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.

Akomplice: Limousine Early Voting Party

Opening at Eyebeam next week in Manhattan the exhibit is promises a myriad of creative curiosities. With 15 artists on display, this season's offerings include a a photocopier that reads...
