This past April, students from Carnegie Mellon University's School of Design donated their work to the Society for Contemporary Craft's Out of Hand Auction. Out of Hand: Remix raised nearly $100,000 and will go towards funding the Society for Contemporary Craft's annual operating budget which supports free exhibitions, art education workshops, and community programming throughout the year.
The School of Design wants to congratulate Deepa Butoliya for successfully defending her PhD dissertation, "Critical Jugaad: A Postnormal Design Framework for Designerly Marginal Practices" this week. Butoliya is the final member of the first cohort of recipients of PhDs in Transition Design from Carnegie Mellon University.
Words in Motion is a project that explores making visual the spoken or written word. The words on screen provide an interpretation of how words are spoken (their pacing, emphasis, volume) in a given setting or how written words may sound if read out loud. These dynamic "performances" are closer to stage and film performances than to static words on a page of text, and are a personal interpretation by an individual student. This example is from Joshua Eiten in 2015, when he took the course, Time, Motion & Communication.
