How much
good can good design do? We'll find out on this week's Smart
City.
The Urban Omnibus
is a multi-media collection of insights from journalists, scholars,
architects, artists and citizens on the built environment of New York
City. We'll speak with Cassim
Shepard, who is the project director, about creating an
online conversation that reveals the choices that shape the city.
We'll also speak with Dr.
Richard Farson. His book,The
Power of Design: A Force for Transforming Everything says that
designers can make a
whopping impact on social dilemmas including poverty, prison
overcrowding and educational failure. We'll ask him about the
designer's role in shaping a brighter future.
