Nick Kapica, 2017 Off Grid Conference Chair and SEGD's Wellington, New Zealand Chapter Chair discusses the idea behind Off Grid, a new type of event for SEGD which invites you to go on a journey discovering new cities and cultures. You will observe how experiences are created in environments other than the ones you are used to. Finally all participants come together to discuss what you learned about experiential graphic design. It's an immersive real world learning experience.
While 2016 seems to be a candidate for worst year ever, from an Experiential Graphic Design perspective, we could not disagree more! SEGD set a new record in membership for the third year in a row and that is just the beginning.
I hope you all had a fabulous holiday and New Year and that you are getting back into the swing of things! 2016 was another fantastic year for our organization.
Some presentations are just classics, like Paul Mijksenaar's talk on Information Design which is offered by SEGD as one of the learning series courses.
For this part, I interviewed Gordon Kurtenbach. Gordon Kurtenbach is the Head of Autodesk Research where he leads a large research initiative on topics including human-computer interaction, graphics and simulation, environment and ergonomics, high-performance computing, and CAD for biotechnology.

For the third year, Communication+Place has featured the latest peer-reviewed experiential design research innovation coming from leading global academic institutions.
