The World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos-Klosters is the foremost creative force for engaging the world's top leaders in collaborative activities to shape the global, regional, and industry agendas at the beginning of each year. In this regard, the Forum's mission—improving the state of the world—guides the design and development of the Annual Meeting objectives.

KnittedKeyboard will be presented as a part of ETH Zurich Pavilion's  RETHINKING CREATIVITY, an interactive exhibition at the interface of science and creativity. KnittedKeyboard is a piano-pattern textile that allows multi-modal sensing for musical performance. As a second iteration of the "FabricKeyboard," we explore the realization and applications of smart fabrics in interactive surfaces through computational design in digital knitting technology.

Joseph Paradiso will also be giving a talk (ETH Circle Spotlight) during the event. Attendance is limited by invitation only.
