ensemble - almost there

It will all have been worth it when you turn up and play with this stuff - and we will have experts on hand to ease you into the weird and wonderful worlds of experimental wearable technology and contemporary jewellery....

The installation of ensemble will mark the end of this project, with possible further showings at New Craft, Future Voices, the Six Cities Design Festival, and perhaps a cool retail site cum gallery in Glasgow - all to be confirmed. But this is the important one, because what you, the audience, do with the work here will inform our thinking for the next batch of crazy making.

Thanks to those who came along to the movement workshop in November, your input was invaluable, and of course to all those who donated their stories. I have really enjoyed developing the work around these contributions.

Some of the first round of pieces from the movement workshop, plus the first completed computational pieces, were exhibited at the Art School of the Australian National University (ANU) during ANAT's reSkin lab throughout January this year (left), and related developmental work has been shown at the Museum of Culture in Kyoto and is also currently in submission to be shown at Visual Art Scotland's annual exhibition in Edinburgh (below).

The research team are working hard on both the report to the AHRC, and on a clutch of papers for selected conferences and workshops - wish us luck!

While I'm here, I want to thank Frank and Vangelis in particular for all their hard graft in making this come together - here's to our big evening!
