Out of The Box: Analogue Methods to Bridge the Digital Divide
 
 Monday, May 17, 6 - 8pm

A talk describing the design and research process in developing new methods of teaching the elderly how to use cellular phones. Instead of creating new products, this project is aimed at using existing and familiar systems, such as books, maps and cards to teach complex digital devices. Clara Gaggero and Adrian Westaway of Vitamins Design worked with The Royal College of Art’s Helen Hamlyn Center and Samsung Design Europe to create three products intended to teach absolutely anyone how to use a phone.

Presented by the MFA Interaction Design Department.

132 West 21 Street, 6th floor
Free and open to the public. RSVP at http://svaixd-vitamins.eventbrite.com/
