In this episode of Maker Life Stories, we have had the absolute pleasure of meeting with Joey Gottbrath from the Jacobs Institute of Design Innovation, located at UC Berkley. The Jacobs Institute for Design Innovation is UC Berkeley’s interdisciplinary hub for learning and making at the intersection of design and technology. They see design and technological innovation as integrally linked: innovation opens possibilities and extends the reach of design, while design links new technologies with human experiences and ensures that innovation truly benefits people and communities. Bringing together technical depth, design methodology, and a focus on societal impact, they aim to educate students who understand both the under-the-hood details that make something work and the big-picture context that makes something matter.   Host: Jerry Johnson Editor: Zane Crider Producer: Jerry Johnson Executive Producers: Judy Hunter, Jake Jacobson, Alondra Lopez, and Steven Sparkman Music: Empty Mind By Lofi_hour on Pixabay https://pixabay.com/music/beats-empty-mind-118973/
