John Maeda is an American executive, designer, technologist. His work explores the area where business, design, and technology merge. He was a Professor at the MIT Media Lab for 12 years, and then became the President of the Rhode Island School of Design from 2008 to 2013. He is currently Design Partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers where he advises startups on the business impact of design. He also serves on the Board of Directors of consumer electronics company Sonos and global advertising firm Wieden+Kennedy. Maeda was originally a software engineering student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, when he became fascinated with the work of Paul Rand and Muriel Cooper. Cooper was a director of MIT's Visible Language Workshop. After completing his bachelor's and master's degrees at MIT, Maeda studied in Japan at Tsukuba University's Institute of Art and Design to complete his Ph.D. in design. As an artist, Maeda’s early work redefined the use of electronic media as a tool for expression by combining computer programming with traditional artistic technique, laying the groundwork for the interactive motion graphics that are taken for granted on the web today. He has exhibited in one-man shows in London, New York and Paris. His work is in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Cartier Foundation in Paris. At RISD, Maeda led the movement to transform STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) to STEAM by adding Art. He claims art and design are poised to transform our economy in the 21st century like science and technology did in the last century. In 1999, he was named one of the 21 most important people in the 21st century by ''Esquire''. In 2001, he received the National Design Award for Communication Design in the United States and Japan's Mainichi Design Prize. In 2006, Maeda published ''Laws of Simplicity'', his best-selling book to date, based on a research project to find ways for people to simplify their life in the face of growing complexity. In 2009 he was inducted into the New York Art Director’s Club Hall of Fame, and he received the AIGA Medal in 2011. He is a trustee of the Cooper–Hewitt, National Design Museum.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title = Board of Trustees )〕 In 2015 he published the #DesignInTech Report〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Design in Tech Report )〕 to connect the investing world with the world of design and technology. ==Bibliography== * ''Redesigning Leadership (Simplicity: Design, Technology, Business, Life)'', MIT Press, 2011 * ''The Laws of Simplicity'', MIT Press, 2006. * ''Creative Code'', Thames and Hudson, 2004. * ''maeda@media'', Thames and Hudson / Rizzoli / Bangert Verlag, 2000. * ''Design By Numbers'', MIT Press, 1999. * ''Tap, Type, Write'', Digitalogue Co., 1998. * ''12 o’clocks'', Digitalogue Co., 1997. * ''Flying Letters'', Digitalogue Co., 1996. * ''Reactive Square'', Digitalogue Co., 1995. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Maeda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
