Design and the Elastic Mind
I love the title of this new exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art: "Design and the Elastic Mind". The exhibit is an example of how folks are trying to use design to capture technological and scientific change and "convert them into objects and systems that people understand and use."
Interesting to see how many try to come up with their own solutions verses those who tap into existing tools via mash-ups.
The Goolge Maps blog has a nice list of items in the exhibit that incorporate Google products:
You can also read a review and see a slide show of the exhibit at the New York Times.
