Emilia Yang Selected as NEW INC Member

Stamps Assistant Professor Emilia Yang was recently selected as a member of the New Museum’s cultural incubator NEW INC. in the Social Architecture Track. Social Architecture track members reconstruct social and public space through design and architecture, and are supported by the Jonathan D and Mark C. Lewis Foundation.

The cohort of 74 new members working at the intersection of art, design, technology, and entrepreneurship will participate in NEW INC’s yearlong program, which includes a values-centered business education curriculum, mentorship, and opportunities to showcase their work to the public, including NEW INC’s annual DEMO festival at the close of the program year.

“We are thrilled to welcome our newest members to NEW INC’s expansive community, and we are excited to foster connections between their timely projects and initiatives,” said NEW INC Director Salome Asega. ​“Each year, NEW INC’s member cohort reflects what’s next in art, culture, and technology, and we are excited to support and learn from this outstanding group of creatives.”

NEW INC members have been recognized as emerging leaders in their respective fields, which traverse art, technology, design, fashion, architecture, urban planning, education, music and beyond. They have presented work at the New Museum, Sundance Film Festival, SXSW, Tribeca Film Festival, Cannes Film Festival, the Venice Biennale, the Whitney Biennial, Ars Electronica, and Coachella, and have won awards and accolades from the Serpentine, the Emmy Awards, Fulbright Program, Creative Capital, the Webby Awards, LG Guggenheim Art and Technology Initiative, Social Science Research Council Just Tech Fellowship, and Time Magazine’s ​“Most Influential People in AI.”
