In the Spring of 2008, I was selected to curate, edit and design the College of Design’s student publication. This student publication serves as a venue for graduate students, faculty, alumni and professionals to express their ideas surrounding a selected topic. The publication, Collective Intelligence. Collaborative Design, focused on exploring collaboration and co-creation in design. Working collaboratively with two other designers(Rebecca and Alberto), I led the team to create a publication that explored the ways in which participatory culture is changing the design field. The book is comprised of three smaller books that are bound together by rubber bands. This flexible binding allows the audience to take apart and reorder the books if so desired, but more importantly it hints at the audience’s role with the artifact. The publication recently won an award from the AIGA Raleigh/Charlotte Boom! Design competition.

The Slow Food Learning Community
I finally got around to making movies to demonstrate how my prototypes for the Slow Food Learning Community works. For some reason it plays really fast the first time and then will play normally. Go figure.

Collective Task (Part 1) For those of you who don't know about this part of the project, it was a rapid exploration into how this might work. I just wanted to visually explore how a student might connect their analog garden work with the online collective tool.(sub text = it was quick and is kind of wonky)
