Design Revolution Road Show Rolls Into Brooklyn

PopTech Social Innovation Fellow Emily Pilloton (her PopTech 2009 talk) is in the middle of a Design Revolution Road Show on behalf of her organization, Project H Design, visiting 35 schools in 75 days.

Design Revolution Road Show

On Tuesday, the Road Show Airstream was on the Pratt campus in Brooklyn, New York near PopTech Fellow James O’Brien’s Brooklyn Community Arts & Music (BCAM) High School, where he serves as Principal (his PopTech 2009 talk).

Some of his BCAM students visited Emily’s Road Show and learned about products designed to change the world, and Emily and James caught us up on what’s happened for them since they appeared on the PopTech stage in October:

More in Emily’s great blog post about Tuesday, and you can see the Design Revolution Road Show today in Syracuse and on the rest of the tour (through April 18th!) before the Airstream parks in North Carolina for its next project.

What is your favorite social innovation product?
