Eyebeam is a not-for-profit organization established to provide access,
education, and support for artists, students and the general public in
the field of art and technology.  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.  Find out more information by visiting our website at
