	Portfolios.com - Exhibitor Close-Up On Bruce Mau
		Bruce Mau is arguably the most public designer on the face of the earth.
		Bruce's studio is frequently called upon to make the fevered visions of these (and other) architects workable and understandable.
		And that begins with the sensitive ways in which Bruce views his creative team and the studio in which it thrives -- views that are entirely consistent with a man who began with the idea of operating a business in the "public good" and which could be used as the blueprint for any studio's success.

	Making a Map to a New World
		Mau's studio is a think-and-do tank that's housed in a sun-drenched loft space on the edge of Toronto's Chinatown.
		Mau supplied the vision -- a rough scheme that he concocted on a five-hour plane flight -- and then unleashed a team to research it, stretch it, flip it, break it, and otherwise workshop the hell out of it.
		Mau is attempting to reframe design in a broader cultural context -- and some people are put off by that endeavor.

		Bruce Mau: Well, I think one of the most incredible faculties that we have as humans is an extraordinary capacity to integrate and normalize almost anything.
		Mau: What you have is this kind of universal embrace of the car, to the point where Dean Kamen [creator of the Segway] told us, the average speed of a car today is eight miles an hour.

		Massive Change for all the work is Mau as decorator, embellisher and/or(reading between the lines)facilitator to their (each individual design) disparate lack of a "LAN" to communicate.
		Mau likes to twist and turn on his site through his various Manifesti that his labour is more - more towards art - deep and meaningful and without money as catalyst for pen to paper.

		Bruce Mau can spend little or no money at all in the effort and the people who sign up get to be part of a great project and have a great experience.
		I can't speak of any personal experience, but it seems like it would be a great place for students straight out of college, they are probably not going to get paid well anywhere they go anyway, so they might as well build up their resume.
		I have a great deal of respect for Bruce Mau and the work produced by his studio, but this Institute Without Boundaries business, as far as I'm concerned, is not cool.

	ArtForum: Cover guy - Books - Life Style by Bruce Mau - Review
		Like a total solar eclipse on a partly cloudy day, Mau's anxiously awaited book astonishes and frustrates by turns: Even when the clouds give way, the sun stands missing in all its glory; it remains a study in obfuscation made magnificent by shiny trim.
		Mau began with Lartigue's photograph Grand Prix de I'ACF, Automobile Delage, 26 juin 1912, admired for its seizure of matter in motion in multiple time frames--momentary, situational, and historical.
		The place to befriend Mau is "Life Theories," a grab bag of engaging writing on the discipline, spiced with guileless advice, wit, and arresting apercus.

	Dwell Magazine: Bruce Mau's Massive Change
		From his seat in the audience that night, curator Bruce Grenville seriously considered Mau's claims that design should be a force of change in the world, rather than something applied as an afterthought.
		While he began his career as a graphic designer, Mau and his team at Bruce Mau Design have worked on projects ranging from a new urban national park in Toronto to exhibits for a museum of biodiversity in Panama.
		As Mau admits, "The terrain is so broad, to get the big picture you've got to keep it pretty compact." But it also reveals that this is a communications project, a multi-media exercise in sloganeering and savvy image deployment.

		Mau’s 2001 book, Life Style, focused on shaping design’s role in individual lives, recognizing that ‘lifestyle’ in the post-war period had come to be defined solely in terms of consumptive patterns rather than class or occupation.
		Four years later, Mau makes Life Style seem decidedly modest with his latest project, Massive Change, in which he declares his capacity, as a designer, to ‘control and direct all emerging forces’- which encompasses ‘manufacturing, transportation, urbanism, warfare, health, living, energy, markets, materials, the image and information’.
		Posted by: VBG at March 7, 2005 03:52 PM It's Bruce's genius-napkin-scribble that started this whole Massive process of Change.

		Toronto Life: Bruce Mau on The Gardiner Expressway
		Bruce Mau is one of Canada's leading public intellectuals, an internationally recognized expert on innovation and creativity, and, according to The Globe and Mail, "arguably our greatest designer." He willfully ignores all professional boundaries, expanding the concept of design into intellectual territory it rarely dares to tread.
		Someone who is applauded for his ambition, humour and optimism, Mau has designed almost everything that can be designed: from books to bookstores; from office textiles and library signage to a museum of biodiversity with Frank Gehry.

		Toronto-based "design activist" Bruce Mau shared an hour and a half worth of thoughts last night with a nearly packed auditorium at Parsons The New School for Design.
		The Segway was brought out as one possible solution, and Mau showed his more pragmatic side when asked about its spectacular failure to deliver a transit revolution: "It just wasn't marketed very well."
		In his signature all-encompassing style, Mau took the Segway as one small part of a solution, noting that modern cities and towns owe most of their structure to the existence of the automobile, and that different modes of transport necessitate different structures.

		As our twenty-minute interview reveals, it was the product of an extensive collaboration between Bruce Mau Design and the Institute without Boundaries, a post-graduate research laboratory that Mau launched in partnership with George Brown-Toronto City College.
		Mau’s willingness to push the conventions of graphic design, and to look at the page as a site in the architectural sense, are characteristic of this mentality.
		The various collaborations between Mau and Koolhaas (both in typography and urbanism) are perhaps the clearest examples of the urbanism Turnbull alludes to.
