About
Garment as shelter in public space – strategies for clothing and body: which is not primarily about a pure aesthetic design, but more about the analysis of bodily manifestations and postures, and about the development of an own artistic position.
We will work with Arduino microprocessor boards (Lily-Pads), there will be an introduction to programming (Arduino / C-Syntax) by Michael Markert. Tina Aileen Au (Hong Kong / St. Martin's College of Art & Design, London) will support us in the workshop-week (after four weekly introductive meetings).
