Excellent to have MIT alum
Leonardo Bonanni join me tonight on
MaximizingProgress.tv! Leo is
lead creator of
Sourcemap.org which maps product root-origins, calculates carbon footprints, and opens supply chains. He is now a postdoc at the MIT Media Lab where he is scaling up Sourcemap, deploying with multiple industry and civic partners, and getting ever more supply chains mapped! Leo also instigated one of the coolest and most relevant classes at MIT,
FutureCraft, on sustainable product design...
"...which applies emerging digital tools and processes to product design toward new objects that are socially and environmentally sustainable. [Included are the] principal themes of public, local and personal design, resources, assignments and student work. Novel ethnographic methods are discussed with relevance to informing the design of physical products. We aim to create a dialogue around these themes for the product design and HCI communities"
