DESCRIPTION

These slides have been presented in December 2013 at the Master in Interactive Art of IUAV, Venice. The presentation focuses on our current cultural scenario in which a strong connection among art, design and science creates our contemporary emerging design and technical production.

    The Arts and Crafts Movement was largely a reaction against the impoverished state of the decorative arts at the time and the conditions in which they were produced. It stood for traditional craftsmanship using simple forms and often applied medieval, romantic or folk styles of decoration. It advocated economic and social reform and has been said to be essentially anti-industrial.

And you say to brick, Look, I want one, too, but arches are expensive and I can use a con-crete lintel. And then you say: What do you think of that, brick? Brick says: I like an arch.

  • BiohackersAlessandro Delfanti2013

    Biohacking is the practice of engaging biology with the hacker ethic.

    Biohacking encompasses a wide spectrum of practices and movements ranging from DIY body-enhancements to DIY biologists who conduct at-home gene sequencing.

    Biohacking emerged in a growing trend of non-institutional science and technology development.

  • Open access (OA) is the practice of providing unrestricted access via the

    Internet to peer-reviewed scholarly research.

    It is most commonly applied to scholarly journal articles, but it is also increasingly being provided to theses,

    book chapters, and scholarly monographs.

    Open Access Movement

  • Once the exclusive domain of industry experts, science is crossing over into wider society thanks to

    open-source tools, affordable technologies and an in-clusive community spirit.

    Able to uncover useful insights into product development, consumer behaviour and even big data,

    businesses should ally themselves with the new citizen scientist.

  • A Reaction diffusion model is a mathematical model which calculates

    the concentration of two substances at a given time based upon the

    substances diffusion, feed rate, removal rate, and a

    reaction between the two.
