District Innovation and the knowledge economy The aim of the Interreg IIIC DISTRICT project is promoting a new shape to the industrial clusters and leading them towards the Knowlodge Economy. The project has started in 2005 and includes Lead Partner Tuscany and other three partner regions West Midlands (United Kingdom), Saxony (Germany) and Västra Götaland (Sweden).

Refunding can take place only from a new relationship among nature, architecture and computer science. To achieve this goal the project proposes an interactive environment in which the new-primitive visitor enters into a sensitive space that is acousticly activated through a series of primordial movements of the body. A series of movements of the inhabitant activate an acoustic morphing of natural sounds to their mirroring artificial states. University: Dipartimento di ARCHITETTURA Facoltà di Architettura L.
