Santa Cruz Design+Innovation Center

The mission of the Santa Cruz Design + Innovation Center is to promote Santa Cruz as a globally-recognized design destination. Why Santa Cruz? Because we have a unique collective vision of design, inspired by the beauty of our beaches and mountains, Inspired by our youthful iconoclastic culture, and inspired by our commitment to innovation and sustainability.

It all comes together in Santa Cruz.

My first SC design+innovation effort is organizing an unconference for creative people to solve a broad set of problems: The theme is Innovative Solutions to Global Inequality. After May 1st, I'll call it a contribution.

Also, for what it's worth, I organize a Burning Man camp themed around Time Travel. Each year we put on a performance there: a Historical Preenactment, a "reenactment" of an important historical event yet to happen.
