2011 07 19 Sascha Nordmeyers Communication Prosthesis And More At Moma

Sascha Nordmeyer's prosthetic "smile simulator" tool will be part of MOMA's Talk to Me, a show that opens today. Looks great—and there's a blog where the curators have also cataloged their process of finding work to include. A whole database of interesting projects there, both under the checked tab and in the queue.

"Talk to Me explores the communication between people and things. All objects contain information that goes well beyond their immediate use or appearance."

"...Whether openly and actively, or in subtle, subliminal ways, things talk to us, and designers help us develop and improvise the dialogue."
