MUSAE aims to set up a Planet-People Centered Factory Model, based on the Design Futures Art-driven (DFA) method to support companies in addressing future challenges in the food industry and improve people and planet wellbeing. MUSAE will establish a deep connection with the S+T+ARTS ecosystem, bringing together expertise in design, art, nutrition and emerging technologies. MUSAE will run 2 S+T+ARTS residencies involving 20 artists and 10 tech companies working with 3 main technologies – Artificial Intelligence, Wearables, and Robotics – to envision 10 future scenarios create 10 fully tested innovative prototypes. To validate replicability, MUSAE will set up and activate the Factory Model within the Digital Innovations Hubs (DIHs) partners and create the Factory Model Pack that will allow other DIHs to adopt it.
