DESIGN PROSPECTIVE (CCM)

PROFESSOR JIMENA ACOSTA

PODCASTS

The students  work is a collection of academic papers written by the students, and translated to an everyday language and to a podcast at Spotify. 

These podcasts gather the subjects and questions about design’s history that lead the syllabus and our collective discussions during the semester. Some of these questions are, Do women designers have had the same acknowledgement as their male peers? Has the LGBTQ community been included and represented throughout design’s history? What stories have not been written and why? 

We aim that with this informal format, that unpacks valuable content,  these design stories can reach a wide audience.

BACK

OFF THE RECORD

Emilio González and Nicole Hernández

Off the record is a limited podcast that aims to shed light on neglected or little discussed topics about minorities in the history of architecture and design in Mexico. The first episode tells about the ignored history behind the Torres de Satélite, while the second episode talks about queer art in postmodernism. The podcast focuses on Mexico so that local listeners can better connect with the stories and experience the topics discussed firsthand.

PAPAYAS CREATIVAS

Dora Montilla and Paola Fernández

Papayas Creativas is a podcast that seeks to generate conversations around design and its intersection with feminism. The encounter between the themes of human rights, creativity and design is the main focus of this program. We seek to generate conversations around the dynamics of power and the visibility of the work of women in this creative area.

DISEÑO CON DOBLE I

Isabela Hallivis and Ivette Elguea

In "Diseño con doble i" we address various topics around design in Latin America. We expose design as a tool for change, relating it to social and gender issues. In the first podcast, we shed light on stories about unrecognized women designers during modernism and postmodernism. In the second, we link the philosophical and cultural changes of the new millennium with today’s social design.

APOCALIPSIS NOW

Mariana Villeda and Tania Yunuen

Within this podcast we discuss Ecodesign; its origins, objectives and achievements. We approach design from an increased risk perspective to which we are being confronted, not only as designers but as living beings. Apocalipsis Now has developed out of more than just it´s creator's personal interest, but out of obligation we feel must be present in every single one of our professional actions.

INMERSIÓN DENTRO DEL MUNDO DEL DISEÑO

Adriana Verónica Arciniega Pérez and Martín Méndez

In this podcast, we talked about two quite relevant topics within the world of design. In the first place we talk about one of the most relevant designers in history: Mies Van de Rhohe, his entire journey, his style and the way in which he managed to become a benchmark in the world of design. Second, we talk about the internet of things (IOT) and how it is entering into industrial design, examples of which are smart homes, smart objects, even smart cars such as TESLA. Immersion within the world of design arises from the interest of informing people about issues related to industrial design and the importance in our lives.

DISEÑO CON XIMES

Ximena Portillo Díaz and Ximena Hernández Huerta

Welcome to "Diseño con Ximes". In this podcast you will find the stories of the great design couples and we will delve into the search for equality and recognition of women. Join us to discover the truth behind these great eminences and the injustices that were committed within their success.

CONEXIÓN GRÁFICA

Marla Iza De la cruz Zavala and María Fernanda Maciel

Conexión Gráfica is a podcast to raise awareness about other styles of art, techniques around graphic design and how it is important. It seeks to make known about these techniques that we live in our daily lives, create visibility about the types of arts, appreciate them and share them.
