Episode 5: Derek Ham
Derek Ham has taught design in a variety of contexts: architecture, graphic design, industrial design, computer animation, game design, and more. In each of these disciplines, Ham introduces play as an informal learning method to teach design. For Ham, play is an algorithmic framework for teaching creativity in design – one that has a foundation in shape grammars and allows us to think of designs as the outcomes of playful calculation. Ham is currently the department head of art and design, associate professor of graphic design and affiliated assistant research professor of architecture at North Carolina State University. In addition, he founded Logic Grip, an NC State official startup spun out of the College of Design’s Mixed Reality Lab (MxRLab). Before joining the faculty of the College of Design at NC State, he taught at the MIT School of Architecture, Harvard University's Graduate School of Design, and the Rhode Island School of Design.Ham's research interests span the areas of game-based learning, algorithmic thinking, and digital fabrication/making. In his current work, he investigates both virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality technology to find ways these tools can expand the possibilities of interaction design toward new forms of storytelling and scholarship. In 2017, Ham began creating an immersive VR experience of the 1968 Memphis Sanitation Worker’s Strike during the Civil Rights Movement. The I Am A Man VR Experience was released in 2018 (the 50th Anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination), allowing a first-hand experience of a pivotal moment in American history. The project was funded by Oculus and earned numerous film festival awards. A second project, Barnstormers: Determined to Win, is a forthcoming interactive VR experience of historical fiction providing an interactive narrative of the stories of players in the Negro Baseball League, such as Satchel Paige, Josh Gibson, and Buck O’Neil.+++more on Derek’s work:Logic GripI Am A ManMixed Reality Lab at NC State+++links to resources discussed in the episode:Forming Spatial Narratives lecture at MITThe Reflective Practitioner by Donald Schön

Episode 4: Shelby Doyle
Shelby Doyle, AIA is an Associate Professor of Architecture and Stan G. Thurston Professor of Design Build at the Iowa State University College of Design and co-founder of the ISU Computation & Construction Lab (CCL) and director of the ISU Architectural Robotics Lab (ARL). The CCL and ARL the result of Doyle's ISU Presidential Impact Hire to rethink digital fabrication and design-build. The CCL works to connect developments in computation to the challenges of construction: through teaching, research, and outreach. The central hypothesis of CCL and Doyle's work is that computation in architecture is a material, pedagogical, and social project; computation is both informed by and productive of architectural cultures. This hypothesis is explored, through the fabrication of built projects and materialized in computational practices. The CCL is invested in questioning the role of education and pedagogy in replicating existing technological inequities, and in pursuing the potential for technology in architecture as a space of and for gender equity.

Episode 3: Huiwon Lim
Huiwon Lim is an Assistant Professor of Graphic Design at Penn State University. He previously served as a lecturer at Iowa State University, which is where he earned his M.F.A. in Graphic Design, a graduate certificate in human-computer interaction, and a master’s degree in environmental graphic design. Lim's interests lie in visual communications, environmental graphic design, brand experience, human-computer interaction, user experience design, visualizing information, and exhibition design.During his time in Ames, Iowa, Lim taught undergraduate courses in graphic design, core design, and interdisciplinary design. He was also named a recipient of the Teaching Excellence Award at Iowa State in 2017. As a student, he won the Best of Category, Environmental Graphic Design Award at the 58th Annual Art Director’s Association of Iowa Design Exhibition in 2016. Lim is a member of AIGA and the Society for Experiential Graphic Design.A native of Gunsan, Korea, Lim has a bachelor’s degree in art and engineering from the Handong Global University in Pohang, Korea.+++more on Huiwon's work:hewantsdesign.com
