2014 CETEMMSA OBSERVATORY ABOUT CETEMMSA

CETEMMSA is a technological centre conducting research in the field of Printed Electronics and High Textiles, and transfers its knowledge to companies wanting to innovate with differentiated products with a high added value. Its spe- cialisation is within printed, flexible and flat electronics, as an alternative to tra- ditional silicon electronics, which allows for the addition of new functionalities to different surfaces (textiles, plastics, paper, polymeric films,...). It is possible now to emit light, gather energy and physical or biolo- gical data or interacting with objects and people in a different and innovative way. CETEMMSA does this thanks to its integrated chain which ranges from applied research to engineering and product industrialisation. These devices are bound to be applied to various strategic sectors such as health and wellbeing, automotive and transportation, professional sports, packaging, architecture and construction, and technical textiles.

Re-setting and entering the anthropocene era and rethinking the human condition and limitations in space. Human, animal and object physical and emotional expressions are interchan- geable. A holistic approach to health where we observe the human, not the machine. Anatomy influences fashion and the human body enters the realm of dismorfism and genetic manipulation. Biology impacts in the form of new available materials and manufacturing processes. Data is translated into beautiful intuitive languages. A new realism-fantasy where we can experience parallel lives through others or enhance our emotional experience through digital supports, with special at- tention to extreme emotions such as danger and fear.

Wearables are inspired by animal forms or terms. Garments breathe and become alive and are able to imitate when confronted. Body as generator of beautiful sounds or energy. Coloured light or scent as mediators for balancing a holistic health state. Besides established vital signs, brain waves become the new vitals to be monitored. Garments or accessories help enhance the fic- tional experience.
