Speaking
Addressing the Future of the City Symposium, Chicago, 2011
I speak frequently about my research, writing and practice involving some of the most pressing issues facing cities and design today. From what we can learn from the innovation taking place at the edges urban culture, to how we can create greater trust in the design of everything from the products that we use to the urban spaces we share, and the curious role hacking culture has to play in all of this. My talks combine first-hand experience gained from my own work and intiatives around the world with research and insight gathered from a robust international network of practitioners and innovators in numerous fields.
