Thursday, July 28, 5:30-7:30pm, at art gallery DSGN CLLCTV in Northside (4150 Hamilton Ave, Cincinnati, OH 45223)

This event is FREE to all. Four autographed copies of Design after Capitalism will be given out as door-prizes at the event.

Join us to hear Matthew Wizinsky discuss his new book: Design after Capitalism.

Matthew is an Associate Professor in the Ullman School of Design at the University of Cincinnati, a PhD researcher in Transition Design at Carnegie Mellon University, an Associate Editor for design journal Visable Language and Principal Designer for the consultancy studio junglecat.

In his new book Design after Capitalism, Matthew argues that the world of industrial capitalism that gave birth to modern design has been dramatically transformed. Looking at design through the lens of political economy, Wizinsky calls for the field to transcend the logics, structures and subjectivities of capitalism--to combine design entrepreneurship with social empowerment in order to facilitate new ways of producing those things, symbols, and experiences that make up everyday life.

Come hear strategies for applying these principles to the three layers of project, practice and discipline -- A practical set of guidelines for designers to use as a starting point. Matt will speak for 20 minutes before being interviewed by Garret Ollish, Co-Founder of Storyocity and AdClub Board Member.

This program will be held at DSGN CLLCTV, an art gallery located in the heart of Northside at 4150 Hamilton Ave, Cincinnati, OH 45223.

Bring along everyone that is engaged in advertising, design, media, production, public relations and all other related fields that support our endeavors.
