Bits 'n pieces in new york!
Bits 'N Pieces is an interactive traveling exhibition exploring the rapidly advancing technologies and materials transforming the world of both digital and analog design.
Curated by Jan Habraken, Lucas Maassen, Alissia Melka-Teichroew, and Unfold, the exhibition will include furniture, architecture, jewelry, graphic design and products that "examine how design is both conceived and consumed in the post-digital age."
Participants include: Doug Bucci, Willem Derks, Edhv, Jan Habraken, Ilona Huvenaars, Joris Laarman, Thomas Lommee, MakerBot, Lucas Maassen, Alissia Melka-Teichroew (byAMT), THEVERYMANY and Unfold.
Over the course of its global journey, which includes stops at Strijp S in Eindoven, Netherlands, and in Genk, Belgium, the Bits 'n Pieces exhibition will mature based on context and content. The show's first component is a permanent collection of objects that travel to each venue and evolve based on feedback given by visitors from location to location, as is appropriate to work inspired by ever-advancing technologies. The second component will feature fresh pieces made by regional designers and introduced at each new venue to present the exhibition from a local perspective.
