Alt-win.ning | We Wear Wearables
Thursday 2nd July 2009, 8pm. £5
CCA, 350 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow G2 3JD
We've invited Sarah Kettley to curate a selection of wearable technology for use during the Alt-win.ning event. Sarah will introduce her own work and pieces by Stephen Barrass, Jo Hodge, Georgina Bavalia and Elena Corchero.
The wearables concept is based on the permanent integration of clothing and technology. Intelligent features and special fibres react in unconventional ways permiting clothes and accessories to serve a wider range of functions.

Our second Alt-win.ning guest twitterist was Hannu Rajaniemi, an enterpreneur and science fiction writer who admits to spending too much time thinking about the future.
Born in Finland but has lived in Edinburgh for the last seven years, Hannu studied mathematics at the University of Oulu, Cambridge and Edinburgh University.
He holds a Ph.D. in string theory and is a co-founder of ThinkTank Maths Limited, a technology consultancy. We loved ' Unused Tomorrows and Other Stories' last year.

Alt-win.ning | Netwurker Mez
Thursday 2nd July 2009, 8pm. £5
CCA, 350 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow G2 3JD
"Mez does for code poetry as jodi and Vuk Cosic have done for ASCII Art: Turning a great, but naively executed concept into something brilliant, paving the ground for a whole generation of digital artists." (Florian Cramer)
Following her remarkable residency that utilised the New Media Scotland Twitter stream in July 2008, we commissioned Netwurker Mez to create a new eight part piece of work especially for the Alt-win.ning event.
