Recently, I visited exhibitions by Miguel Chevalier, Raoul Dufy and the artfairs as Kiaf and Frieze in Seoul. While attending an exhibition by #MiguelChevalier in Seoul, I found myself contemplating the potential fusion of digital art with luxury fashion. I envision a video art exhibition where each element operates independently, seamlessly integrating interactive art customized exclusively for luxury brands with captivating print patterns. 1. A Biased Human Upon realizing artpieces were created by robots, I found myself having a curios yet disappointing. I started having biased notion that it’s less perfect than expected for a robot. I’m so surprised to realize the representativeness heuristic within myself. 2. How to interweave Digital art and Luxury fashion? The intersection of digital art and luxury fashion, emphasizing the importance of real-world experiences. I suggest blending interactive digital art with luxury brands like Hermès and PUCCI Additionally, visiting another exhibition by #RaoulDufy and watching his video artwork, I couldn’t help but think of Hermès. It would be fantastic to see a video art exhibition where each element moves separately, incorporating interactive art, specifically tailored for Hermès. Last but not least, I was impressed watching the BMW Group installation "The electric AI Canvas" at Frieze Artfair in Seoul 2023, where prints flowed over the newly presented model. we can also consider incorporating a fashion brand into this idea, instead of a car. #Friezeartfair #Seoulartweek #aiartworks #artandfashion #luxuryfashion You can find my full article link below.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art is bringing historical fashion to life using their new web3 exhibition "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion”. For this installation, innovative technologies helped The Metropolitan Museum of Art transform static fashion displays into immersive, multi-sensory experiences that allow visitors to interact with the original creators and wearers of the garments on view. Our 0.02ETH: Brands will continue to adopt innovative technologies like AI and digital collectibles to add new layers of storytelling and connectivity to their products or services, heightening brand recognition. Of course, it's wise for brands and marketers to gather insights on how audiences are engaging with these immersive campaigns, both in-person and online. That’s why we help brands distribute free digital collectibles that give visitors a new way to remember their love for the museum. These digital collectibles enable The Met to re-engage collectors long after the experience ends. We’ve seen brands reengage collectors through: - Exclusive content (behind-the-scenes, interviews, virtual events) - Tokengated experiences (early access, private viewings, meet-and-greets) - Dedicated online communities for discussion and connection - Gamification (challenges, quizzes, scavenger hunts) with rewards - Exclusive limited-edition offers (digital art, physical products, discounts, event access, future experiences, and more) Connect with our team and learn how your brand can blend digital moments into real-world experiences.

I am excited to share my experience in the world of fashion. For over 20 years, I worked in physical fashion, but for the past two years, I've dedicated myself to digital clothing design. Transitioning to 3D technology has opened up a multitude of new opportunities and advantages that I'd like to share. ✨Advantages of Working in the Digital Sphere for Fashion Design: 1. 💃Unlimited Creativity: Digital tools allow for experimentation with shapes, textures, and colors without the constraints of physical materials. In the 3D space, even the boldest design ideas can come to life. 2. 👌Resource Efficiency: Working in 3D significantly reduces the costs of materials and samples. Virtual prototypes can be created and adjusted without using fabric, saving resources and time. 3. 🏃🏽♀️➡️Speed and Efficiency: Digital design greatly shortens the time from concept to finished product. Virtual collections can be created and presented to clients much faster than physical ones. 4. 🌎Sustainability: The shift to digital processes helps reduce the carbon footprint and waste, making the fashion industry more eco-friendly. Virtual shows and collections also minimize the need for transportation and logistics. 5. 👾Interactivity: Digital collections can be interactive, allowing clients to engage with products in new ways. AR and VR technologies enable virtual try-ons, enhancing customer engagement and satisfaction. 6. 🤌Global Access: Digital platforms provide access to a global market, enabling designers to collaborate with clients and colleagues worldwide without physical barriers. Digital fashion not only expands the boundaries of creativity but also offers efficient and sustainable solutions for the modern industry. I am confident that the future of fashion lies in the harmonious blend of physical and digital design. I invite you to watch my video, where I showcase my work and share more about my experience in the digital sphere. Let's explore the new horizons of fashion together!

