Growing Patterns: Textile Design With Living Pigments, Julia Moser, Karin Fleck, Irene Posch
Growing Patterns: Textile Design With Living Pigments, Julia Moser, Karin Fleck, Irene Posch
Textile Intersections Conference Series
A turn towards the development of sustainable textile dyes moved new pigments into the centre of attention – the pigments metabolised by pigment-producing bacteria. In this paper, we present practice-based research that aims at expanding the field of textile dyeing with living bacteria through exploring possibilities for intentional pattern design. Experiments were guided by two research questions: RQ1: How can the use and combination of different textile fibres influence and enable textile pattern development with bacteria? RQ2: How can textile surface manipulation techniques be used for pattern design with living pigments? We show a series of 40 different samples that …
Methods For Designing Woven Textile-Forms: Examples From A Pedagogical Textile Design Workshop, Juri-Apollo Drews, Holly Mcquillan, Aurélie Mosse
Methods For Designing Woven Textile-Forms: Examples From A Pedagogical Textile Design Workshop, Juri-Apollo Drews, Holly Mcquillan, Aurélie Mosse
Textile Intersections Conference Series
When designing Woven Textile-forms, both the 3D object and the textile it is composed of need to be de-veloped simultaneously, a process requiring an adaptation of currently established methods from both textile and fashion design. This paper provides an overview of existing examples for woven form-construction approaches through the lens of fabric (non-)rectangularity. It subsequently presents the method of flattening a 3D form into a weaveable 2D format, and the alternative weaving methods of Modular Weaving, Non-binary Weaving and Multi-selvedge Weaving destined at constructing non-rectangular seamless Woven Textile-forms. It further describes a range of associated prototyping and visualisation techniques including …
Sensory Textile-Bacterial Hybrids: Textile-Bacteria Fusion To Impart Forest-Associated Scents, Paula Nerlich, Angela Sherry, Michael Deary, Ruth Morrow, Jane Scott
Sensory Textile-Bacterial Hybrids: Textile-Bacteria Fusion To Impart Forest-Associated Scents, Paula Nerlich, Angela Sherry, Michael Deary, Ruth Morrow, Jane Scott
Textile Intersections Conference Series
This research paper presents a study on the development of living textile-bacterial hybrids, focusing on the scent produced by Streptomyces violaceruber, a bacterial species, throughout its growth phase. The objective of this study was to observe scent profiles of S. violaceruber on two different fibres, cotton, and linen, and analyse the potential impact of fibre properties on scent profile, intensity, and duration. In doing so the research suggests potential opportunities to curate living scent through textiles and the generation of sensory textile-bacterial hybrids. Interdisciplinary methods were applied to compare changes in the volatile compounds present and identify fibres and fabrication …

This case study is an example of ongoing collaborative initiatives between the Kyoto Prefectural Institute for Northern Industry, Kyoto, Japan working with the international network created by the annual Textiles Summer School (Cassim et al, 2017) in Kyoto initiated and directed by Julia Cassim to explore new weave and product possibilities using the weave, yarn and technology of Tango chirimen crêpe, a traditional kimono fabric from Kyoto and the Japanese Jacquard loom. Written from a technical standpoint, it centres on the challenges of interpreting and realising the concept of the lead designer / educator to create a hybrid silk fabric …
A Variable Weaving Reed For Producing 3d And Seamless Garments, Gali Cnaani, Yoav Sterman
A Variable Weaving Reed For Producing 3d And Seamless Garments, Gali Cnaani, Yoav Sterman
Textile Intersections Conference Series
As a parametric medium, weaving contains different parameters. Some of these parameters may be changed, and others are fixed. The orthogonal angle between the weft and warp yarns is considered a fixed parameter. This angle is derived by the weaving reed. The reed determines the warp density and the weave width. This paper introduces the concept of a three-dimensional, variable reed. The reed affects the weaving structure by varying the density of the weft yarns across the woven fabric. Our reed is designed in a way that allows the dents to move back and forth during weaving. Changeable cardboard stencils …
From Handcraft To Digital: Transforming Spatial Crochet Into Cutting-Edge Technology, Tamar Nix, Aaron Sprecher
From Handcraft To Digital: Transforming Spatial Crochet Into Cutting-Edge Technology, Tamar Nix, Aaron Sprecher
Textile Intersections Conference Series
In the past decade, additive manufacturing processes have exhibited immense potential by pushing the boundaries of material exploration. Involving the construction of volumetric objects through adding flat knitting machines has gained recognition as an additive manufacturing technology since they possess the unique capability to directly fabricate three-dimensional articles from yarn. Nevertheless, while flat knitting machines have made significant strides in the production of three-dimensional textiles, they still face hurdles in handling intricate structures, achieving large-scale production, and accommodating a wide range of yarns. This article proposes crochet as a feasible substitute for knitting in multi-scale applications, owing to its inherent …
