About the Event
SCALES in Textiles is a three-day conference hosted by Aalto University, bringing together the ArcInTex network and the Beyond e-Textiles project. The event will be held in person from April 8–10, 2025, in Espoo, Finland.
This conference invites participants to explore the multiple scales inherent in textile innovation - whether through physical scales, from nanomaterial manipulation and fiber development to the integration of textiles into wearable technologies and extensive IoT systems, or through temporal scales, as we rethink material life cycles and longevity. It also challenges us to reflect on the balance within our research choices: how we weigh and prioritize competing needs, and how we bring together perspectives that range from the generalisable to the deeply personal.
