explores the legacy and potential, the promise and power of design in improving the welfare of humanity. It originated as a collaboration between Bruce Mau Design and the Institute without Boundaries in which we researched the capacities and limitations of human efforts to change the world for the better.

There are two reasons to know more about Massive Change: to be changed and to make change. The events, the book, and our growing online community are short cuts to provocative thinking about the power and promise of design. Massive Change will change how you think about possibilities, for the world, and for your own family, community, company and country.
Instead of structuring our project around professional design disciplines, like graphic design and industrial design, we looked at design from the perspective of the citizen. Design economies are the regions of our lives that are being transformed, and in some cases invented, by new capacity designed to shape the world.
Every week, or at least quite frequently, we publish the Massive Change newsletter. Join the mailing list to keep pace with developments in the field of global design. Or review all the archived newsletters.
As part of the research for Massive Change, Institute without Boundaries team member Jennifer Leonard, created and hosted Massive Change Radio. Once a week she interviewed world leaders on the front lines of implementing Massive Change. The program was broadcast on the University of Toronto's CIUT 89.5 FM from September 2003 to June 2004. The entire season of multidisciplinary interviews is archived for download.
Massive Change in Action is an online educational project about our human ability to create positive change in the world through the power and promise of design. It is aimed at high school students and teachers who want to produce a new breed of change maker - citizens who think as designers. These people would be, in the words of inventor and philosopher Buckminster Fuller, a "synthesis of artist, inventor, mechanic, objective economist, and evolutionary strategist."
Published worldwide by Phaidon, Massive Change - by Bruce Mau, Jennifer Leonard, and the Institute without Boundaries - is not about the world of design, it's about the design of the world. Intended to provoke debate and discussion about the future of design culture, Massive Change is a modern illustrated primer on the new inventions, technologies, and events that are affecting human culture worldwide.

On November 18, 2006, the City of Chicago Department of the Environment and the Museum of Contemporary Art will produce the Global Visionaries Symposium: Massive Change and the City. This one-day event, framed by the City as a place for change, is co-moderated by Bruce Mau and John Callaway. The symposium includes conversations with global visionaries - including Stewart Brand, futurist Hazel Henderson, and biologist John Todd - whose work has had a seminal influence on the conception of the Massive Change project. Mayor Richard M. Daley will present each speaker with a City of Chicago Global Visionaries Award following the symposium.

Teachers and educators, are you finally ready for a change? You have successfully handled a classroom full of rambunctious kids all year and successfully taught them their lesson plans and how to do their ABCs and math.
