Katherine Moriwaki is a leader in creative technology and urban interaction design. In this episode, she explores how art, design, and technology can be powerful tools for shaping the future. Katherine discusses how education plays a crucial role in preparing students for the jobs of tomorrow, equipping them to navigate emerging tech risks, such as AI bias, and empowering them to design through a more inclusive lens. She also reflects on how her work brings digital media into public spaces to foster community engagement and how creative technology can influence social discourse and drive positive change. The conversation highlights the responsibility of future technologists and designers to use their work for good, offering innovative solutions to today’s most pressing challenges in urban life and beyond.
