Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
We are proposing a cluster of scientists, artists, designers, and industrialists that focusses on taking ideas, methods, paradigms and algorithms from nature and introducing them into the design process. Nature inspired approaches have the potential to create better designs, as well as better design processes and tools. The cluster will have three main tasks: bring people together to identify possibilities for collaboration, encourage and support the collaborations, and explore new research directions and topics. The cluster activities consist of workshops, seminars and an exhibition; as well as an online forum.
