Re-FREAM Call 2020
Apply until September 30, 2020
Hasta el miércoles, 30 de septiembre de 2020 a las 23:59
This supercollision of ideas will give way to unforeseen ideas and a new aesthetic that is human-centered, inclusive and sustainable. Re-FREAM is a pillar of the STARTS Programme (Science + Technology + Arts), an initiative of the European Commission under the Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.
PROJECT
Selected artists and technologists commit during a nine-month period (part face-to-face and part online) to a co-research and co-create process together by using Re-FREAM’s Art/Tech Collaboration methodology on specific technology challenges.
Artists and Designers will be asked to re-think their work in a more scientific way. Vice versa, scientists will be required to re-think their research in a more artistic way. Both groups will benefit from mutual learning and empowerment.
CHALLENGES
The integration of electronics into textiles enables new potentials of how we communicate in the future with each other in the post-smartphone era and to find new ways of interaction between the human body and its environment.
Traditionally, the predominant use of textiles as fashion materials has led to the development of 2D pattern-making methods for dressing the complex shape of the three-dimensional human body. Nowadays, digital design tools allow us to easily design and 3D print complex shapes for the human body.
Nature works in cycles - nothing is wasted, everything is reused. In contrast, the textile industry operates in a linear way, leading to extreme wastefulness and pollution.
ADDRESSED TO
- Artists and designers to co-create innovative fashion concepts together with researchers using novel production technology.
- Artists and designers from all over the world are welcome to submit their proposals for the second call.
