Is the internet "redesigning design?"
Landscape from a Dream
Paul Nash 1936-38
I am so happy to be joining Elle Decor.com's Allison Mezzafonte for a panel discussion on the internet's influence on Design- Is the Internet Redesigning Design? Each of the panelists offers a very different blog for any reader's pleasure. Of course my career as a designer is featured within this blog-but I blog for inspiration- what am I tuned into today?
The intersections of art, design, fashion, history. The use of language and the struggle to say what I am thinking- to offer opinions. For me, expressing opinion is of the utmost importance. For me- what else is the point, but that one is for another day.
The panel is in Miami at DCOTA-the Design Center of the Americas on this Tuesday the 18th. It will be a whirlwind day- heading off Tuesday morning and arriving just in time to take a seat on the 2:00 panel and head back home right afterwards. I can not wait to meet the other participants and return with all the conversation,

I just read about this over at Brooke's...how exciting! You all make for a very fascinating group and I just know the discussion will be extremely interesting. Can't wait for the recap.
ReplyDeleteHave fun...

This is brilliant news! Congratulations...how I wish I could be in Miami to cheer you on! Will be cheering happily from another sunny state....xxxooo v
ReplyDeletecongrats! wish i could be in attendance!
ReplyDeleteOh - this would be absolutely fascinating! I am really looking forward to reading your report on what you all ended up thinking - so hopefully you will do a lengthy post to discuss it. As a fellow interior designer on the other side of the world {Melbourne, Australia} I am really interested in how the internet is both enhancing local design as well as broadcasting it. Or is it just all becoming global? - I don't think so, strangely.
ReplyDeleteHow fascinating that all of the bloggers are among my very favorites..........and I cannot wait to hear. I am planning my own blog...with great trepidation........how dare I?
ReplyDeleteI have no idea......I just know I must!
Please discuss......and report......and don't forget anything!!!!!!!!

A beloved mentor is beyond good. Mine gave me my life in many ways. Lovely picture of you and thank you for your very enjoyable blog which keeps reminding me that there is more to life than science.
ReplyDeleteI think it sounds like an intriguing venue. I'll be very interested to hear the discussions. Hopefully you will report back.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, very well deserved...
ReplyDeletecan't wait to hear your perspective, wise one...
ReplyDeleteYay, Little A!!! OMG, did I overdo the Xpoints? (xpoints, BTW, are my own invention!) Seriously Gayle, this is wonderful, how grand to receive the recognition you deserve. "Redesigning Design"--sounds pretty cutting edge to me. The Past, with all its accrued delights of glamour, style, and wit, will have its advocate in you, and that edge will never be the same!
ReplyDeleteHow did it go? Great panel. I bet you had fun.
ReplyDeleteYes, I did have to miss it due to weather locally. boo hoo. pgt
