I would like to invite you to our next IxDA Face-to-Face meeting, to be held on MARCH 12th, 7:30PM:
As frog design celebrates its 40th anniversary, Mark Rolston, Chief Creative Officer, will moderate a round table discussion that will examine the tension between vision and pragmatism, conceptual thinking and craftsmanship. In today's economy, a vision is good, but to make a real impact, it must be brought to life. WHEN? March 12th, 2009 7:30PM WHERE?
