OUGD602 Making London Event: The Unseen


The Unseen essense


Finally, the most interesting speaker at the event was Lauren Bowker who is the founder of the Unseen and the science editor at large for Dazed.  She showed off her work with the molecule she created that originally absorbed pollution which she used within most of her fashion pieces which really put air pollution into perspective for the public.  



What most people know her for is the colour changing hair vine from 2017 which showed the instantaneous colour transition from brown to pink which looked like it came straight out a science fiction film.  All the work she showcased was truly awe inspiring as it was crazy some of the stuff she’s produced such as a cap that changes colour over a million pigments based on the brain activity throughout the day and Virgin Galactic badges that will permanently change colour based on its exposure to space.  

Her whole presentation was incredible with the work that she has produced.  I felt I was 50 years in the future after listening to how she created all her designs and products.
While there were many more speakers, these were the ones that really resonated with me.
