V2_Lab: Intimacy

V2_ received many responses to its call for a fashion designer to work
on Studio Roosegaarde and V2_Lab’s wearable technology project Intimacy.
We hereby wish once again to extend our sincere thanks to all the
applicants. Designer Maartje Dijkstra is now at work designing and
making the first prototype. We plan to present it publicly at the next
Test_Lab.

We also have good news related to media artist Daan Roosegaarde. His
installation Dune 4.2 has been given a permanent home in the Rotterdam
neighborhood of De Esch and will be officially opened on October 29. It
was also announced recently that Roosegaarde’s work Flow 5.0 had won
the Dutch Design Award in the spatial design category.
