It was founded in 1996 by John S. Johnson with the purpose of introducing broad and diverse audiences to new technologies and media arts while simultaneously establishing new media art as a significant genre. The Center for New Design at Parsons School of Design's is an advanced research lab who's mission is to shape the design agenda for the 21st century by bringing together design, technology and business to collaborate on innovations in technology, materials, process and teamwork. In the past few years, the Center has worked with dozens of industry partners on projects that combined the use of new technology and materials in cutting-edge design applications. Projects ranged from a nationwide advertising campaign using state-of-the-art digital technology, to a 60 foot, outdoor sculpture in the town of Ghent, Belgium, to children's furniture made with sustainable materials from the rainforests of Guyana. The Center also hosts a lecture series that fosters relationships between the design community and design students by focusing on current issues and topics in art and design. This Fall 2001, the Center began research initiatives in four focus areas, Design for Social Change, Entrepreneurism, Online Interaction, and Wearable Technology.
