Manifestations 2018: Is technology your ideal boyfriend or a dominant creep?
From seductive and challenging, vulnerable or rather a bit bossy, and from caring to clumsy: during the DDW Manifestations will show the most human side of technology.
The Veemgebouw in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, will be the centre point of art, design and innovative technology from October 20th to 28th. Technological innovations sometimes fit like a glove, but can also be confrontational, problematic or unreliable. And we as humans are in turn shaped by all those new technologies.
That is something to reflect on for a moment, according to curator Viola van Alphen. “Nicer, more human technology is in all our interests – innovations that everyone benefits from, young or old, male or female, rich or poor.” She selected works from over 50 mostly young, recently graduated artists who shine a light the exciting interaction between human beings and technology in surprising ways. Discover a collection of designer tongues for instance that let you speak all the languages in the world, clothes that grow themselves from natural crystals, a comfort-bot, the handbag of the future, clothing that gives you an extra sense, teasing Artificial Intelligence and much more ‘unbelievable’ technological reality.
