The OWL project Workshop "What is your dream?"

22 May 2010

Danielle Wilde, an Australian artist and researcher into technology, will be holding two workshops on Saturday 22 May 2010 in Tokyo.

Currently a research fellow at the Ishikawa Komuro Laboratory Meta Perception Group at Tokyo University, and a PhD student at Monash University in Melbourne (Fine Art) and CSIRO (Materials Science and Engineering), Wilde asks the participants to make exploratory objects of their desires with simple materials: yarn, cardboard, plastic, fabric, paper. Materials and tools are provided. Additional recycled materials optional.

Exhibiting and performing her work in international contexts, and aiming to blur boundaries between performance, fine art, critical (technology) and interaction design, Wilde seeks to extend poetic and expressive potential by addressing the body's relation to satorial technologies. She aims to conceive of devices we cannot yet imagine we might be wearing. The Owl project is a collaboration with Kristina Andersen.