🌟360DESIGN, blurring the lines between Digital and Reality 🌏 I came across an intriguing article on DesignBoom, "Tokyo's Digital Art Scene: Must-See Openings in 2023-24," and the idea of jetting off to Tokyo for a digital art extravaganza is truly enticing. (Read it here:https://lnkd.in/e4-z-3R6) Imagine immersing yourself in Tokyo's digital art scene while savoring its culture and cuisine. I've embarked on spontaneous trips before, like when Comme Des Garcons invited me to their Paris runway shows. It was a whirlwind weekend escape from New York to Paris. However, the reality check is that Tokyo feels out of reach at the moment. But here's the twist: What if we could bridge the gap between our yearning for unattainable exhibitions and the constraints of the real world? What if we could create something even more immersive than videos or images? Philips recently rented our New York pop-up gallery space (https://www.the360.space) for an exhibition celebrating motherhood through the work of four talented women painters. It got me thinking: Can we fashion a digital twin of this exhibition, a transcendent experience that defies physical boundaries? Philips responded with enthusiasm, and suddenly, we were on a whirlwind journey to recreate The360Space's digital twin for their upcoming art exhibition—just 10 days away! Here's what makes this blend of art, tech, and human connection so thrilling: 🌐 Blurred Boundaries: We're erasing the lines between the physical and the digital, making art and culture across the globe accessible. 🌍 Global Access: You don't need a Tokyo plane ticket to enjoy exhibitions; now, art is truly global and accessible anytime, anywhere. 🕰️ Endless Digital Legacy: The virtual exhibition lives on, a timeless archive we can revisit and share at our leisure. 📚 Digital Enrichment: In the digital realm, we seamlessly link to supplementary content—videos, artist profiles, and background materials—deepening our connection to art. 📱 Physical Enhancements: Even in physical spaces, we integrate digital enhancements through QR codes, transforming gallery visits into multifaceted journeys. 🤝 The Human Touch: While digital experiences offer wonders, nothing quite matches the thrill of mingling with fellow art enthusiasts at an in-person gallery opening. Each environment, physical or digital, has its unique allure. So, while my dream Tokyo trip remains on hold, the future of art unfolds before us. A future where we all join the global art dialogue, transcending borders and constraints. The possibilities are as boundless as the digital canvas itself, and I'm excited to see where this journey takes us next. 🚀🎨 Share in the comments which event you'd like to experience virtually. #ArtTech #DigitalArt #ImmersiveExperiences #360DESIGN #The360SPACE #DigitalTwin #EventExperience #Artistry #Innovation #CreativeCollaboration

Forget what you think you know about art. 2024 is about breaking the mold! Dreamlike paintings, glitchy aesthetics, and even art made IN the metaverse... Get ready for the weird and wonderful. What art trend would most surprise you? #art #contemporaryart #weirdart #glitch #surreal #digitalart #metaverse #climateawareness #activism Styles Neo-Expressionism with a Twist: Bold, emotional, and gestural painting, similar to 1980s Neo-Expressionism, but with added elements like mixed media, digital influences, or addressing contemporary social issues. Glitch Art Aesthetics: Paintings that incorporate the visual language of digital errors, screen glitches, and corrupted data. This could involve pixelation, distortion, or fragmented imagery. Surreal Figuration: Figurative paintings with dreamlike or fantastical elements - think distorted figures, impossible juxtapositions, and explorations of the subconscious. Textural Minimalism: Abstract paintings with a focus on rich, textured surfaces and subtle variations in color. This could involve the use of unconventional materials or a meditative approach to process. Activist Hyperrealism: Photorealistic paintings that meticulously depict scenes of social or political significance, aimed at sparking conversation and potentially action. Movements Global Hybridity: Artists blending the artistic traditions of their own culture with global influences, resulting in unique and visually dynamic works. This could challenge notions of artistic categories. The New Psychedelia: A movement inspired by psychedelic experiences but reimagined for the digital age. Think vibrant colors, swirling patterns, and explorations of alternative realities, often aided by technology. Climate Conscious Art: Artworks that directly address the ecological crisis, either through the use of sustainable materials, raising awareness through imagery, or visualizing potential futures. Metaverse-Inspired Art: Artists exploring the visual and conceptual possibilities of virtual worlds and online communities. These artworks might integrate digital elements or exist solely in the metaverse. Important Notes: These are speculations to spark your imagination, not certainties. Art is unpredictable! Often, the most exciting trends are those that come out of left field and surprise us. Movements often take years to gain a formal name and recognition. Let me know if you want a deeper dive into a particular style or movement!

