From Fiber to Yarn: A Discussion Between Textile, Biology and Design
Experimental Yarns Workshop / Part 1 on 16 October 2020
Experimental Yarn was planned as an interdisciplinary exchange on the idea of fibers and yarn: How are fibers and yarns being formed and how do they perform inside a material system. By discussing and comparing approaches from specific disciplines - Textile Technology, Biomaterials and Design - we aimed to transgress the disciplinary boundaries and explore new fields for research and application.
We cordially inviteed researchers from the Cluster and KHB students to join the event and discuss the input together. Friday, October 16th, 2020, 10:00 am–3.00 pm.
The workshop was organized by Christiane Sauer and Mareike Stoll in the framework of Weaving.
