Beskrivelse
In this presentation, I will discuss how it is possible to work with textile sampling based on scenarios starting with a lot of WHAT IF’s, and how to work with the expected properties of a yarn that does not yet exists.My research is an ongoing textile study under a main Nordforsk research project, called Beyond e-Textiles, which is conducted in a cross disciplinary collaboration with a team of researchers within the fields of Design, Textile and Art from Center for Creative Industries & Professions at VIA Design & Business, and scientists from the Universities Alto in Helsinki and Boräs in Sweden.
Based on existing literature in knitting and weaving, I have been experimenting with existing techniques with an exploratory approach, mimicking future yarns and their expected properties. In the knitting and weaving workshop at VIA, I have been able to work with textile prototyping and performance testing.
There are two main purposes in my textile study. One is to gain insight and knowledge through sampling and prototyping that potentially can contribute to the development of the yarns developed by the scientists under the main Project Beyond -textiles. The second purpose is to gain insight that potentially can lead to the development of new recommendations and/or manufacturing methods where the yarns developed and their properties can be included. In my
presentation, I will share with you research approach and my preliminary textile findings.
