NOW NEXT FUTURE conference 2012
by Mark English, AIA | Short Takes
A conference presented by the AIACC to explore enhancements in design thinking made possible through technological innovation.
Update:
The conference was a tremendous success. The Pecha Kucha format served to bombard us with fascinating information, and left most of us hungry for more. This Conference will become a yearly one, complementing the Monterey Design Conference. We hope to see you next year.

INTEGRATION + FABRICATION + SOCIAL-MEDIA
