Disappearing dress codes, customers as designers and wearable technology; in recent years the production and function of clothing has undergone massive change. New manufacturing technologies have brought bespoke design within reach of many consumers for the first time. Miniature sensors can turn ordinary garments into smart devices. And blurring gender roles and class distinctions point the way towards a more fluid approach to clothing, fashion and design. The Future of Clothing offers a critical introduction to these developments from an interdisciplinary perspective, engaging with their implications for the clothing industry and related fields. You'll learn how mass-personalization impacts the luxury market, the effects of automation on craftsmanship and how AI design may affect individual style choices.Contributors include fashion historian, author and broadcaster Amber Butchart, adventurer, ecologist and head of the Sculpt the Future Foundation David de Rothschild, and best-selling author Yuval Noah Harari. There are also 8 exclusive illustrations by Salvador Dali, depicting the surrealist master’s extraordinary vision of how fine-tailored clothing might evolve in the 21st century. Together they form a truly unique guide to the future of this most creative industry.

Sport hat den Menschen seit jeher durch spielerischen Wettbewerb auf die Herausforderungen des Lebens vorbereitet. Aktuell ist der Sportsektor jedoch von beispiellosen Veränderungen geprägt: Steigende Gesundheitskosten, technologische Disruptionen und der Klimawandel stellen existenzielle Risiken für Gesellschaft, Wirtschaft und Umwelt dar. Kann Sport dazu beitragen, einige der grössten Probleme unserer Zeit zu bewältigen?Wahrscheinlich ja — denn auch die Welt des Sports befindet sich an einem Wendepunkt: Algorithmen entscheiden auf und neben dem Spielfeld. Die Machtverschiebung nach Asien wird die Organisation, Finanzierung und Ausübung von Sport fundamental verändern. Und Athleten werden zunehmend virtuelle Plattformen nutzen, um selbstbestimmter denn je zu agieren. Die Publikation Brave New Sport zeigt auf, dass die nächste Generation des Sports das Potenzial hat, den Weg in die Zukunft vorzuzeichnen. Dabei geht es nicht nur um die Integration des Sports in die öffentliche Infrastruktur oder die Sensibilisierung des Publikums für Nachhaltigkeit, sondern auch um ein verändertes Verständnis darüber, wie Maschinen und Menschen künftig interagieren — das heisst wie Sport die Gesellschaft im 21. Jahrhundert voranbringen wird.

Sport has always prepared people for their life challenges through playful competition. Today, the sports landscape is embedded in a context of unprecedented change: rising health care costs, techno logical disruptions, and climate change pose existential risks for society, economy, and environment. Can sport empower humanity to tackle some of the biggest issues of our time?The answer might be yes – because the world of sports is also at a tipping point. Algorithms will replace human decision-making processes both on center stage and behind the scenes. The rise of Asia will reshape how sports are organized, financed, and performed. And athletes will increasingly use virtual platforms to act more independently than ever.Brave New Sport indicates that the next generation of participation and spectator sports has the transformative potential to lead the way into the future. This involves not only integrating sport into the public infrastructure or sensitizing audiences for sustainability, but also redefining how humans interact with autonomous machines – in the bigger picture of how sport will empower 21st century society.
