Code, Cloth, and the Loom: The lore and legacy of textiles and technology
by CJ Jensen | at Minnebar 19
We rely on pixels and binary code like it's water, but where did these concepts come from and why does it matter?
Learn the rich history of textiles and technology and how the two are intertwined. Will I influence you to pick up the knitting needles or join your local weavers guild? Maybe....come and find out!
