by Todd Melby, 7/27/08 • If you haven't spent time with Design for the Other 90%, the Walker Art Center exhibit on finding low-cost designs to help the world's poor, Thursday, July 31 is the day to get over there. At 7 p.m., the museum and Solutions Twin Cities are sponsoring "an evening of rapid-fire, media-rich presentations by Twin Cities designers working to bring sustainable solutions to the 90 percent of the world's population that has little or no access to ... water and energy." Yikes! That's a long sentence. Thursday's presentations will no doubt be more to the point. There's more information here.
