Overview

Navigating Next Models of Design Education. Curated by El Ultimo Grito & David Falkner. The Internet has an insatiable capacity to disseminate new knowledge far beyond the realms of traditional academia. With seemingly limitless expertise readily available to consume via the web, how can such knowledge be effectively appropriated/applied by disciplines that develop by exploiting the dynamics of group-based learning, making through physical interaction and practical collaboration? Pilots converts the Stanley Picker Gallery into a testing station for a series of experiments in design education, that seek to combine diverse web-based expertise from worldwide educational institutions - whether scientific, political, philosophical, creative, medical etc - with collaborative group activity based within the physical space of the gallery.
