Hugo Palmarola, Eden Medina, and Pedro Ignacio Alonso, curators of the exhibition, will delve into the research behind “How to design a revolution: The chilean road to design.” The talk will explore designs aimed at democratizing access to reading and music, reducing technological dependence, and overcoming child malnutrition, alongside the Cybersyn operations room, a pioneering project in the history of cybernetics. A journey into how, from Latin America and in the midst of the Cold War, an alternative path toward change and social justice was imagined and implemented through design.
