Design and the Elastic Mind

Back


To document MoMA's wonderful, monumental exhibit spanning design, science and technology, "Design and the Elastic Mind," we enlisted the help of the show's esteemed curator, Paola Antonelli. Paola speaks in detail about several of the exhibits, including "The Afterlife," a system for turning corpses into batteries, robots that act as personal climatizers and DNA origami. She also weighs in on her curatorial approach, addressing the role of the designer, her mission to shift public perception of design and how design revolutionizes our lives.

A vibrator it's an object just like a vase ou a pen are objects, and they all resulted of a project that ended up in industrial production. It has a function and performs it well. That's what design is about.
