Milan
2014:
a
series of talks will launch yesterday afternoon in Nike's Aero-static
dome at Palazzo Clerici, forming part of the FOMO
algorithmic publishing project organised
by Joseph Grima with Dezeen.
Three
afternoons of talks called On The Fly will kick off today withClemens
Weisshaar,
Atelier
Bow Wow,
Folder, Linda Fregni and Bart
Hess discussing
the theme of weightlessness in design.
The
talks will take place at Palazzo Clerici inside a dome created by
Arthur Huang, founder of MINIWIZ,
which uses Nike's Flyknit technology to create a temporary events
space.
They
are free to attend and each afternoon the speakers will tackle a
different theme related to design practice, presenting a minimum of
two images to accompany their talk.
During
the talks a real-time publishing algorithm – developed by Joseph
Grima's design research group Space
Caviar and
called Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) – will automatically create
written articles from live speech and social media streams using the
#OnTheFlyMilan hashtag.
These
will be collated in a PDF that will then be printed and
saddle-stitched on the spot from the FOMObile – a roving publishing
press with its own built-in power generator and solar-powered wi-fi
hotspot. The resulting publication will be distributed for free in
Milan and made available on the Dezeen website.
The
On The Fly talks will be FOMO's first test in a real-world
environment. Anyone, anywhere will be able to take part by using the
#OnTheFlyMilan hashtag on social media on Wednesday 9, Thursday 10,
and Friday 11 April between 5.00 and 7.30pm CET.
Today's
event will be moderated by Joseph Grima, founder of Space Caviar and
the former editor of Domus.
Talks
on Thursday will be hosted by Gianluigi Ricuperati and will include
Ianthe Roach, Pier Nucleo and Italo Rota, who will all discuss the
theme "seamlessness". On Friday, Marco Velardi will host
Formafantasma, Martino Gamper and Anna Meroni talking about
sustainability in design.
