The kiss of the Hotel de Ville

3D Model

This is possibly one of the 100 iconic images of the 20th century and certainly the image with which Parisian society of the last century has identified. Robert Doisneau. 1950, Paris, France, Europe.

We would like to introduce you to Silknow a project funded by the European Union as part of Horizon 2020, research and innovation. Led by the UV (University of Valencia) and which has had the difficult mission of merging the history of silk with robotics, recovering and making known to the society of today and tomorrow the secrets and textile patterns of silk. This precious product that made it possible for East and West to closely exchange their cultures. The influences of those long journeys continue to this day.

And which today put within our reach the heart of this research, the virtual loom.

This is intended as a small tribute to the intellectual and cultural avant-garde.
