidas Originals x Kvadrat Stan Smith [39:03]Konstantin Grcic [43:06]Verner Panton [49:29]“Pop Art Design” exhibition at Vitra Design Museum [50:20]Robert Adams [01:03:08]Henrik Nordbrandt [01:03:52]Nan Goldin [01:10:39]Ocean Vuong [01:04:54]Ocean Vuong's “Time Is a Mother” book of poems [01:05:01]“Your Brain on Art” book [01:05:09]Hiroshi Sugimoto [01:11:37]“Ai Weiwei In the Elevator When Taken Into Custody by the Police” (2009) [01:12:00]Ansel Adams [01:12:44]Robert Adams's “Around the House” book [01:13:01]Robert Adams's "A Road Through Shore Pine" book [01:13:30]

34 days after it first formed at the far end of the Indian Ocean, record-breaking Cyclone Freddy made a repeat landfall on Mozambique as well as passing over Malawi, causing extensive damage and loss of life. Climate scientists Liz Stephens and Izidine Pinto join Roland to give an update on the destruction and explain how Cyclone Freddy kept going for an exceptionally long time. At the Third International Human Genome Summit in London last week, Professor Katsuhiko Hayashi announced he had created baby mice from eggs formed by male mouse cells. Dr Nitzan Gonen explains the underlying science, whilst Professor Hank Greely discusses the ethics and future prospects. And from one rodent story to another, SARS-CoV-2 has been detected in brown rats scurrying around New York sewers. Dr Thomas DeLiberto from the US Department of Agriculture gives Roland the details. When imagining a robot, a hard-edged, boxy, humanoid figure may spring to mind. But that is about to change. CrowdScience presenter Alex Lathbridge is on a mission to meet the robots that bend the rules of conventionality. Inspired by how creatures like us have evolved to move, some roboticists are looking to nature to design the next generation of machines. And that means making them softer. But just how soft can a robot really be? Join Alex as he goes on a wild adventure to answer this question from listener Sarah. He begins his quest at the ‘Hello, Robot' Exhibition at the Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein, Germany to define what a robot actually is. Amelie Klein, the exhibition curator, states anything can be a robot as long as three specific criteria are met (including a cute cuddly baby seal). With this in mind, Alex meets Professor Andrew Conn from the Bristol Robotics Lab who demonstrates how soft materials like rubber are perfect contenders for machine design as they are tough to break and - importantly for our listener's question - bendy. Alex is then thrown into a world of robots that completely change his idea of what machines are. He is shown how conventionally ‘hard' machines are being modified with touches of softness to totally upgrade what they can do, including flexible ‘muscles' for robot skeletons and silicon-joined human-like hands at the Soft Robotics Lab run by Professor Robert Katzschmann at ETH Zurich. He is then introduced to robots that are completely soft. Based on natural structures like elephant trunks and slithering snakes, these designs give robots completely new functions, such as the ability to delicately pick fruit and assist with search and rescue operations after earthquakes. Finally, Alex is presented with the idea that, in the future, a robot could be made of materials that are so soft, no trace of machine would remain after its use...

"Hello, Robot." An exhibition at the Vitra Design Museum showcases intelligent machines that not only resemble us, they're also more capable than we are. Will they one day start feeling emotion – and express it in art? A fascinating, if scary idea!

Éva est une artiste visuelle dont les travaux en media mixte comprennent une dimension photographique toute particulière. Au-delà de l'approche traditionnelle du media photo, elle intègre son vocabulaire technique et ses codes dans une oeuvre sensuelle dont les personnages sont littéralement faits d'amour et de crochet. Dans ce monde parallèle fait d'ironie et de sarcasme ses personnages nous partagent avec humour leurs sentiments dans notre ère moderne englobée par le virtuel et le digital. Un dialogue sur ces débuts photographiques, son rapport à la peinture et sa vision de la mise en scène. Son travail peut aussi actuellement être vu au Vitra Design Museum jusqu'au 5 mars (Hello, Robot. Design between Human and Machine) https://www.design-museum.de/en/exhibitions/detailpages/hello-robot.html Elle présentera aussi son travail à la NewCollectors Gallery à New York ( https://www.newcollectorsgallery.com/ - 191 Henry Street, NY 10002, New York) et le vernissage est le 20 janvier prochain!

