Joseph Weissgold
Joseph always had wanted to be an inventor and so found himself studying Industrial Design right out of highschool at Carleton University. As he studied, he became increasingly frustrated with many aspects of the current industry of mass production. Upon moving to New York, Joseph took two years away from product design to study consumerism, mysticism, urbanism, socialism, sustainability, and a multitude of other subjects. Because of his extensive experience working in informal education, Joseph is particularly interested in the reform of the education system. He hopes one day to call himself both a system designer and a game designer. He is currently part of the inaugural Class of 2014 in the MFA Products of Design program at the School of Visual Arts.
