Calendar Event: September 14, 2005 - September 16, 2005

Wearable Futures: Hybrid Culture in the Design and Development of Soft Technology

An Event organised by Smart Clothes Wearable Technology Research Group, University of Wales, Newport and PDR, University of Wales Institute Cardiff in association with SCAN (Southern Collaborative Arts Network)

14 - 16 September 2005, University of Wales, Newport, WALES, UK



This two day International conference will aim to contextualise the future potential of Wearable Technologies in a variety of fields ranging from military application to fine art.

Wearable Futures is an interdisciplinary conference, which aims to bring together practitioners, inventors, and theorists in the field of soft technology and wearables including those concerned with fashion, textiles, sportswear, interaction design, media and live arts,medical textiles, wellness, perception and psychology, IPR, polymer science,nanotechnology, military, and other relevant research strands.


We will be examining how some broad generic questions will be explored in relation to wearable technology including but not restricted to: aesthetics and design, function and durability versus market forces; the desires, needs and realities of wearable technologies; technology and culture; simplicity and sustainability; design for wearability; wearables as theatre and wearables as emotional ?tools?.
Key fundamental questions across the conference in relation to wearables are:

What is out there?
Who wants it?
What do they want?
How is it achieved?

Please submit an abstract of no more than 400 words in a Word document format by: 14th March 2005 to: hannah.topping@newport.ac.uk

For further information please refer to the conference website: http://artschool.newport.ac.uk/smartclothes

Abstracts and full papers will be peer reviewed and if accepted published in the Conference Proceedings. A selection from the full papers will also be considered for publication in a themed addition of the international journal ?A.I. & Society? (SPRINGER)

Abstracts may be offered as long papers (30 minutes includes questions), short papers (20 minutes includes questions) or for poster presentations. Poster presentations are particularly welcomed from postgraduate students.

Yup.. there are TWO events here.. the call for papers.. with deadline next month.. and the actual conference. When stuff is to go into calendar, posting both events makes a whole lot of sense.

.....And I have gotten some complaints .. we haven´t properly posted the deadline for the "call of entries!" or "call for papers" or whatever properly in the calendar..
It seems like there a s a whole lot of nonmembers out there who are using the calendar...

An artyfarty friend me told me a week ago that that this little website I am messing about with.. where I am posting all sorts of news and stuff.. I can just forget about it.. because all the nice stuff is to be found at electro-music.com anyway.. Shocked
He didn´t know that the little website IS electro-music.com

Cool

Your're kidding. That's funny. I guess we should put the deadline for the call for participation for electro-music 2005 on the calendar too...

Very Happy Nope, I am not kidding. Other sites have started to peel events and info and ideas off this site in order to have content themselves.

People who have noticed the kind of content we post here are sending me stuff. It has been like that for more than a year now.
