SUMMARY:Design Futures Forum
DESCRIPTION:Design Futures Forum 2024: Designing Our Collective Future \nWhat will be the role of design and designers in the face of rapidly advancing technologies\, a planet that is at the point of “global boiling”\, and a future in which the global life expectancy is increasing? The Design Futures Forum returns with an expanded programme this year\, examining the critical role of design in creating a better future in the areas of emerging tech\, sustainability and care. \n\n\n\nFeaturing thought leaders and practitioners from Singapore and around the world\, the forum will explore how people – from an individual scale to a larger\, societal one – and design intersect to make a positive impact and create a better future for all beings. Discussions will also be centred around the evolving question of what it means to be a designer in today’s highly complex world\, advocating for interdisciplinary collaboration across technology\, business\, environmental science\, health\, and inclusivity. \nAcross the two days\, the emerging tech segment will explore what it means to be human in a digital world. Within the fields of spatial tech\, AI\, experiential design and tech products\, speakers will present perspectives demonstrating that tech is no longer just a tool\, but an element in a new paradigm for how we live. \nWDO Member: DesignSingapore Council

SUMMARY:What Design Can Do Mexico 2024
DESCRIPTION:This year\, WDCD Mexico delves into the exploration of play\, collectivity\, and collaborative processes within design to showcase projects that address some of the world’s most urgent challenges such as climate change\, gender inequality\, economic disparity\, and the colonisation of creative thinking in an impactful way. This edition focuses on diverse initiatives and designers from different disciplines\, generations\, backgrounds\, academic formations\, and geographies. We will examine the powerful influence of design as a tool for transformation and how collaboration among various social actors gives us hope to reverse current environmental\, social\, and economic challenges. The three pillars of discussion will centre on ancestral knowledge\, exploring how to decolonize the predominant Eurocentric and patriarchal thinking in our civilization. We will also highlight voices that promote female creative thinking\, lastly\, we will analyse how circularity relates to collectivity. \nExploring play as a collective creative process\, the communal use of technology to address local and global issues\, and education as a collaborative process to better understand our contexts and differences\, creating opportunities and conditions for a cleaner\, more empathetic\, just\, and equitable world.

SUMMARY:World Interaction Design Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:#IxDD is IxDA’s annual event where we come together as a united global community to show how interaction design improves the human condition. Whether you’re part of an IxDA local group\, a company team\, a small design community\, or a larger organization\, come together to celebrate creativity and innovation in our field. \nTheme \n\n\n\nAdding dimensions in design and technology refers to integrating new aspects\, perspectives\, or functionalities that enhance the depth\, usability\, and impact of products and experiences. Here are some key areas where adding dimensions can transform design and technology: Artificial Intelligence (AI)\, Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR)\, Accessibility\, Sustainability\, Interactivity and Connectivity\, Social Impacts. \nWhat new trends or technologies do you believe have become indispensable in 2024 or should be added to facilitate and improve our work as designers and enhance user activities? \nWe believe that adding dimensions to design and technology is about expanding the scope of what’s possible\, creating richer\, more inclusive\, and forward-thinking products and experiences.\n‍

SUMMARY:Nike: Form Follows Motion
DESCRIPTION:With »Nike: Form Follows Motion« the Vitra Design Museum will present the first ever museum exhibition about Nike\, the world’s most revered sports brand. The exhibition will explore the company’s five-decade ascent from a grassroots start-up to a global phenomenon. The focus is on Nike’s design history: from the company’s beginnings in the 1960s and the design of its famous »swoosh« logo\, to iconic products such as Air Max and Flyknit\, and current research devoted to future materials and sustainability. Following the Olympic and Paralympic Summer Games in Paris as well as the European Football Championship in Germany\, the exhibition will emphasize the importance of sports for design innovation and social change\, while also shedding light on the almost mythical devotion to sneakers and sportswear in popular culture and social media. The exhibition has been initiated and produced by the Vitra Design Museum and curated by Glenn Adamson.
