Two friends of the FdA – Tara Hanrahan from Thinkdo Studio & Matt Rice from Sennep will be talking at the Wilson Road, Lecture Hall, Camberwell College of Arts on Wednesday 23rd November starting at 11am. The talk is part of a series of lectures from practitioners invited by staff at Camberwell. Tara and Matt were invited by FdA Course Leader, Derek Yates – a description of the talk is below.
'Designing to inspire, educate and provoke change – A talk on how communication and interaction can be put to good use. All design jobs are to some extent social, but there are some that have the opportunity to change how people think and act in relation to helping with, or raising awareness of, social issues. Communication designer Tara Hanrahan (of think/do and formerly of thomas.matthews) and interactive designer Matt Rice (of Sennep) will discuss a range of their work; from projects that generate simple positive actions, to far-reaching campaigns that influence policy. We aim to show that this needn't be an overly worthy or style vacant area of design, but an exciting space to explore how the right mix of graphics, materials, technology, interaction and play, can engage and persuade.'
