about the symposium Theme The symposium that will be held on 17 February 2015 will have the following theme: Virtual reality: New possibilities Virtual reality is a simulated reality where a person can interact with his surroundings. For some time this technique is emerging. But only in the past few years great strides have been made with VR. With the arrival of the Oculus Rift, the possibilities of virtual reality has become familiar with the masses. However, all the recent and notable developments focus on gaming: how do we offer the consumer an even greater gaming experience. This symposium want to inform students about the possibilities of virtual reality outside the popular segments. This will be realised by inviting speakers with interesting knowledge regarding VR, for instance applying VR in the field of healthcare or the design process, but also start the debate about ethics regarding VR. Industrial Designers are people with a broad background and we want to retrieve this broad perspective with our symposium: one theme that consists of multiple areas which could be interesting for every type of designer. We expect around 150 participants for our symposium. The main part of this group will consist of Industrial Design students and we expect that a small group will consist of employees of the University of Twente.

Location The symposium will take place at two locations on the campus of the University of Twente: the newly build DesignLab and the VR-Lab. Below information can be found about the two locations.
DesignLab DesignLab is a creative and cross-disciplinary ecosystem at the University of Twente, connecting science and society through design. Faculty and students from all fields work together with companies and governments on societal design challenges of our times, inspired by novel scientific insights. Top talents from engineering, natural science, social science and the humanities join forces to take on the wicked problems of tomorrow’s world, using their creativity to bring science to design for society. DesignLab’s aim is not only to develop ground-breaking products and applications. It also trains a new generation of designers, who combine profound scientific knowledge with creative design skills, an entrepreneurial attitude and the ability to anticipate the social dimensions of new technologies. To us, design is just as much a matter of research as it is an art. Truly meaningful and feasible innovations can only emerge from a symbiosis of high-tech science and a thorough understanding of the relations between technology, society, and people.

VR-Lab The Virtual Reality Laboratory (VR-Lab) on the University of Twente is a high-tech environment used to facilitate multi-stakeholder decision making processes. The inspiring lab makes it possible to present and discuss ideas using the latest audio and video technologies. The atmosphere of the lab can be changed by choosing the colour, intensity and location of the lights, in combination with multiple images or movies on one or more of the available projection screens or televisions. And sound can be directed from all possible angles. This can all be used to inspire the users to think outside the box. (http://www.vrlab.ctw.utwente.nl/)

S.G. Daedalus S.G. Daedalus is a study association of the education program Industrial Design (BSc) and Industrial Design Engineering (MSc) at the University of Twente. It currently has around 750 members, consisting of Bachelor students and Master students, lecturers and other employees. The annual influx is approximately 120 members. The main task of the association is to represent the interests of the student body in the field of education. This means that S.G. Daedalus evaluates the education, deals with complaints and questions and supplies study books and drawing materials. Besides this, S.G. Daedalus unites students with similar ambitions with the help of education related activities such as courses, workshops, excursions, lectures, symposia, study tours, design competitions, case-studies and brainstorm sessions. Furthermore, activities not related to education but to uniting the members of the association take place. These activities include drinks, parties, sporting events, game nights and movie nights. Finally, the association offers the students the possibility to gain organizational experience by taking place in commissions or on the board of S.G. Daedalus. Of all the members, more than a quarter is active on the board, in a commission or as an assistant during activities. The new look and enthusiastic attitude of these members ensures that S.G. Daedalus is a vibrant and active study association.

Industry S.G. Daedalus is keen to collaborate with companies. By doing so, the students gain insight in companies they could possibly work for in the future. By means of lectures, training, excursions, case studies and symposia knowledge from companies is transferred to the students. Moreover, for companies it is an interesting way to observe the capabilities of the students from Twente. Companies can profile themselves among students by promotion in the association magazine and by collaborating with the association in organising activities. There is also the possibility to let students perform a project for the company to gain experience in the field. This way, S.G. Daedalus gives the students more than just education and that distinguishes our students. In short, the study association exists for students and runs completely on their enthusiastic commitment. To enable all of this financially, S.G. Daedalus depends on companies that are willing to sponsor her. It’s not only about sponsoring, but S.G. Daedalus also wants to build up collaboration with companies, with mutual benefit, to motivate the students to look beyond the borders of their study. This way, we support the future Industrial Designers from Twente together.
Activities Every year, S.G. Daedalus organises a large amount of activities for her members. Below an overview of the most important activities is given.
The Glass StudIO The Glass StudIO of S.G. Daedalus is an event that takes place in the centre of Enschede. Within a transparent building various cases are solved by students Industrial Design (both BSc. nd MSc.). The goal is to let students gain experience in solving problems in the field of Industrial Design but also showing the inhabitants of Enschede what a design process involves at the university.
In 2013 the fourth edition took place with the theme ‘sustainability’ and this edition was very successful as well. The Glass StudIO has become one of the leading events for design in the Twente region in recent years. The Glass StudIO takes place in every uneven year so the next edition will be held in 2015.
Short European study tour During the period of the furniture exposition in Milan, S.G. Daedalus visits this city with a group of around sixty second-year students. Next to the furniture exposition they visit various companies and galleries. Of course the city itself (known as the design capital of Europe) is also experienced. The duration of this tour takes seven days in total.
International study tour The goal of the study tour is to gain insight in the field of Industrial Design globally. In advance of the study tour the students have to fulfill preliminary research which means they have to visit symposia and lectures to get enough background information for the study tour. During the tour the students will visit companies and universities every day to find out how Industrial design develops practically. This journey is a special and unique opportunity for students and a huge educational experience which occurs only once during their study. Every study tour is finished in the Netherlands with a symposium where students and companies will speak about the results of the research. To finance a part of the study tour the students fulfill case studies at various companies. These cases result in professional and useful material for the company. Moreover the company will receive a copy of both the preliminary and the final report. In June 2014 Study Tour Ke Nako travelled to South Africa.
