Insights 2020: Ruben Pater, Untold Stories

Unwilling to regularly tour overseas due to the outsized carbon footprint of global air travel, Ruben Pater originally proposed a pre-recorded talk, a format now more relevant than ever. Focusing on the ethics of design, this vital lecture will begin by tackling the unspoken realities of designers working remotely across the globe, and from there dive into social and political issues such as climate change, surveillance, and affordable housing. Pater is the author of The Politics of Design, a book which AIGA.com deemed “[…] the kind of literature that should be handed out to all students on their first days at art school, along with all the Albers, Berger, Benjamin, and Sontag that form the backbone of the design curriculum-an up-to-date assessment of the landscape through which all modern visual practitioners must navigate.”
