Nathan Matteson. He has been working as a designer and educator in Chicago for over two decades. Currently he is on the faculty of the School of Design at De Paul University; is a researcher with the Center for Robust Decision-making in Climate and Energy Policy at the University of Chicago; and is a founding member of the design collective Obstructures. He is a ruthlessly collaborative designer whose work merrily ignores the perceived boundaries among disciplines. In his practice he investigates the feedback loop between decision-making and design; explores strategies for numeric optimization in design contexts; and wrings its metaphorical hands over the relationships among computation, intention, materiality, and immateriality.