It revolutionised domestic chores, signified modernity and has been made into packaging, textiles, electrical machinery but plastic has also contributed to our throw-away society. Clay is turned into bricks, cookware and used in industrial processes including paper making, cement production, and chemical filtering and increasingly contemporary artists are taking up the material. As exhibitions at the V&A Dundee and the Hayward Gallery in London display the different qualities and associations of these materials Lisa Mullen is joined by ceramic artist Lindsey Mendick, curators Cliff Lauson and Johanna Agerman Ross, and Kirsty Sinclair Dootson who studies materials in visual culture. Plastic: Remaking Our World is at the V&A Dundee. It features product design, graphics, architecture and fashion from the collections of the V&A and Vitra Design Museum, and other collections.

Anschließend war er ein Jahr freier Mitarbeiter bei der Produktentwicklung Roericht in Ulm. 1993 gründete er mit Oliver Vogt das Büro Vogt und Weizenegger in Berlin. Hier entstand unter anderem das do-it-yourself-Möbelprojekt Blaupause oder der Sinterchair, der in mehreren Sammlungen vertreten ist, wie dem Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein, der Neuen Sammlung in München, dem Marta Herford und dem Palais Schönborn in Wien. 2018 wurde der Stuhl auch als Miniatur in die Sammlung des Vitra Design Museums aufgenommen. Ein bekanntes Projekt ist außerdem das von ihnen kuratierte DIM–Die imaginäre Manufaktur in Zusammenarbeit mit der Blindenanstalt Berlin. Hier entstanden neue Produkte mit zahlreichen Designern wie u. a. Konstantin Grcic, Matali Crasset, Marti Guixé und Stephen Burks.

In this episode Emmett Scanlon talks to Adam Nathaniel Furman. Adam is a British artist and designer of Argentine and Japanese heritage based in London. Trained in architecture, Adam's atelier works in spatial design and art of all scales from video and prints to large public artworks, architecturally integrated ornament, as well as products, furniture, interiors, publishing and academia. _ As an activist, vocal defender of workers rights, particularly those of interns, and as an articulate speaker on and about architecture and design, there were many reasons to talk to Adam but it was the arrival of the book Queer Spaces edited by Adam and Joshua Mardel, and designed by Alex Synge, that finally prompted the talk. _ A book that is long overdue, it provides an accessible atlas or canon in Adam's words - of queer spaces, in part for queer students of architecture and design needing a frame of reference and references to support their work. But discussing the book also lead to conversations about Adam's own work, his experience as a queer designer, the challenges he has faced in practice, what he witnessed and reacted to in his architectural education, and what now might his new, true passion. _ When in Dublin, Adam gave a dense, intelligent, lucid and often funny lecture at the invitation of the Architectural Association of Ireland and the conversation begins discussing his first visit to Dublin and if humour was always part of his lecture repetoire. A trigger warning though, Adam does discuss forms of bullying in education and at times is deeply honest about his own experiences. _ ABOUT ADAM Adam is a British artist and designer of Argentine & Japanese heritage based in London.

Die Geschichte des Plastiks – eine Ausstellung im Vitra Design Museum. Chefkurator Jochen Eisenbrand erzählt vom spannenden Thema.

Alexander von Vegesack ist durch und durch Sammler. In einfachen Verhältnissen aufgewachsen, fing er schon als Jugendlicher an, auf Flohmärkten zu stöbern. Die Neugier und die Suche nach neuen Stücken führten ihn durch die ganze Welt, von 1989 bis 2010 war er Kurator und Museumsdirektor des Vitra Design Museum, das er mit aufbaute. Später verkaufte er einen Teil seiner Thonet-Sammlung an den österreichischen Staat, um davon die Domaine de Boisbuchet zu erwerben – ein riesiges Landgut in Frankreich, das jeden Sommer zu einem temporären Zuhause für junge Designer*innen aus aller Welt wird. Wir haben Alexander in seinem Zuhause in der Domaine besucht und an seinem Wohnzimmertisch eine Podcastfolge aufgenommen. Er erzählt von Essenseinladungen bei Ray Eames, von der „Fucktory“, seinem legendären Club in Hamburg, Thonet-Liegen am Strand von Malibu, seiner Freundschaft zu Billy Wilder und warum Feste so wichtig sind.Schnitt: Désirée Flegel

