Layouts, bots, user journeys...Who thinks about this stuff anyway? In this episode of FutureVision Conversations, host Tara Moore takes a closer look at the evolution of design, from analog inventions like the stop sign, to the intricately woven experiences we see in the apps we engage with every day. Jody Medich, futurist and design director at Singularity University discusses the role of designers as magicians and curators of the world around us, and her quest to make technology “speak human.” In addition, Rich Ting, EVP, Global Chief Experience Officer and Mike Rigby, VP, Executive Creative Director, Consulting, R/GA discuss how culture is impacting design and why every designer—from experience to industrial design—should have a seat at the table today.

Featuring:

Jody Medich - Futurist and Design Director at Singularity University
