In this episode we speak to Grace Jun. As Educational Director for the 2016 MIT- based Open Style Lab and co-founder of Wearshops, Grace continues to explore the user experience design process when developing wearable solutions. She looks for collaborative opportunities to discuss best practices in clothing and technology. She has lectured at Forum for the Future on the sustainability of wearable tech, Harvard School of Education, RISD Industrial Design for Wearable Experiences, and conducted a workshop at Yonsei University in Seoul, Korea on circuit design for clothing closures. Her recent collaborative work is the Shape Changing Materials workshop with Noumena. 21st Century Design is a research podcast by Engage by Design (Rodrigo Bautista) and Regenerative Design (Jan Leyssens), in which we ask designers, tech-experts, writers, theorists, academics, activists and campaigners 5 questions on the future and role of design in creating the 21st Century.Subscribe for the podcast through iTunes or Soundcloud, or look us up on our home on the web www.21stcenturydesign.org.- Music: www.bensound.com
