AIGA Nervous System Event this Thursday!
We’ve been selling Nervous System’s amazing jewelry since we opened, so we’re extra excited for the event we’re hosting this Thursday, March 18 from 6:30-10:00 pm. The latest in AIGA Boston’s Emerging Ideas series, Jesse Louis-Rosenberg, co-founder of Nervous System, will give a lecture on “New Technologies & Natural Phenomena.” He will discuss the creative process from nature, to computation, to design, to product. Following the lecture, we’ll be open late for shopping. And if that’s not enough of a draw, food from Bloc 11 and drinks from Harpoon Brewery will be served.
More details can be found here. There will also be a corresponding daytime workshop; the information on the lecture and event is listed below that.
And if you’re interested in computational design, Jesse will be teaching a class, “Computational Design: a new look at the natural world,” on the MIT campus starting on March 24. This seminar is a project-driven survey of techniques in computational design. The goal is to develop a broad understanding of approaches to simulation problems and how to translate these approaches to the tasks of design. During this survey of techniques, participants will be working to develop their own computational project. More information can be found here.