Eiko Ishioka was a graphic, costume, and set designer. She was born July 12, 1938 in Tokyo, Japan. Growing up, her life always fused western and Japanese culture. She graduated from the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music in 1960 and immediately started working for the largest cosmetic company in Japan, Shiseido. There she revolutionized the poster with her bold use of diverse models and progressive feminist messages that defied tradition. Ishioka later worked as a creative director for the department store Parco, producing iconic posters and television ads that broke with tradition and showed no products. In 1983, Ishioka left Parco and opened her own design studio. Once in her own practice, Eiko experimented more and more with surrealism as she moved into designing sets and costumes for film and theater. She won awards for her work on Mishima (1985) and Madame Butterfly (1988). Ishioka would go on to win the 1993 Academy Award for Best Costume Design (along with multiple other awards) for her incredible costume designs for Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 film adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula. It was Ishioka's life work to push up against tradition. The result is a stunning body of work worthy of inclusion in the design history canon.TIMELINE1938 –  b.

The remarkable story of how plastic became such a major player in the worlds of industry, medicine and design (among many others) before becoming persona-non-grata thanks to its intimate involvement in our current ecological plight is Shakespearean in its scale and one of the great tales of the last century. Laura Barton sets out to create a biography of this most multi-faceted and fluid titan of the manufacturing world, using the fabulously rich archive from TV, radio, advertising and film - as well as fresh interviews with contemporary experts including Rebecca Altman, Jeff Miekle, Charlotte Hale and Lauren Bassam. Plastic's story is one of of incredible power, hubris and more recently disparagement, but it is also endlessly complex and morally ambiguous; while plastic's negative impact on our environment is inescapable, as Laura will set out to describe it has also revolutionised the way we live our lives in any number of invaluable ways. Produced by Geoff Bird The exhibition 'Plastic: Remaking Our World' will be co-produced in 2022 by V&A Dundee, the Vitra Design Museum and MAAT.

In this episode we talk about spaces for leisure and socialising. The pandemic has radically altered our experience of public spaces for socialising. Now we are out of lockdown and spaces for nightlife and indoor socialising are open again, they have taken on new meanings and significance. So we wanted to look at how spaces for leisure and socialising have always been shaped by the cultural values, social norms and fashions of a time. The contributors to this episode are: Dr James Nott is Lecturer in the School of History at the University of St Andrews. James is a social and cultural historian, his book Going to the Palais: a social and cultural history of dancing and dance halls in Britain 1918-1960 was published in 2015 Dr Catharine Rossi is Associate Professor in Design History at Kingston University. Catherine's research interests range from craft to nightclubs and in 2018 she co- curated an exhibition titled Night Fever: Designing Club Culture 1960 to Today which opened at the Vitra Design Museum and toured various museums, most recently the V&A Dundee in May 2021. Dr Alistair Fair who is Reader in Architectural History at The University of Edinburgh. Alistair is interested in the relationship between architecture and wider social and political history, his book Modern Playhouses: an Architectural History of Britain's New Theatres, 1945-1985 was published in 2018 This podcast has been produced by the Society of Architectural Historians of Great Britain - SAHGB.

Archinect Sessions Next Up: Exhibit Columbus continues with sharing conversations with the recipients of The J. Irwin and Xenia S. Miller Prize. Today's episode is a conversation with Olalekan Jeyifous​​. Olelakan, who also goes by LEk, as I refer to him in this conversation, is a Nigerian-born visual artist with an architecture degree from Cornell​. His work​ has been widely exhibited at institutions including the Studio Museum in Harlem, MoMA, Vitra Design Museum and the Guggenheim Bilboa. His work ranges from large-scale art commissions in public spaces and festivals to commercial installations. His contribution to this year's Exhibit Columbus is a fascinating hybrid of physical and virtual space entitled Archival/Revival. The installation directly references exhibits at the Cleo Rogers Memorial Library, the site of the installation, from 1970, celebrating the Black and African arts.

