Keynote | Making Massive Action Bruce Mau

Powerhouse and UNSW Arts, Design & Architecture

Visionary designer, author, educator and artist Bruce Mau is a brilliantly creative optimist whose love of thorny problems led him to create a methodology for life-centred design. Mau is based in Sydney for September with his partner, Bisi Williams, to launch Massive Action, their latest project, in collaboration with UNSW.

Across forty years of practice, Mau has collaborated on a broad spectrum of projects with the world’s leading brands, organisations, universities, governments, entrepreneurs, renowned artists, and fellow optimists. His most recent books are MAU MC24: Bruce Mau’s 24 Principles for Designing Massive Change in Your Life and Work and, with co-author, Julio Ottino, dean of Northwestern University’s McCormick School of Engineering, THE NEXUS: Augmented Thinking for a Complex World – The New Convergence of Art, Technology, and Science. He is co-founder and CEO of Massive Change Network, a design consultancy based in the Chicago area.

Moderated by Keinton Butler Powerhouse Senior Curator of Design and Architecture.
