Temporalities Clothing Temporalities: A workshop with Erin Manning and Spurse + Brian Massumi discussant As part of the research project DEEPTIME RAPIDTIME we invite you to participate in a workshop to rethink clothing in relation to temporality. We will focus on the transversal linkages between topology and topography through the active shaping and sewing of fabric toward the creation of a clothing system that moves between the body and mobile architecture. This work will develop and continue the ideas developed by Erin Manning in the project: Folds to Infinity and the spurse research project on Clothing Temporalities at KCAI 2008. This will be an exciting and challenging hands-on workshop moving back and forth be- tween readings, making, discussions and experimentations. Materials will be supplied. Who should Attend: This workshop is intended to mix peoples across disciplines— clothing, architecture, philosophy, geology, geography, and art etc. Bring your skills and skill levels, plus a willingness to participate fully in what promises to be a very exceptional event.
