A new exhibition exploring
design facilitating human interaction with digital technology opened this
weekend at the Museum of Modern Art in New
York. The exhibition, titled Design and the Elastic
Mind, contains a series of works that highlight organic modeling, interaction
design, nanotechnology, data visualization, and new forms of social
communication.

Many of the exhibits are eye-opening visions of future intersections between
technology, design, and the human experience. At Organic, most of us live and
breathe this stuff and while our core business is web development we are
constantly exploring new technologies in an effort to entice and engage our
client’s audience. Creating intuitive and engaging digital experiences is a
skill that is steadily gaining recognition as an art form and since this form
of interaction design is a fundamental part of the work we do it’s nice to see
the medium on display at the MoMA.

Oh, and the online version
of the exhibition is a must see.
