pSuperdesigner Kenya Hara, the founder of the Nippon Design Center’s Hara Design Institute, is curating a rather interesting cross-border exhibition called “A HREF=”http://www.dmh.org.il/exhibition/exhibition.aspx?pid=6catId=-1#anchor_gallery” Senseware/A.” Held at Israel’s Design Museum Holon, the exhibit defines Senseware as “matter that stirs the human creative instinct and awakens the desire to make things.”/p

pExplains Hara, /p

blockquoteThe aim of this exhibition is to deliberately bring a broad sweep of creators and technology people into contact with attractive new artificial fibers, encouraging them to think of applications that make the benefits of the material visible. [The exhibit] attempts to show ideas for the future of manufacturing, exhibiting new environmental membranes derived from artificial fibers in order to share them with the world at large.

p…I invited 15 creators and 2 companies to participate, comprising people working in architecture, interior design, product design, art direction, and media analysis, together with an automaker, a high-tech domestic appliance manufacturer, a flower artist, and fashion designers./blockquote/p

pHere’s a video preview of an earlier iteration of the exhibit held in Japan:/p
