For two days from October 22 to 23, 2022, at the International Festival "Science and Art Hill 2022" held in Matsudo City, Chiba Prefecture, we exhibited our joint research project "Ambient Weaving".
Ambient Weaving is a concept born out of a joint research project between ZOZO NEXT Co.,Ltd., Professor Yasuaki Kakehi's Laboratory at the Graduate School of Information Science and Technology, the University of Tokyo, and Hosoo Co., Ltd. It refers to "textiles that express environmental information" and "textiles woven with the environment itself". In this exhibition, we premiered three works in the Kanto region: "Wave of Warmth", which changes design according to temperature, "Woven Glow", a self-luminous textile, and "Drifting Colors", which changes color multiple times using chromatographic techniques.