Jerszy Seymour is a designer who first made a name for his industrial products. His practice soon turned into a much more experimental one that combines materiality, relationships, and setting up situations.While his work is included in numerous museum collections from MoMA to Centre Pompidou; he continues to make large-scale projects or storylines that follow an ethos of imagined societies towards designing the new world. He has also ventured into creating educational situations. He founded and is still directing The Dirty Art Department, a master's program focusing on applied arts and design at the Sandberg Institute.EPISODE NOTES & LINKSMagis is an Italian furniture and design company.

Di come sia importante risalire alle origini delle cose, di come l'artista può scendere dal piedistallo per fare un passo avanti verso la società. La comunicazione è un cappello molto ampio che abbraccia anche la pubblicità, ma parte da uno studio approfondito della realtà che poi vira su declinazioni molteplici. Parliamo dei limiti che sono benzina, necessari all'arte, e importantissimi per gli artisti capaci di accettare la sfide della storia.

Schrille Farben, Muster und Formen: so präsentierten sich die Möbel des italienischen Designerkollektivs „Memphis“. Die jungen Designer brachen Anfang der 80er Jahre bewusst mit den Konventionen des Industriedesigns. Provokant setzten sie mit dem Anbruch der Informationsgesellschaft darauf, die geltenden Gesetze des guten Geschmacks zu brechen. Computer eroberten den Markt, und die Welt wurde globaler. Popkultur und Postmoderne verbanden sich zu einem wilden Mix. Die Gallery des Vitra Design Museums in Weil zeigt eine kleine, aber spannende Ausstellung mit den wichtigsten Werken der Gruppe, die sich am Höhepunkt ihres Erfolgs,1987, wieder auflöste.

Welche Verantwortung haben Designer*innen der Gesellschaft und der Umwelt gegenüber? Wie kann Design politisch sein? Christian Zöllner spricht mit der Kuratorin und Designkritikerin Amelie Klein über Victor Papanek und die Politik des Designs, das Kuratieren von Ausstellungen und Objekte als Geschichtenerzähler. #sustainability #curation #designcriticism Amelie Klein ist Kuratorin, Autorin und Designkritikerin. Sie war auf dem Hurra Hurra Festival zu Gast und Teil des Panels „Matters of Sustainability“. Von 2011 bis Mitte 2019 arbeitete sie als Kuratorin am Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein, wo sie für mehrere internationale Wanderausstellungen verantwortlich war, darunter „Victor Papanek: The Politics of Design“, „Hello, Robot. Design zwischen Mensch und Maschine“ und „Making Africa – Ein Kontinent des zeitgenössischen Designs“. Klein war zweimal für den Kurator*innenpreis der Kunstzeitschrift „art“ nominiert, eine Auszeichnung für die besten Ausstellungen in Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz. Sie hat einen Master-Abschluss in Design Criticism von der New York School of Visual Arts und einen Abschluss in Betriebswirtschaftslehre von der Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien. Mehr als zehn Jahre lang arbeitete sie als Redakteurin und Journalistin, unter anderem für die österreichische Tageszeitung „Die Presse“ und Magazine wie „Abitare“ und „Metropolis“.

