Unexpectedly we were approached by the MoMA to show Atlas Gloves (potentially the cheapest work to ever be presented there) in the upcoming exhibition titled Design and the Elastic Mind and in the catalog that would accompany it. The exhibition will highlight examples of successful translation of disruptive innovation, examples based on ongoing research, as well as reflections on the future responsibilities of design. Of particular interest will be the exploration of the relationship between design and science and the approach to scale.

The gloves will be shown (unfortunately not as a complete installation). We hope this would get people interested about trying it out, and ideally envoke the discussion we’re interested about the potential of low-cost hacks to debunk the exclusive might of expensive technology.
