IS-FOE 10 Dr. Argiris Laskarakis 2010 flexible, organic, electronics, science, research
The field of Flexible Organic Electronics is one of the most rapidly growing sector of the modern science and technology. Today, many resources and investments from government agencies, research institutes and local industries are devoted to the developments of materials, processes, instrumentation, equipment for flexible organic electronics. The IS-FOE is the Premier Scientific & Research Event in Organic Electronics devoted to gather scientists, engineers and industrials from all around the world and to exchange information and provide access to the latest developments of several topics covering organic electronic printable materials, device structures, system integrations, manufacturing processes, characterization adn monitoring, product applications and business opportunities.
Laura Beloff Laura Beloff wearable objects, networked installations, artist
With acclaimed international reputation as an artist, the Finnish-born Laura Beloff's artistic works can be described as peculiar wearable objects, programmed structures and participatory, networked installations. In her pieces she combines technology fluently with various mediums ranging from video to textile, from sound to sculptural and organic materials. Many of her works deal with individuals in the global society trying to adapt to highly complex technologically enhanced world, which is becoming increasingly mobile. Collaboration with other artists, musicians and computer scientists has been one of the features typical for her working methods.

MIT-Media Lab (MIT-Media Lab) 1985 researcher group, atelier, scientists, artists, engineers, lab designers, human capabilities, transform, everyday life, emerging technologies, research, MIT, doing, developing technologies, social, design, interaction, new possibilities
The MIT Media Lab applies an unorthodox research approach to envision the impact of emerging technologies on everyday lifeótechnologies that promise to fundamentally transform our most basic notions of human capabilities. Unconstrained by traditional disciplines, Lab designers, engineers, artists, and scientists work atelier-style in close to 30 research groups conducting more than 400 projects that range from neuroengineering, to how children learn, to developing the city car of the future. Lab researchers foster a unique culture of learning by doing, developing technologies that empower people of all ages, from all walks of life, in all societies, to design and invent new possibilities for themselves and their communities.
Nano Mates (Universitá degli studi di Salerno) 2007 research centre, university, nano technology
The Research Centre NANO_MATES (Research Centre for NANOMAterials and nanoTEchnology at University of Salerno) was established in August 2007. It is a research network within the University Campus aiming at accomplishing a strong synergy between scientists active in nanoscience and nanotechnology at the 8 Departements joining in the Centre.
V2_Lab Piem Wirtz (V2_Institute for Unstable Media) fields of art and culture, technical solutions, artistic research, projects, artists, wearable technology
V2_Lab is a place for artistic research and development (aRt&D). V2_Lab develops generic technical solutions that are relevant to the fields of art and culture. The results are published and made available under open-source licenses whenever possible. In V2_ projects, artists, technicians and scientists work together to develop technology for specific artworks. Additionally, V2_Lab offers technical and productional support to artists working with new technologies. An artist-in-residence program is one means of achieving this.
