In the subject Design: Technology.Textiles, especially in the field of technology, there was no dust- and noise-free place to teach, to discuss, to learn, to reflect, to take a break and to cook and eat, apart from the fantastic workshops until 2019.
Based on designs and fashion objects by fashion designer Roberto Capucci, students from the Design: Technology.Textiles program, together with students from the Department of Stage and Costume Design, Film and Exhibition Architecture, explored relevant questions of inspiration and its transformation.
"Fundus" was the title of an exhibition by students of the Department of Design: Technology.Textiles. Selected works from bachelor's and master's projects were shown, which made the diversity of the new course of study publicly tangible for the first time. The students created the exhibition concept on their own and also wrote their own texts.
Zwischen(t)räume is a project by students and teachers of the study program 'Design: Technology.Textile' of the Mozarteum University, residents of the Strubergassensiedlung and the residents' service Lehen & Taxham.
Colours take on a variety of functions in our everyday lives. The perception of the world, nature, things and all artefacts "in colour" seems self-evident to us. Colours are systematised, catalogued and traded as material means.
Things and non-things. Things in abundance. Things that no one needs. Things that have become old. Things that are broken. Things that don't please. Things en masse. Things that nobody wants. Do you have things that you don't use? Things that you find terrible? Things that are broken? A thing with which you associate a story? Or a thing that is too beautiful to throw away?
Idling refers to the operation of a system or machine without it doing the work for which it is intended. When does an activity make sense? Is idling a reset? a cure? a pause? What happens during the idle time?
The students approached the design through different parameters: For one, the starting point was movement, for another the material, for a third the form or even the target group, and for the last the function. Courage! and laziness! are terms that the various objects proudly trumpet to their future users.
On the design of everyday life: As part of the design project "I (discover) the table", eleven students of the subject Design: Technology.Textiles asked themselves questions about eating together. How do I eat? What do I eat? Where do I eat? With what do I eat? With whom do I eat? And how do the others eat?
Students of the master's project Textiles in Motion at the University Mozarteum Salzburg first dealt with their location in the city of Salzburg, the city in which they moved every day. The question arose as to their very personal 'favourite places' within the city.
