Abstract

This volume summarizes the results of "The Aesthetics of Sustainability", a research project led by ECAL/Ecole cantonale d`art de Lausanne. It brought together master’s students of product design, established materials specialists, manufacturers and researchers with the aim of exploring and defining the aesthetic potential of a new generation of sustainable materials. The result of this research-through-design project is a series of fourteen case studies involving the development of materials made from textile waste, recycled paper, rubber granulate or vegetable fibers such as algae, rice husks, hemp, flax and wood. The resulting new materials can be shaped, pressed, woven or welded. A selection of these materials will be presented through experiments and prototypes of products. The aim is to offer future designers a range of practical tools and applied knowledge about the methods of analyzing and processing seminal materials, utilizing their advantageous qualities and developing functional, yet aesthetically intriguing objects.The materials further aim to provide proof that sustainable materials are a great market opportunity for manufacturers and consumers alike.

Abstract

Scientific research on climate change has given rise to a variety of images picturing climate change. These range from colorful expert graphics, model visualizations, photographs of extreme weather events like floods, droughts or melting ice, symbols like polar bears, to animated and interactive visualizations. Climate change graphics have not only increased knowledge about the subject, they have begun to influence popular awareness of global weather events. The status of climate pictures today is particularly crucial, as global climate change as a long-term process cannot be seen. When images are widely distributed, they are able to shape how the world is thought about and seen. It is this implicit basic assumption of the power of images to influence reality that this book addresses: today's images might become the blueprint for tomorrow's realities. »Image Politics of Climate Change« combines a wide interdisciplinary range of perspectives and questions, treated here in sixteen interdisciplinary case studies. The author's specializations include both visual practice and theory: in the fields of climate sciences, computer graphics, art, curating, art history and visual studies, communication and cultural science, environmental and science & technology studies. The close interlinking of these viewpoints promotes in-depth insights into issues of production and analysis of climate visualization. »Eine Publikation, die mit informierten und detaillierten Beiträgen der Komplexität des Themas bestens Rechnung trägt. Die Beiträge zeichnen sich alle durch ihre hohe Qualität und trotz des Detailreichtums durch ein hohes Theorieniveau aus.« Angela Krewani, MEDIENwissenschaft, 3 (2015) »Die im Band versammelten 16 Beiträge [machen] eindrucksvoll den Facettenreichtum des Gegenstandes deutlich.« Mike S. Schäfer, M&K, 63/2 (2015)

Abstract

Bij de zorg voor dementerende ouderen verdient de materiële omgeving veel aandacht. Dit boek toont hoe men bij de inrichting van de woning of de instelling rekening kan houden met de behoeften van dementerenden en hun verzorgers. Het richt zich tot iedereen die met dementerenden in aanraking komt, zowel in de thuissituatie als in de residentiële zorg. "Tussen autonomie en geborgenheid: Dementeren de ouderen en hun omgeving" is geen handleiding met richtlijnen, maar een bundeling van visies die de lezer aanzet om zelf verder te denken.
