The Re-mix talk and exhibition held in Fukuoka in March 2017 presented the findings of the on-going research and knowledge exchange involving IDE-RCA and Kyushu University in Fukuoka to an audience of academics and designers. The talks given by Prof. Yasuyuki Hirai, Savina Torrisi and Tokusu Inamura focused on the creation of impactful innovation as a result of processes of hybridisation. For the purpose of this research study, 'hybridisation' refers to the blending of design practices that strongly reflect key societal and behavioural aspects of the respective originary cultures. The event acts as an introduction to the Re-mix Symposium that will take place in Tokyo in July 2017.
