THE FICTION OF THE SCIENCE VIDEO

Guess who I ran into on the information superhighway today? My friend Robert Wong who runs Google Creative Lab in NYC, in this cool video by Gabriel Nussbaum for Melcher Media's Future of Storytelling Conference that took place earlier this month in NYC. 

We at ASKlabs are huge fans of the intersection of art and science, so naturally we love Robert's stories of the feedback loop between science-fiction and the development of new technologies. Remember Captain Kirk's communicator? It's in here.

We agree, interesting things happen when artists and scientists work together, as Alberta presented at Nerdnite Boston last month. As Robert says, "Awesome technologies need awesome stories." 

What can a graphic designer contribute to the invention of new technologies that will completely redefine the way we live? - A LOT.