💭 How will the future of fashion look like? As a designer, I constantly wonder the future of fashion. During my second year at art school, the documentary "True Cost" opened my eyes to the unsustainable cycle of production and consumption. It sparked a quest for alternative methods, leading me to grow materials with kombucha, dye fabrics with flowers, and volunteer in sorting factories for second-hand clothing. About five years ago, 3D entered my path, and it clicked instantly. This, I felt, is the future of fashion. Yet, I soon discovered that 3D had been around for years, with the fashion industry adopting it out of necessity during the pandemic. For some, unfortunately, 3D fashion was a trend- neglegting it's true power. Every day, I realize that working as a digital fashion designer isn't just about artistry but also activism. I wholeheartedly believe in this cause. Despite setbacks, I continue working towards a better future, engaging in conversations and visualizing what that future could look like. I was thrilled when Antonio Talarico, Isabelle Udo and CLARE TATTERSALL invited me again to participate in Future Front Row during Digital Fashion Week in New York. This time, there is no pre-recorded animations on the catlwak, but real-time interaction. In a performance with a dancer, the lines between augmented reality and live action blur as the designs come to life. The performance will be featured by the otherworldly characters of Harriet Davey. In the past, brands created worlds through editorials, films, and photoshoots, where the product manifested the experience. With the digital shift, we no longer need just the product; we can now be part of the experience. Call me delusional, but I believe that as traditional stores fade from our streets, we will fill these voids with immersive experiences. Let's shape the future of fashion together! 🌊 #FashionInnovation #SustainableDesign #DigitalFashion #FutureFrontrow #ActivismInDesign Shoes modelled by Bram Siebers

Presenting you The Sequin Digital Haute Couture Dress designed in Style3D. Here is why I switched to Style3D from Clo3D. 1. Realism: Ray tracing simulates the behavior of light in a virtual environment, resulting in stunningly realistic images with accurate reflections, shadows, and lighting effects. This level of realism enhances product visualization, making it easier for designers and consumers to envision the final product. 2. Detailed Avatars: With ray tracing, avatars in Style3D can be rendered with unprecedented detail, capturing nuances like skin texture, fabric draping, and hair movement. This level of fidelity is essential for applications ranging from virtual try-on experiences in fashion to lifelike character creation in gaming. 3. Realistic Soft Body Simulation: Soft body stimulation accurately mimics the physical properties of fabrics, allowing designers to see how different materials drape, fold, and move on a 3D model. This realism helps in selecting the right fabric for a design, improving the final product's look and feel. By leveraging ray tracing technology, Style3D not only raises the bar for visual fidelity but also empowers designers to create more immersive and compelling experiences across industries.

