Scientistic Invitational by IDSA-LA Winners
Scientistic Invitational by IDSA-LA
The Los Angeles chapter of the Industrial Designer's Society of America's (IDSA-LA) first annual Scientistic Invitational, a juried interdisciplinary design exhibition has been done. Scientistic Invitational was seeking inventive and experimental projects from all designers: students and seasoned professionals, individually and collectively, locally and beyond.
At the inception of an idea, provoking conversation between peers propels us toward the most groundbreaking solutions and fuels the undercurrent of any movement. Scientistic Invitational was seeking to unearth these ideas at their crucial early stages, engaging the design community at large in a conversation with an eye toward the future.
Juried by a diverse group of respected industry leaders, such as Yves Behar, Jennifer Siegal and Josh Rubin, projects evaluated with a focus on creativity, process and theory rather than the finished product. Designers that demonstrated a particular resourcefulness and curiosity are strongly encouraged to enter their latest creations, theories or pipe dreams.
Submissions accepted from January 24 through April 15, 2005, culminating in an exhibition at the "DesignTECH Connect" Conference on May 13 in Pasadena, CA and again at The Brewery ARTWALK on May 14. The exhibitions featured two selections from each of the following entry categories: Food, Mobility, Ritual, Shelter, Systems, Manifesto, Wearable, and Health & Body. Scientistic Invitational's unique categories invited designers to play outside the standard bounds of industrial design.
