Mamava

In partnership with Jager Di Paola Kemp Design (JDK), graduate students from the MFA in Emergent Media program are working on social media strategy & an online launch presence for a project to find a solution for nursing mothers, which allows them to pump/nurse away from home in a comfortable and private environment. According to JDK's website, the goal of Mamava is "to be as expected and ubiquitous as the diaper changing stations in public restrooms; an undeniable, easy solution for businesses and municipalities who want to support nursing mothers. We see Mamava as a brand that will eventually offer multiple solutions - from better breast pump accessories, to stylish nursing chairs, to fashion - but first, our product needs to solve the problem of pumping/nursing away from home. We are currently addressing this by designing a kiosk for placement in offices or municipal buildings such as airports, conference centers, stadiums, etc." The work produced by MFA students on Mamava is still in preliminary concept stages and information on the project is limited but updates will be made as it progresses.
