    October 9th, Berg Gallery 05-105, 4pm

    Kevin Klinger is a Associate Professor of Architecture in the College of Architecture and Planning at Ball State University and is the Director of the Institute for Digital Fabrication (IDF). The IDF acts as a catalyst for interdisciplinary applied research and industry immersive education serving as a conduit between students, design professionals, and the manufacturing sector. Professor Klinger is the author of numerous conference publications and has lectured widely in universities and industry organizations on the topic of digital fabrication in architecture including the 2007 Architectural Record Innovation Conference “Architecture in an Age of Transformation” and he is co-editor of the book Manufacturing Material Effects: Rethinking Design and Making in Architecture. Through his teaching, Professor Klinger takes designers deeper into the complexities of making, assembly, and material formulation, encouraging new forms of collaboration with industry, challenging conventional methodologies, and suggesting a future in which designers are much more engaged in the total process of architecture.
