Inviting young designers, a two-part residency at the new techLAB revolves
around democratic design and digital production technologies: In a workshop,
Klemens Kohlweis shows how he reinterprets materials between analogue and digital production – such as by combining 3-D printing with knitting – and how DIY wearables can be made in this way. Students at the New Design University (NDU) St. Pölten use the techLAB as a maker space at the intersection of handcrafts and technology – the designs developed there are distributed on the new NextGenLab online platform. At the Sunday Meet the Maker*-Café, visitors may learn more about this research project’s platform and get to know the students and their work methods.
