2024 DIS WORKSHOP

In an increasingly interconnected world, the aesthetics of connectivity have a profound impact on how we interact with data, AI, and the products and services built upon them. This workshop aims to explore innovative approaches, methodologies, and technologies that take connectivity into design considerations to further enhance the role of aesthetics in empowering individuals. Through an in-depth discussion of the intricate interplay between connectivity, aesthetics, and empowerment, our primary objective is to cultivate meaningful discourse and collaborations among a diverse spectrum of stakeholders, including researchers, practitioners, designers, artists, and industry professionals. We believe that such a platform will enable us to collectively envision and develop innovative solutions that empower individuals to thrive.
