Future fibres will be at the centre of research in AwhiWorld’s upcoming BIOS lab in May/June this year. We are excited to partner with Professor Frances Joseph of Intra-Action Initiatives & AUT University’s Huri Te Ao/The School of Future Environments to deliver a series of FREE Future Fibres seminars and workshops at Whangarei Art Museum.
We have already run a successful introductory workshop in Rawene to activate research projects with our community partners and feed their work-in-progress into BIOS
Frances and her postgraduate students will be sharing their research via a series of public demonstrations and seminars on:
