MODE: Motion Design Education Summit, Virtual Conference

Motion design is an ever-evolving discipline, spanning design and the arts. Live video streaming, gaming, and virtual environments have enabled us to connect with others during times of isolation and physical distancing. Our social interfaces, conferencing apps, and digital collaboration tools enable dynamic and interconnected exchanges across space, time, and continents. Motion encompasses every digital touchpoint on our devices, providing feedback and shaping understanding across complex ecosystems for human-computer interaction. It is a vital part of the interconnectedness of the human experience, but now more than ever before.

Our central theme for June 2021 is (re)connect and examines the impact of motion design and motion literacy in current contexts, and explores future notions. Motion design and motion-based technologies have played a monumental role as part of a universal pandemic shift. We’ll have some stories to tell. Join us as we reimagine, redefine, and (re)connect—MODE 2021.