Sara Hendren was drawn to painting as a kid, studied it in college, then began to build her body of work and career as a fine artist, focusing on painting. Then, a series of experiences sent her in what, from the outside looking in, may have seemed like a very different direction, but from the inside looking out, what a completely organic and aligned expression of her blended passion to see, to create, to design and to be of service.Now an artist, design researcher, writer, and professor at Olin College of Engineering, Sara describes herself as a humanist in tech, focusing on the intersection between disability - or the perception of it - and what she calls the built world, or how the world is designed to either support or dismantle freedom and autonomy based on our bodies and their capabilities. And if you’re thinking “well, this isn’t about me,” you’ll quickly discover how well-intended, yet misguided that assumption is likely to be. It’s about all of us.Sara’s work over the last decade includes collaborative public art and social design that engages the human body, technology, and the politics of disability: things like a lectern for short stature or a ramp for wheelchair dancing. She also co-founded the Accessible Icon Project, co-created a digital archive of low-tech prosthetics, and her work has been exhibited at the Victoria & Albert Museum, the DOX Centre for Contemporary Art, The Vitra Design Museum, the Seoul Museum of Art and other venues and is held in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art and the Cooper Hewitt Museum. Her new book is What Can A Body Do? How We Meet the Built World.

Episode summary: “We are literally surrounded with data. How can we imagine this invisible dimension of reality that is shaping our future?” In the current environment, today's episode with an artist and designer Richard Vijgen (1982), whose work provides poetical interpretations of data and proposes a dialogue between the human perspective and the disembodied world of digital networks, algorithms and wireless communication, couldn't feel more timely. Richard has collaborated with film makers, artists, scientists, academic and commercial organizations to visualize and explore datasets on many topics that he discusses with us, opening a door to an invisible universe of data science, new media artists and collecting habits of experiential and digital art.About the speaker: Founded in 2009, Studio Richard Vijgen that is based in the Netherlands, has been evolving into an experimental practice that explores new technologies, interactions and aesthetics to visualize the invisible. Richard Vijgen's work has been exhibited in and collected by museums and arts institutions across the world including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Barbican Gallery, ZKM, Ars Electronica, Vitra Design Museum and Manifesta 12.

Eugene wants to talk about the product line Sorry I Have No Filter launched by Sagmeister & Walsh to raise money for its not-for-profit Ladies, Wine & Design. Ladies, Wine & Design was started two years ago after Jessica Walsh got to the heart of some of the hate she was receiving. Charis is interested in an exhibition at the Vitra Design Museum called “Night Fever” that surveys night clubs in history and how they were important places for culture to grow.

In this episode Andrew Clancy interviews Dr Cat Rossi. Cat is a design historian, with a socially and politically engaged approach to researching and communicating design history. Consistently provocative, insightful and nimble in her ability to weave multiple narratives, Cats work allows new light to be cast on the areas she explores. In this conversation she takes us us on a lyrical tour of the design history of Nightclubs, and their relationship to broader architectural currents, with particular emphasis on the post-war Italian radical tradition (Gruppo 9999; Superstudio et al). We also talk about the exhibition she is co-curating, and which opens in the Vitra Design Museum on 17 March 2018. This exhibition, entitled 'Nightfever' is the first comprehensive study of nightclub design, and will be travelling to the UK at some future date. https://www.design-museum.de/en/exhibitions/detailpages/night-fever-designing-club-culture-1960-today.html http://www.kingston.ac.uk/staff/profile/dr-catharine-rossi-267/ --------- Credits: Register is brought to you by the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London www.kingston.ac.uk/faculties/kings…-and-landscape/ Head of Department: Eleanor Suess Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Audio: Madoka Ellis

WELCOME TO THE FUTURE FORUM 2010 http://www.designhotels.com/future_forum_2010/welcome http://futureblog.designhotels.com/ The Design Hotels™ Future Forum 2010 will focus on "Hybrid Thinking" in the context of hospitality. Hybrid thinking requires much more than a multidisciplinary team – it requires a team of multidisciplinary people. Hybrid thinkers blend different skills and fields of thought to develop innovative concepts. Their ideas have the ability to shape entire industries from automotive to hospitality. Like-minded, visionary hoteliers around the globe have started to create hybrid properties that go far beyond the original purpose of simply providing a bed. Multidimensional hotel concepts focusing on authentic experiences are on the rise, combining elements from galleries, hospitals or film theatres with the classic idea of hospitality. Find out more at this year`s Design Hotels™ Future Forum. Please check back regularly for more information, or send us an email to: FUTUREFORUM@DESIGNHOTELS.COM to be added to our mailing list.
