Stone Island AW'013_Ice Jacket_J Video

LOCATION: Biomedical Chemistry Institute_Cold Laboratory_NYC PREMISE: In the video the scientific procedure was juxtaposed with the thermo sensitive jacket to show how a chromatic change dynamically visualizes information. Just as the jacket's chromatic shift indicates a change in the environmental atmosphere, the chromatic range of the materials in a chemical procedure signals information about a cellular mechanism. Colour can be responsive and indicate a change of state such as a chemical change; or, it can tell you something about your environment. ICE JACKET - J - Stone Island extends its research on thermo sensitive materials to stretch fabrics. A water and wind resistant polyurethane film is embedded with micro-encapsulated pigments. The molecules of these pigments modify the passage of light and colour morph in relation to tempera¬ture changes. The film is bonded to a light polyester mesh base and is used to construct a garment insulated by a polyester fibre quilting. // LOCATION: Biomedical Chemistry Institute_Cold Laboratory_NYC PREMESSA: Nel video un procedimento scientifico è stato accostato alla giacca termo sensibile per mostrare come le variazioni cromatiche possano dinamicamente visualizzare delle informazioni. Proprio come il cambiamento cromatico della giacca indica un cambiamento nella temperatura dell'ambiente, la gamma cromatica delle sostanze nel procedimento chimico segnala informazioni sul meccanismo cellulare. Il colore può essere reagente e
