Joshua and James will be presenting the work of the LAB at Rockwell Group at AFTERTASTE 3 the annual international symposium dedicated to the critical review of Interior Design. The conference runs April 3 & 4, 2009 but the LAB will be seen on friday April 3rd 3:00 pm – 7:00 pm presenting as part of a discussion on Sights: Environments and Projections. AFTERTASTE 3 the annual international symposium dedicated to the critical review of Interior Design, intends to provoke a discussion about the richness of the senses and their role in the comprehension of space and inhabitation. Experimental in character, this conference aims to consider projects and ideas that stem from investigations into the workings of the senses. Writer Georges Perec famously urged us to imagine separate rooms for taste, hearing, sight, smell and touch, yet one might also inversely challenge the primacy of visual perception by bringing the more peripheral and intertwined aspects of sensory experience into focus. AFTERTASTE 3 will feature accomplished designers, architects, and artists whose work specifically addresses the complex and still relatively unexplored role of sentient perception in the imagining of interiors.
Tucker recently presented at Silver Linings Innovation and the Demographics of Aging in Providence RI presented by Brown Enterprise Forum. He spoke on:How Design Can Reshape Our Lives. Find out how Universal, human-centered design can expand opportunity and enhance everyday life for everyone, including older people. Check it out.
