The Media Lab opened the doors to its I. M. Pei–designed Wiesner Building in 1985, and in its first decade was at the vanguard of the technology that enabled the digital revolution and enhanced human expression: innovative research ranging from cognition and learning to electronic music, holography, and more. Today, this same building in Massachusetts opens its doors to product designers, nanotechnologists, data-visualization experts, and industry researchers who work side by side to invent—and reinvent—how humans experience technology.
