This morning we talk with designer and Pam Daniels, a Clinical Assistant Professor and Design Innovator in Residence at The Segal Design Institute at Northwestern University. Our conversation takes place in Studio 5, where we talk about Daniels' project MEASURE, the first measuring cups where the shape itself indicates the unit of measure. You can learn more about this project on Kickstarter at http://ow.ly/7ed130jQ4rr which has a funding deadline for May 18.
In this conversation we talk to Daniels about her passion for design and cultivating makers, of all ages, through the work she does at Welcome Industries at Northwestern University with Brandon Williams.
