Fashionable Technology Book Launch by Ami Kealoha
Professor, designer, CEO and curator Sabine Seymour's new book "Fashionable Technology" collects 50 examples in the burgeoning field that integrate technology with clothing. From the conceptual to the practical, the survey features gorgeous photographs and detailed descriptions of work by artists, designers and institutions.
We don't want to give too much away here as we'll be covering the book in detail and if you're in New York this week we want to encourage you to come to what will be much more than a launch, involving a runway show, an exhibit and lecture. See details below.

Avedon Fashion: 1944-2000
Of the many insights to be gleaned from the upcoming exhibition at the International Center of Photography featuring the work of Richard Avedon's work from 1944-2000, I found it particularly fascinating that the photographer would forge such intense connections with his subjects that he would often leave sittings feeling embarrassed over what they shared. The show explores these intimate relationships and his many contributions...

Michel Auder and Andrew Neel: The Feature
