Nathan Shedroff

Cruising at full speed on The Road to Macworld, we talk to Nathan Shedroff, Program Chair, MBA in Design Strategy at the California College of the Arts, who will be discussing “Learning from Science Fiction Interfaces” as a feature presentation at the show. Nathan explains how to contemplate the workings of science fiction tech from a practical standpoint, and how to use them as problem-solving inspiration. While he admits he’s saving the best information for Macworld, Nathan helps us understand how everyone from the Department of Defense to Intel are using specific methodologies involving science fiction to solve problems today…and tomorrow.
