Event Details

Wednesday, October 27, "The Currency Makers"

What once was unconsidered is now an explosion. How people consider and exchange value is shifting in ways creative and unpredictable. Not only is what we are exchanging of interest, but almost more so, how we are doing it is remarkable. These redefinitions are transforming neighborhoods, businesses, and the cultures all around us. As designers, do we have new responsibilities? As citizens, how and do we prepare? Hear from four experts who are leading changes in our own cities on the imaginative ways new currencies are shaping our world.

ABOUT THE MFA INTERACTION DESIGN PROGRAM AT SVA

The new MFA in Interaction Design is an inventive two-year program that trains students to intimately understand how design can affect human behavior, and to think more holistically about the products and services they’re creating. The program explores the strategic role of interaction design in shaping everyday life, and intends to increase the relevancy of design to business and society so designers can make a difference.
