Massaging Media 2: Graphic Design Education in the Age of Dynamic Media
Seaport Hotel and World Trade Center
,
"All media work us over completely. They are so pervasive in their personal, political, economic, aesthetic, psychological, moral, ethical, and social consequences that they leave no part of us untouched, unaffected, unaltered. The medium is the massage."
— Marshall McLuhan and Quentin Fiore, The Medium is the Massage
McLuhan’s prophetic words from 1967 concisely describe the state of graphic design education in the age of dynamic media. No aspect of our field—pedagogical, theoretical, technical, or social—is unaffected by dynamic media.
Massaging Media 2: Graphic Design Education in the Age of Dynamic Media conference will gather a diverse group of presenters and attendees from around the world for a provocative conversation on how graphic design education is being affected by dynamic media.
Through keynote presentations, panel discussions, multiple-track speaker sessions, a working lunch, and a breakfast roundtable, we will focus our discussion on five key subject areas: pedagogy; practice; theory; future history; and the institutional.
