[Imec]

Innovative technologies applications
call for ideas
Timing #29
Links
Innovative technologies’ applications landscape is an infinite, intangible and often mysterious domain. “Artscience”, bio-art, nano-design, interactive design, experience design, alternative energy, applications on the borders of design and science emergency design and tools, eco-materials, biodegradable plastic, health & security. Science and creativity, science for all, open sources… Sustainable development needs R&D. Scientific research needs innovation and imagination: an ideal bridge to foster cross-disciplinary exchanges and spread out scientific and technologies development.
Art, Fashion, Design, Graphic Design, Architecture, everybody is welcome to generate “(in)tangible scapes” for our next book.

Download this call for ideas, and distribute it among your database, if you think your network could be interested.
