[ ] fuse - objectified definitions in product design

Beginning with the many meanings and implications of the word, ELSEWARE began the design process for fuse in the fall of 2000. As momentum grew, ideas flew, and the word was broken down into several permutations for exploration, namely: confuse (Perry Dixon), defuse (Oliver Beckert), diffuse (Janet Villano), infuse (Joel Hoag), and refuse (Daniel Harper). These words and ideas served as both metaphorical and literal springboards from which the products of this show emerged.
In addition to the 5 core members, [ ] fuse showcases four guest designers and one guest photographer who individually interpreted the theme and presented work accordingly.
