The Palo Alto Art Center's exhibition, IDEO Prototypes the Future, should be of interest to readers of this blog. Perhaps less than for the writer, as my mom is the curator, IDEO is a neighbor and I suggested the title. Bias aside, this is a great opportunity to learn about the innovative practices of the world's leading industrial design firm.
Podtech has a great series of podcasts to complement the show.
- Gallery Walkthrough With IDEO CEO Tim Brown
- Innovation Gurus Discuss Creative Process (symposium panel)
- Geoffrey Moore of TCG Advisors on Art of Prototyping
- Designing for Business with Diego Rodriguez
The exhibition runs through September 10th at the Art Center. Today at 2-4pm is design family day, where you can rapidly prototype with the kids.
