Event Details

Our senses evolved to equip us with the skills necessary for survival in the natural world. Rather than enhancing the functional aspects of products, I am interested in designing new sensory experiences in relation to the invisible. We know that animals have extraordinary abilities allowing them to sense information and perceive the world through sensory experiences far beyond anything humans will know. We call these Animal Superpowers.

MFA Interaction Design



The MFA in Interaction Design program trains students to research, analyze, prototype, and design concepts in their business, social, and cultural contexts. It explores the strategic role of interaction design in shaping everyday life, and intends to increase the relevancy of design to business and to society so designers can make a difference.
