Professor

Kobayashi Shigeru

Ph.D. in Media Design (Graduate School of Media Design, Keio University). Author of “Prototyping Lab 2nd Edition,” co-author of “Idea Sketch,” and supervisor of the translated book “Design Meets Disability.” He believes that technology, such as artificial intelligence, is not a neutral tool, an inevitable and deterministic force, but something we can interpret flexibly. He is exploring methods to enable diverse people to engage in discussions regarding technology with a hands-on approach. He has been the General Director of the biennial maker movement festival “Ogaki Mini Maker Faire” held in Ogaki City, Gifu Prefecture, since 2014.
