our visitors next week
we are fortunate to be visited next week by two visionaries of craft: sergio dulio and leah buechley. a little about each of them:
sergio dulio is a prophet of mass customization for the shoe market, co-author of the recent Mass Customization and Footwear:Myth, Salvation or Reality? : A Comprehensive Analysis of the Adoption of the Mass Customization Paradigm in Footwear and frequent visitor to the medialab. you can read an interview with him here.
leah buechley is a master cyber-seamstress who totally rethinks the way technology is integrated into clothing. here is a video of her ‘bracelets,’ and you might want to visit her website, especially the do-it-yourself instructions she has generously made available.
