March 10, 2012 The Extension of Man - Hacking the Body - Prosthetics - Round #2, 10.30 am - 5 pm, ThingTank Lab, University of Toronto

Featuring Irene Healy, Clinical Anaplastologist,  Founder and Director "New Attitude" and Erika Biddle-Stavrakos, PhD candidate, York University, Toronto

Workshop Hosts and Coordinators: Nina Czegledy and Adriana Leraci

Thanks to the overwhelming response to our previous workshop, ThingTank Lab will be hosting a second instalment of “Hacking the Body”. What is a prosthetic?  We have seen artificial limbs for amputees and the Cheetah (R) foot for track and field athletes. You can have your fingertips replaced if you accidentally slice them off while making dinner. Cancer survivors can have their breasts rebuilt if they've lost them in treatment. But what if you wanted a super-human digit? Or what if you want to shave off minutes from your current marathon time?  Where is that fine line between restoring and enhancing?

March 6, 2012  Radical Design Thinking Workshop, Moving Networks: Designing Social Systems for Social Change with Greg Judelman, 2-5 pm KMDI, University of Toronto , Bissell Building 

Were does design fit into sustainable social innovation? And what is "design" in the context of complex systems change?

A global movement is emerging in leading-edge organizations in the public, private and social sectors that are using design to unravel and solve complex social and organizational challenges. Design is quickly moving beyond the conceptualization and organization of artefacts and experiences to describe the mobilization of creative ideas from diverse stakeholders in a broad range of contexts.

This workshop will share models and case studies of this work from around the world. We will engage in an interactive process to explore hands-on what it feels like to work in this way.

Inspired and intrigued by the Large Hadron Collider mega-project, Nina Czegledy and Marcus Neustetter set out to create a visual collider for the images and impressions they produce individually. By employing a personal approach to the Visual Collider, we challenge mega-projects such as the actual LHC, asking atypical questions concerning the experimental smashing together of information whether in the form of photographic light or protons.

July 16- 17, 2011 artMUSE MEDIA ART FESTIVAL, Bocholt, Germany

"From Industrial to post-digital revolution."

  , ,   

artMUSE is a European media art project, which’s aim is to joint contemporary media art to industrial history. It establishes ties between the industrial and the digital revolution and sites of industrial heritage from the past to future. The participating cultural institutions are European sites of industrial heritage, of local history, of contemporary and media art in Bocholt, Bitola, Budapest, Bremen, Delmenhorst, Gdansk, Ghent, Sofia, and Wroclaw. They are conjoined through the historical influences by the early European industrialization and its effect on the design, urban development, and art. From this point of change into the modern urbanity through the industrial revolution in the textile area we take a chance to look onto the next possible steps of future urban live, urban design, and textile-art.
