| Arch-OS and the The Ami-I-Able Network
|
Arch-OS participates in the The Ami-I-Able Network (see http://www.amiable.siat.sfu.ca/) event which is being held to coincide with Bodies in Motion in Banff (http://www.banffcentre.ca/programs/program.aspx?id=345) from June 25 to June 28.
The Am-I-Able Network for Mobile, Responsive Environments fosters a high degree of creativity by exploring interactive technologies, which can be made more aware of us and of us in our environments through researching and creating responsive spaces and wearable devices. Using mobile and sensor technologies, the researchers are creating and adapting clothing, furniture, and architecture to become communication devices that enable personal expression as well as multi-point communication amongst and between individuals and groups. Arch-OS was a partner in the original grant application. The project is funded by: Canadian Culture On-line, Canadian Heritage, The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC), NSERC, Canada Council, Canada Foundation for Innovation, Simon Fraser University, Banff Centre, TRLabs, Concordia University FRDP Grant, Hexagram Research Grant, Savage Media, Vincent Leclerc, Arkadiusz Banask, Future Physical, Daniel Langlois Foundation, FQRSC Research Grant.
