TED: Design – Paola Antonelli: Why I brought Pac-Man to MoMA
Fascinating talk on the role of design in science, culture, fonts, everything… “Interaction design”. Check out the “wind map” of the US – looks like a Van Gogh… and the really cool video games
When the Museum of Modern Art’s senior curator of architecture and design announced the acquisition of 14 video games in 2012, “all hell broke loose.” In this far-ranging, entertaining, and deeply insightful talk, Paola Antonelli explains why she’s delighted to challenge preconceived ideas about art and galleries, and describes her burning wish to help establish a broader understanding of design.
Paola Antonelli is on a mission to introduce — and explain — design to the world. With her shows at New York’s Museum of Modern Art, she celebrates design’s presence in every part of life.
