  • The Revolt of the Artefacts Andrea Canepa
    June 12th - July 23rd, 2021 The revolt of the artefacts Andrea Canepa Spindle and spinning. Knots and data. A span of many millennia lies between the first cultivated cotton yarn dating back to 4200 BC, found in the archaeological site of Ancón, Peru, and the transoceanic connection of the Marea cable laid between Bilbao and the state of Virginia, USA, in 2018. The times and places are so far removed from each other that only a ghost could visit them, yet, nevertheless, they can be woven together through their fibres: the organic thread used by pre-Hispanic native peoples in their weavings, and the fibre optic that transmits digital information at 160 terabits per second. Material and algorithm are entwined in similar coding processes based on patterns, in the weaving of a fabric as the core axis of their structures. This is the analogy that underpins the story told by Andrea Canepa, who begins by recovering a phantasmagorical and rebellious spindle of ancient myth and using this artefact to give a woven-body to the immaterial information on the fluctuating value of the cotton futures market. In the imaginaries of the Moche and Japanese worldviews, when objects usurp control, taking on their own agency, which is to say, arrogating the power to act in the world, they pose a real threat to man. The myth of “the revolt of the objects”, as depicted in one of the mural paintings in a temple of the Moche culture in northern Peru, as well as in some ceremonial ceramic vessels, tells how one night, a long, long time ago, tools rebelled against their masters, throwing off their shackles as slaves only to enslave humans.

  • Tuti Weaving
    Bridges Finland Conference Proceedings Tuti Weaving Abdalla G. M. Ahmed∗ Oliver Deussen Department of Computer and Information Science, University of Konstanz, Germany Abstract We present a new idea for the algorithmic design of weaving patterns that is based on AA Outlines. The method takes advantage of their inherent property of having only a few distinct rows and columns. In contrast to a prior Bridges paper, we describe a new approach for extracting weaving patterns from AA Outlines, and we add colors of yarns as a design parameter. The resulting patterns can be non-periodic, are free of long floats, and can be woven in looms with only two shafts. Introduction Weaving design is a good example of a topic that bridges math and art: the goal is to produce aesthetically pleasing woven patterns, and the way woven fabrics are structured and produced lends itself well to math- ematical abstraction. Unsurprisingly, a large number of articles have been dedicated to the mathematics of weaving design. Ralph Griswold compiled a huge collection of literature of this kind [10], and contributed many articles by himself. Another prominent example is the website compiled by sarah-marie belcastro [5]. The Bridges conference also published some articles in this area, for example [2, 4, 8]. In this paper we contribute a new technique for algorithmic weaving design. We describe a new family of bicolor patterns that are readily weave-able in 2-shaft looms. This family is closely related to AA Bitmaps [4], but here we introduce a new design idea and furthermore we utilize yarn colors to reduce the number of shafts and to control floats.

  • Textile, a Diagonal Abstraction: Glass Bead in Conversation with T'ai
    JOURNAL > SITE 1: LOGIC GATE, THE POLITICS OF THE ARTIFACTUAL MIND | 2017 Textile, A Diagonal Abstraction: Glass Bead in conversation with T’ai Smith T’ai Smith For decades, textile work barely figured in discussions and studies of modern art because textiles have historically been linked to women’s work, domesticity and what could be called a “feminine sensitivity”. However, contrary to the traditional image of textiles as rooted in diligent care, intimacy, and intuition, textile practices are logical and iterated operations, structural processes produced through mechanical and engineering decisions, much more than affective expressions of homely pragmatism. Their recognition as an art form only really occurred at the end of the 1990s with the emergence of the network as a major contemporary figure and the increasing attention given to the way in which algorithmic processes shape our contemporary condition, as well as from a revival of interest in craft and design which gave textiles a new significance, releasing them from the margins of modernity. Because of their common genealogies and operations, the interaction between developments in computing and textiles opened new fields of research between textile experimentations and digital technologies. We invited T’ai Smith to discuss how textile practices can both reorient our understanding of the modern project and, as a rule-based art, help provide direction to the artefactual elaboration of its future. Textile, A Diagonal Abstraction: Glass Bead in conversation with T’ai Smith | T’ai Smith Glass Bead: In your book Bauhaus Weaving Theory: From Feminine Craft to Mode of Design (2014), you investigated the weaving workshop’s history, highlighted its central position within the school, and positioned it as a major theoretical engine for the modern project at large.
