    tgm@MCBW: qved 2013 Conference on editorial design

    Has DIE ZEIT in print been put to bed for an eternal sleep? Confusion of Babylonian dimensions governs the battle for survival in the print media segment: In the content-is-king proclamation, it appeared for quite some time that survival is possible only in ephemeral digital media. Are iPad-App, KindleTouch and Instapaper the saviours of periodicals? Far from it: special interest and well made (customer-) magazines are booming. So far, there is no important conference for the editorial design segment in Germany. At the same time, this branch of the communication segment in particular is currently characterised by extreme turmoil: Can trends be identified? How can periodicals network on and offline content? Will iPad apps become the initiators of new magazines in print? Opening hours: Öffnungszeiten: Saturday, 23th Feburary: 10 am - 6.30 pm. (Start registration 9.30 am). Sunday, 24th February: 11 am - 6.30 pm.

    The magic of brand

    The architecture, decoration and design of rooms influences our moods and, in consequence, our thoughts. Everything that surrounds us, be it shape, colour or placement, has an effect on the way we act and interact. People forget details and correlations, what remains, however, is the feeling they create.

    mcbw moments – mindscapes for design

    Let us carry you away on a journey through the world of design on a visit to the special MCBW exhibition in the Alte Kongresshalle on Munich’s Theresienhoehe. 28 national and international enterprises (Exhibition) from the creative segment present their products and concepts covering the focal point topics of this year’s MCBW on an exhibition area of more than 1,000 square metres. Aspects of international design will be shown, for instance, in the exhibitions ‘Korea Design organized by KIDP’. The exhibition is also the venue for the presentation of the Bundespreis ecodesign 2012 awards: The projects shown impressively illustrate that environmental compatibility and good design are by no means mutually exclusive. In addition, the ‘mcbw lectures’ on all four days of the special exhibition take a closer look into the world of design with an ambitious programme of talks and prominent speakers. Located in the city centre, the Alte Kongresshalle is the perfect setting for the exhibition: The large halls, foyers, private rooms and the gallery of the now 60-year old, retro-futurist edifice offer ample space and make it the ideal venue for stimulating discussions, exchanging views and interaction: And that’s what the ‘mcbw moments – mindscapes for design’, the special exhibition in the course of the Munich Creative Business Week 2013, is all about.

    5 Fragen an Dr. Bernd Wiemann von deep innovation

    deep innovation - der Name ist vielversprechend. Für alle, die das vielleicht noch nicht gehört haben, womit beschäftigen Sie sich genau? deep innovation steht für langjährige Erfahrung in nachhaltiger Technologie-Entwicklung und Produktinkubation. Unser Schwerpunkt ist es, Technologien so zu gestalten, zu planen und zu nutzen, dass dabei Produkte und Lösungen entstehen, bei denen ein gesellschaftlicher und wirtschaftlicher Nutzen gleichermaßen berücksichtigt wird. Zum Beispiel arbeiten wir an der Frage, wie die Pflege von morgen aussehen muss und welche neuen Technologien hierbei sinnvoll zum Einsatz kommen können. Für die involvierten Designprozesse werden neue Methoden der Zukunftsgestaltung benötigt, also das zukunftsorientierte Einbeziehen von technologischer und gesellschaftlicher Entwicklung. Auch sind neue Kompetenzen bei der Gestaltung notwendig, die sich zusammenfassen lassen als transdisziplinäres Handeln, um die Vielfalt der sich rasch weiter entwickelnden Kompetenzen zur Produktgestaltung zu bündeln. zum Blog
