Emergent Transdisciplinary Design: In celebration of 100 years of experimentalism at The New School, we will explore the role that collective processes can play in remaking design teaching and learning in a time of complexity. The session will start with a short overview of The New School’s history of educational innovation. After that, students will lead their classmates and guests through a coordinated, small-group brainstorming session to explore new modalities of classroom learning, building on the concept of self-organizing systems. Can we collectively envision new forms of design education at The New School that are student-led, unplanned, and emergent?
