Cornell Center on The Death Penalty Worldwide
“McKenzie and his students were committed and enthusiastic partners who helped our law students explore new forms of advocacy to expose human rights violations."
Our first mission is to democratize digitality, making media, just as 19th-c educators sought to democratize literacy.
Our second mission is to democratize design, the building of collaborative platforms for creating and sharing ideas and passions.
StudioLab's third mission is to enhance shared dreaming and the creation of multiple processes of worlding and unworlding.
StudioLab courses, workshops, and collaborations draw on research in cultural, technological, and organizational performance conducted at New York University, University of the Arts (Philadelphia), Dartmouth College, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and now Cornell University.
"We have benefited so much from StudioLab's model of design thinking and stakeholder engagement! Student groups have helped us to refine our narrative, our website, and our pitch to donors and partners. It is also rewarding to be part of the journey of students in learning these skills."