"WE'RE BUILDING A HOUSE": HOW RABANNE IS USING ART INNOVATION TO LEVEL UP Madeleine Schulz for Vogue Business: Chief brand officer Vincent Thilloy and creative director Julien Dossena on how a new digital art partnership with Art Basel is a prong in the brand’s strategy to become a fully fledged fashion house. Key Takeaways: 🎙 Rabanne is on a mission: to evolve from fashion brand to maison, and its newly created Rabanne Arts Factory is a pillar of the Puig-owned brand’s strategy to do so. Launched in December in partnership with Dazed Media, the programme is geared towards supporting the next generation of digital artists. Today, the Rabanne Arts Factory announces a partnership with Art Basel: six digital artists are in the running to win the opportunity to show at Art Basel Miami in December. 🎹 Part of the purpose, Thilloy says, is to cater to the youth: “To galvanise the younger generation to forge a more creative and inclusive world.” The idea started three or four years ago, he says: the Rabanne team wanted to develop something to uplift younger generations. The brand looked to digital art, in part, because of the young demographic creating work in this space. Innovation is also key. “We want to [help] emerge new talents, and new ways of expressing artistic behaviour – the same way that César was using metal to do the sculptures.” (César was one of the artists that told Paco Rabanne he should make metal dresses.) But do young people even still care about digital art? They should, Dossena says. This parallels Rabanne’s wider rebrand, which began last year when it dropped the ‘Paco’. The goal was to unify the brand under one vision. The Rabanne Arts Factory will continue to evolve to meet younger generations where they’re at. 🎸 Building the house “It’s not just about the product. It’s about: What is the purpose of Rabanne?” Might digital art play a role in this design? Perhaps, Dossena says. But it’ll be part of the process, not an automation. “It’s definitely an area we are going to explore – but in totally the opposite way to AI. That’s why I insist on the medium aspect of [digital art]: it’s different from the finalisation of the image. It’s good to interrogate the image.” 📟 Rabanne wants to communicate this message of innovation internationally, too. It’s why Art Basel was the ideal partner for this project, Thilloy says: the winner will be announced in Miami, but the fair also has a presence in Paris, Hong Kong and Basel, Switzerland (where the six finalists are announced today). It offers the artists a further-reaching platform – and the brand, as well. (When the brand dropped ‘Paco’, part of the rationale was that it was “more international in spirit”.) 🎛 learn more: https://lnkd.in/g6Yp9CfA #ai #ar #vr #vogue #metaverse #fashion #crypto #investment

RABANNE LAUNCHES A NEW DIGITAL ARTIST PROGRAM AT ART BASEL, WHILE MTGE TEAMS UP WITH VINTAGE HAUNT DUKES CUPBOARD Bethanie Ryder for Jing Daily 🐯 Rabanne launches Rabanne Arts Factory at Art Basel In collaboration with media publication DAZED Magazine, Rabanne has launched Rabanne Arts Factory, a new initiative aimed at supporting the next generation of digital creatives. To kick off the program, Rabanne has created a new competition, offering one digital artist the chance to showcase their work at Art Basel Miami in December. The project is indicative of how fashion is approaching the digital world today. 🦁 MNTGE teams up with Dukes Cupboard on new vintage collection Web3-native indie label Mntge has joined forces with London’s vintage hotspot Dukes Cupboard to launch a new capsule collection. The drop, which goes live on June 20, features 75 rare vintage pieces spanning from the late 1980s to the early 2000s. Gems on offer include Prada, Comme des Garçons, Stone Island, and Moncler. Each piece is chipped with NFC technology; when scanned, owners can access information on the garment’s history and provenance. To celebrate, Mntge and Dukes will host a special pop-up event for Paris Fashion Week, running from June 20–22. Mntge’s mission to bridge old clothes with new technology may seem ambitious, but it’s working. Through its latest venture alongside brand archivists Dukes, the disruptor hopes to expand on its goal of prolonging fashion artifacts via the blockchain. 🐶 Gaming-meets-streetwear label HYPLAND opens first physical store in LA Hypland, the LA-based brand inspired by gaming, anime, and streetwear, has opened its first physical store in the historic district of Little Tokyo. The flagship, which opened its doors on June 8, features a selection of vintage home accessories, gaming equipment, and clothing items. The interior was designed to replicate that of a gaming fan’s home and will serve as a community hub for local gaming, anime, and streetwear fashion enthusiasts. While luxury brands have focused on digitizing their identities through gaming platforms, Hypland hopes to reverse this trend by bringing widely recognized gaming IPs from their virtual domains into the real world 🐵 Meta Bites Augmented reality provider FFFACE.ME has introduced an AR mirror experience alongside beauty brand Makeup by Mario. Located in Sephora Times Square, the immersive activation allows users to browse the label's bronzer collection and select their ideal shade. A virtual hand, representing CEO and makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic, applies the selected shade to the user’s face, giving off the illusion that Dedivanovic is personally applying the makeup. 🦊 LEARN MORE: https://lnkd.in/gJKP89uv #fashion #ai #metaverse #investment #web3 #blockchain
