On 15th of September I made a presentation of “An Internet of Soft Things” project in the frame of Artful Spark, Furtherfield, London.

Artful Spark is a new series of quarterly events facilitating better communication and collaboration between creative technologists and arts/media professionals*

Artful Spark is not a sales pitch or a soapbox, but a way for people who might not know about projection mapping or haptic controllers to see technologies demo’d and discuss their potential for new ways of telling stories and making experiences.

The speakers demonstrate technologies – from how to turn them on to talking about their capabilities for creative content. They’ll also talk about their own projects and be frank about the hurdles they’ve encountered along the way.

For the inaugural event Artful Spark focused on Wearable Tech.
