Tom Wujec on Design

Tom Wujec has agreed to be a speaker at the TEDxIBYork conference.  A fellow at Autodesk, Tom is just completing a book on design and is much in demand around the globe as a speaker on a variety of topics.  We're lucky to have snagged a day in his busy schedule.

Jane and I (the program committee for the conference) just had a phone call with him discussing his talk.  We came away very excited about his planned kaleidoscopic view of the intersection of design and the recent technology trends that are revolutionizing design, and just maybe giving us the tools to address the world's biggest problems.  Tom's extremely articulate, knowledgeable on a wide range of topics, and attuned to fitting his wealth of knowledge into the theme What in the World?

His bio has just gone up on TEDxIBYork.com, so take a peak for more details there.
