Frank Kresin (Research Director) will speak at the Thingscon Salon #4 in Eindhoven on July 8th, 2016. His contribution will be about the Making Sense project and the smart city.
The fourth edition of the Thingscon Salon will take place in Eindhoven, Strijp-S. This edition - organised in close partnership with VPRO Medialab - touches the theme of the role of the design of our connected world in relation to the smart society.
Thingscon Salon is a monthly focused event, organised by the team of Thingscon Amsterdam, the successful conference on the designing and making of the new connected things. One of the key parts are the in-depth workshops that cover several topics and connect the community. These workshops are the base for the Thingscon Salon.
