This event has ended.

Since the emergence of IoT and digital fabrication, manufacturing is no longer a unilateral process exclusive to industries, but more an interactive process in which each of us can participate and collaborate to develop ideas in society.
“Industory” reveals the stories of two groups of creators who challenge the conventional concept of design and manufacturing: ‘Prototyping & Design Laboratory’ run by Prof. Shunji Yamanaka at The University of Tokyo explores the potentiality of novel artifacts through prototype integrating design and engineering. ‘Neurowear’ deftly transforms new ways of human-machine relationships into IoT devices that fit naturally into our lifestyles.
Through their “stories”, you can witness how Industry changes, and will be able to get a glimpse of our future.
