SUMMARY:Tate Liverpool: Tate Liverpool: Platform
DESCRIPTION:\n\nJoin ECAlab for an immersive and sculptural presentation in
  Tate Exchange.\n\n\n\n\nDrop in anytime and play\, create and experience 
 PlatFORM - a multi-sensory\, glowing sculpture that responds to movement a
 nd the human touch. Join us each day for a curator tour or public lecture.
 \n\nAccompanying PlatFORM’s Tate Exchange showcase will be a symposium t
 hat brings together architects\, artists\, industry professionals\, engine
 ers\, researchers and the public to discuss emerging thinking and ceramic 
 futures. Find out more and book your free place.\n\nFor more information
  on times and events\, please visit ECAlab's website.\n\nAbout PlatFORM\n
 \nThe environments we inhabit and the buildings we sculpt have a fundament
 al impact on our experience of space\, but also a major effect on our natu
 ral environment. Searching for ways to make meaningful sustainable archite
 ctures that have a sense of place\, but that also minimise our energy cons
 umption has become a priority. Questioning existing building technologies\
 , their production techniques\, the materials used\, and the way that they
  are design-engineered is central to our approach to research and producti
 on.\n\nCeramics\, as a sustainable and less energy intensive material\, of
 fers unique opportunities for environmental design\, not only in ecologica
 l terms\, but also in embracing the convergence of advanced engineering pr
 ocesses with art and craftsmanship. ECAlab believes in innovation through 
 the fusion of past and present production methodologies and the collaborat
 ion between different disciplines\, with the aim to generate a more meanin
 gful and sustainable architecture that supports local heritage and fosters
  social sustainability.\n\nIn their acclaimed exhibition Cerámica at RIBA
  North\, ECAlab engaged ceramic artists to reinterpret an optimised object
  developed in a scientific environment to explore the expressivity of clay
  and its potential for cultural embodiment and transformation through the 
 hand of the craftsman. Building on the material and collaborative concepts
  established in this event\, ECAlab now showcase PlatFORM at Tate Liverpoo
 l - a new set of experimental ceramic surfaces that explore human-centred 
 experiences.\n\nPlatFORM is interested in what ceramics can bring to archi
 tectural place-making beyond its materiality and craftsmanship. This is a 
 collaboration with ceramicists and sound artists to reflect on the perform
 ative potential of the same ceramic object\, to explore the way in which c
 eramic architectures can enhance our experience of space.\n\n
