Glenn Adamson: The Material Intelligence of Clay

An OnDemand Online Lecture

Jan 25, 2023


The 21st century has witnessed an upheaval in the material world, as the analog increasingly gives way to the digital. We need to better understand the implications—emotional, technological, educational, and cultural—of disengaging our hands from our brains. The new quarterly journal Material Intelligence aims to address this important issue, by providing deep dives into the worlds of various materials. Join us to hear from Glenn Adamson, editor of this new initiative. He’ll share insights about material intelligence as a way to connect across disciplines, and consider how ceramics might be viewed from this broad perspective.
