We live in times of troubled abundance resutling from extractivist and anthropocentric ways of being, producing and living. One example of such phenomenon is the local wool. Today, local wool is left abandon with the introduction of synthetic fibers. In South Tyrol, every year approx. 50 tonnes of wool are being wasted. Through Design(s) for Wool All(iances), we want to work on design scenarios that can be imagined with raw wool to be used for other “skins\u201d that are not only human (e.g. plants, trees, rocks, soil, water) as a \u201cmatter of care\u201d. We invite participants to co-create, materialize and speculate wool application ideas.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

About<\/strong>
Se\u00e7il U\u011fur Yavuz is an associate professor at unibz. Through participatory design and co-design methods, her research aims at opening debate and stimulating new visions of interaction within the entanglement of our socio and technological spheres towards sustainable and desirable future(s).

Merve Bekta\u015f is an inter- and transdisciplinary designer-artist, and researcher at unibz. She blends practice-based research and research-through-design methodologies with eco-social transformation, engaging with critical, speculative and multispecies design approaches.

Camilo Ayala-Garcia is a product designer, textile designer, researcher and assistant professor at the Faculty of Design and Art at the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano. His current research bridges emerging technologies and materialities towards a transitional circularity.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
