Goals

The Indiana University School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering—in close collaboration with Innovate Indiana, the IU Research and Technology Corp., The Mill and the Indiana IoT Lab—will host academic and industrial experts to discuss wearables and the Internet of Things (IoT) on April 25-26, 2019.

The symposium will bring together thought leaders and innovative product developers that design IoT wearables for fashion, athletics, medical, and military applications. Topics to be addressed include novel sensors and actuators, scalable and secure cyberinfrastructures, ownership of generated data, fashion trends in wearables, visual analytics of IoT data, and more.

★ Keynote talks and evening events are open to the public. Experts and practitioners from academia, industry, government, defense, retail, the arts, and other sectors are welcome.

    Philip Beesley, Living Architecture Group, Toronto, Canada, "Diffusive Architecture: Pluripotent Fate-mapping"

    This presentation offers a particular kind of form language rooted within and around our bodies. The work ranges from intimate couture to large public scales. I argue for the use of diffusive and dissipative forms in architectural design. Building with this renewed language, a series of immersive built installation projects will be illustrated, designed by the author in collaboration with multiple disciplines of the Living Architecture Systems Group.

    This approach stands distinctly against the Modern preference for stripped, minimal stages devoted to autonomous, objective freedom. Instead of autonomy, the language I argue for pursues tangible and unapologetically emotional involvement. In this discussion I will search for renewed kinds of emplacement, pursuing relationships affording subtle phenomena and expanded physiologies, embodying the forms of diffusion and dissipation. These projects approach living qualities.

    Control systems that integrate machininc curiosity are integrated with lightweight scaffolds that are designed to tremble and resonate with surrounding forces. Deliberate ambivalence is inherent to the approach, yielding qualities where things convulse and stutter in emerging vitality. I seek intense mutual relationships of exchange. Qualities from biology will be used as examples for this new kind of architecture. When we look at stem cells—cells that have not yet divided and specialized into dedicated parts of an organism--, we can see their pluripotency. That term to refer to the process by which a cell specializes, divides, and grows guided not only by its preprogrammed DNA, but also by the extra-cellular matrix manifested around it. There is a sense of being pulled into the future by the interactions with the chemical gradients in the extra-cellular matrix. The cell creates its own fate through its behaviour, in a way that is not fully preordained by its instruction set. I love this sense that there can be a deep, constant flux between circumstance, the vectors of prior causes, and the set of ingredients that are both inside and outside any given situation. This means that the future is a fundamental medium for our work.

    An undulating, quasiperiodic metabolism is evoked by the projects illustrated within this talk. The fields of this working method oscillate and include both centrally controlled and emergent, incremental models of organization.
