  <title><![CDATA[IDEA Workshop (Improvisation for Design of Engineering Alternatives)]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>IDEA is a group of Georgia Tech researchers who apply the techniques of improvisational humor to catalyze technical innovation. While this approach has been used in non-technical innovation for years, they apply it to generating unique technical solutions to engineering design problems.

</p><p>Join Georgia Tech professors Pete Ludovice, Lew Lefton, and Richard Cantrambone for a workshop on using improvisation (the funny kind you see on “Whose Line Is It Anyway”) to improve engineering design.

</p><p>Bring your puzzling design problems to an evening that will be both educational and funny. Refreshments will be served.</p>]]></body>
