About

All infrastructure is an expression of power.
Interfaces and technologies are social, political and ecological accelerants.

Solutionism at scale prevents true change.

The New Design Congress is an independent research group founded by Cade Diehm. Since January 2020, we've worked with a diverse range of voices to build new perspectives on systems, security and interfaces and how to respond to they way digital infrastructure affects the world.
