Digital Symbiosis: The Aesthetics and Creation of Stimulus-Reactive Jewellery with Smart Materials and Microelectronics (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Vones, K. (2015). Digital Symbiosis: The Aesthetics and Creation of Stimulus-Reactive Jewellery with Smart Materials and Microelectronics. In Proceedings of the Third Conference on Computation, Communication, Aesthetics and X

This article explores how smart materials, and in particular thermochromic silicone, can be integrated into a wearable object in combination with microelectronics to create aesthetically coherent stimulus-reactive jewellery. The different types and p... Read More about Digital Symbiosis: The Aesthetics and Creation of Stimulus-Reactive Jewellery with Smart Materials and Microelectronics.

Towards the Posthuman: Materiality and process in the creation of stimulus-responsive jewellery objects (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Vones, K. (2014). Towards the Posthuman: Materiality and process in the creation of stimulus-responsive jewellery objects. In All Makers Now?

The idea of creating a jewellery organism that comes alive on the body has fascinated and inspired my research ever since learning about the potential inherent in smart materials almost ten years ago. While smart materials have been known to scientis... Read More about Towards the Posthuman: Materiality and process in the creation of stimulus-responsive jewellery objects.
