Vision-Driven Design - Hiroshi Ishii, keynote at AVI '26

Hiroshi Ishii, Jerome B. Wiesner Professor of Media Arts and Sciences; Associate Director, MIT Media Lab Keynote talk at AVI '26: International Conference on Advanced Visual Interfaces Venice Italy June 8 - 12, 2026 https://www.unive.it/avi2026/ Visions have always driven my design. In this talk, I trace the evolution of my design visions over the past three decades—from Tangible Bits to Radical Atoms—since joining the MIT Media Lab in 1995. I then introduce my latest, and perhaps final, vision: TeleAbsence, which moves beyond Telepresence. https://doi.org/10.1145/3811427.3815059
