RESHAPE 17 | Wearable Technology Competition. Wearables are becoming an active, supplemental skin that not only protect our body but also facilitate functions such as growth, movement, respiration and nutrition or rehabilitate the environment. Becoming a new medium able to regulate the relation between our body and its surroundings, wearables can now collect and exchange information producing dynamic outputs viagra générique prix. Reshape aims to enhance these impulses in fashion design, proposing a new challenge to makers and designers: RESHAPE 17 | Wearable Technology Competition | Programmable Skins. The proposals will focus on wearables as a prosthetic skin providing augmented functions. Reshape 17 goes beyond ubiquitous computing, towards integrated and holistic strategies with the objective to eliminate electronics, electronics, in favor of programmable materials. Discover more…

John Paul George and Me on Materiability

We would like to debut our news series for Reshape 17 with a retrospective towards the great success that John Paul George and Me, the Reshape 15 second prize winner, has encountered, being promoted as a featured piece on Materiability, one of the top research community platforms.  Designed by Costantinos Miltiadis and addressing the topic of interactive wearable textiles, ‘John Paul George & Me’ is a collection of wearable musical instruments for kids. Each T-shirt represents a specific instrument and all together form a rock ensemble. Through the seemingly “magical” clothes that produce sound by touch, the project brings to children an interactive musical game, encouraging and stimulating their musical interest as well as their collaboration with each other to perform music. The materiability research network is a community platform, an educational network, and an open materials database that provides in-depth access to emerging material developments for creative applications. Believing in unrestricted access to information, the platform is strongly driven by a community that finds equal inspiration in digital creation and physical making. This network brings together architects, artists, designers, students, scientists, researchers, and others who share a common fascination with smart, programmable, and digital materials. Much like Reshape, Materiability strives to bring together a community of digital research, aiming to ultimately come a paradigm shift in the 21st century.
