I dream of hybrids: the last move

We live in an era where adoption and use have become the main barriers for technological growth, and even though computational power is at our fingertips, each day, more power with less meaning is being used to rebuild our society.
Design is playing its last move to put in evidence the value of imagination and creativity in our industries and daily life. But to win, we need diverse minds capable of bending the use of technology to create new pathways of hope.
