Design Thinking & Futurism Meet The Guitar | Ed Keller

Life With Strings Attached

Unsurprisingly, when you talk to someone who’s a designer, professor, writer, musician and multimedia artist, your conversation covers quite a lot of ground.

Ed Keller’s career and projects span an incredible breadth of work across many fields. Often with an interdisciplinary approach, he’s taught and run centers at prestigious institutions around the world, founded architecture firms, consulted with leading AI technologists, and had his work published in renowned journals and magazines.

Originally training as a composer and guitarist, Ed has always maintained a connection with the guitar in his work, from performing and recording his own compositions to running projects and shows exploring the limits of guitar design.

Talking with Ed is always inspiring and energising, and this week’s episode of Life With Strings Attached was certainly no different.
