In addition to the programme, Innovation in Mind also offers various experiences for all your senses – some examples:
Don´t miss the lunches
The two luncheons during Innovation in Mind have individual themes. On day 1 we offer a healthy meal based on raw materials with documented health effects, in cooperation with the Antidiabetic Food Center at Lund University. On day 2 we will serve a climate-smart meal, based on raw materials, production methods and logistics that minimize carbon dioxide impact, in collaboration with Environmental and Energy Systems at the Lund Institute of Technology. Both meals have been composed and prepared by the skilled chefs at Flädie Mat & Vingård, just outside of Lund.
Space(s) Innovation Atrium Installation
The 30 hour workshop Space(s) Innovation takes as hypothesis that architectural and urban space comprises a capacity to foster innovative behaviours and mind sets. Mobilizing an interdisciplinary constellation of students, the workshop aims to test this hypothesis by claiming the neo-classical atrium space at the Universitetshuset as a site for experimentation that hosts a series of large scale constructions. By drawing from a set of traits that seems to be common to the disruptive innovators, Space(s) Innovation will merge the concept of prefabrication and on-site construction to produce an installation that investigates and communicates the generative aspects of space.
Learn about innovative birdwatching
Can you see the connection between Pentagon and a guillemonts breakfast habits? The Gps system, based on a positioning concept developed during the cold war, has enabled the development of an entirely new scientific field. Being able to register birds´ flight patterns in realtime will, among other things, mean entirely new opportunities to monitor climate change and its effects on biodiversity, spread of diseases and invasive species, all of which are fundamental issues to human societies .
