Promoting and introducing the Design Intelligence Award for global reputation

Overview

Design Intelligence Award (DIA) is one of the first international academic awards in industrial design, created to celebrate innovativeness and entrepreneurship. Hosted by China Academy of Art and located in Hangzhou where innovation is booming, DIA is not only an award, but also a channel to the Chinese industry network and infrastructure, as well as the Chinese market and business. Such a holistic approach sets the DIA distinctly apart from other awards programs, recognizing the role that design can play in achieving real change and creating a Community of Practice that is not found anywhere else.

DIC: Workshop “Design with Interactivity and Connectivity” at DAPI 2021

Design Promotion and IFIP TC14 WG7 “Art and Entertainment” will organize a workshop on the topics of “Design with Interactivity and Connectivity” at the DAPI 2021 conference on July 24-29 in Washington DC, USA.

The new industrial revolution driven by digital media, data, and the Internet of Things forms a key foundation of interaction and connectivity that has a great impact on the way people live, and the way businesses are organized. We are interested in the systems exhibiting both continuous (in physical and social spaces) and discrete (in cyberspaces) dynamic behavior, giving rise to not only new opportunities but also new challenges in designing products and services where human and technical aspects are massively intertwined.

Workshop @ Tsinghua University, Beijing, August 10-21, 2017

We are aiming to build performative musical instruments and installations that allow for GMIS principles to be implemented in a group setting. Overall, a networked multi-instrument setting will be implemented by using OOCSI as a communication layer, and Processing clients for sensors/interactive front-ends and MIDI
translation.

The music or sound will be generated by a MIDI-capable sequencer (e.g., Logic Pro X or Ableton Live) with multi-track audio instruments, effects and audio tracks – which is connected to the OOCSI-MIDI bridge. Processing serves as the basis for implementing interactive clients that might connect to external sensors such as Arduino-connected simple sensing modalities or complex sensors
such as Kinect, Leap Motion or else.