Woven Variables – Investigating The Influence Of Conductive Float Arrangements On The Performance Of Woven Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors, Jingting Ma, Emmi Pouta, Ramyah Gowrishankar, Yu Xiao
Woven Variables – Investigating The Influence Of Conductive Float Arrangements On The Performance Of Woven Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors, Jingting Ma, Emmi Pouta, Ramyah Gowrishankar, Yu Xiao
Textile Intersections Conference Series
This paper investigates how conductive float arrangements, specifically the float length and float side, affect the performance of double-weave piezoresistive pressure sensors. While previous research has explored float variations in simple weaves, there is a lack of knowledge on the role of these variables in multi-layer yarn arrangements commonly used in pressure-sensitive functional weaves. We conducted a control-variants experiment by constructing two sets of double-weave piezoresistive pressure sensor samples with variations in float arrangements and evaluated their range, sensitivity, and reproducibility. We demonstrate how adjusting the float length and float side can allow the same three-layer piezoresistive sensor to perform …
The T-Shirt Feels Rough, It Can’T Be Breathable – Exploring The Perception Of Sportswear, Lars Claussen, Alex Lloyd, Daniel Ruiz, George Havenith
The T-Shirt Feels Rough, It Can’T Be Breathable – Exploring The Perception Of Sportswear, Lars Claussen, Alex Lloyd, Daniel Ruiz, George Havenith
Textile Intersections Conference Series
To better understand the perception of sportswear, this paper presents a comprehensive case study comparing the quality of sports t-shirts made from virgin polyester, mechanically recycled polyester and mechanically recycled polyester containing ocean plastic. Based on a field trial, controlled laboratory tests, and physical evaluation, the complex process of garment perception and the challenges of testing it were explored. The features offered by the different levels of garment evaluation were highlighted. The findings from the different levels of garment evaluation led to the hypothesis that in a scenario where consumers interact with sportswear primarily by touching and trying it on, …
Seaweed Dialogues, Alberte Holmø Bojesen
Seaweed Dialogues, Alberte Holmø Bojesen
Textile Intersections Conference Series
In 2023 it is a well-known fact that seaweed has become part of many theories of how to rebalance our ecosystems. However, it is not a material most people willingly or frequently interact with. Seaweed has in some ways become this abstract “saviour”, but how can we concretely and consciously use something we do not know, have not felt, smelled, or understood? The objective of Seaweed Dialogues is to breach this gap of the unknown, initiating a sensorial dialogue between human and seaweed, posing the question of what seaweed is and can be. This project has transformed into an extensive …

The current fashion system, which has developed through the last decades, is characterized by producing cheap, indifferent products with planned obsolescence, devalued almost before they reach a user. There is no doubt that the fashions system has a massive negative impact on our nature and environment. To correct the current imbalance between fashion and nature, a radical paradigm shift appears to be crucial. This paper presents two cases that from different perspectives challenge and explore ontologies related to clothing with the intention of challenging current perceptions and understandings of what clothes are and thus contribute to establish an alternative fashion …
W(Hole), Matter And Its Absence In Woven Textiles, Ariane Camille Fourquier
W(Hole), Matter And Its Absence In Woven Textiles, Ariane Camille Fourquier
Textile Intersections Conference Series
Weaving is a binary approach to being, in which a perpendicular entanglement of threads allows for cloth to exist. For millennia, the primacy of threads has shaped the making of woven textiles. However, a seemingly inherent element has been overlooked: negative spaces. In this reflection, such places relate to ‘holes’ or the empty spaces adjoining warp and weft. Drawing on textile theory, language, mathematics and the question of emergence, the paper critically explores the ways in which weavers understand weave structure construction. Seen as an absence, a ‘not-something’ as opposed to a ‘nothing’, how can we capture the woven hole? …
Recrafting Textile Futures: Caring And Repairing As A Way To Design, Donna Maione
Recrafting Textile Futures: Caring And Repairing As A Way To Design, Donna Maione
Textile Intersections Conference Series
Textiles and clothing, are produced through a global supply chain that is both extractive and linear, embedded in an economic model leading to exponential growth in waste across every stage in the supply chain. Often sustainable textile solutions and innovations are coupled with economic development, making the movement from linear to circular appear as a descending spiral to waste that plunders the earth. Eco-modern solutions meant to reverse the damage caused by the mass production of clothing need a repositioning toward a longer horizon. This paper explores ways to transition toward reparative practices through craft and recrafting processes, reflection on …
Design For Disassembly – Exploring A Critical Designer’S Agency Through Adversarial Design To Produce Athleisure Clothing Within A Circular Economy, Wajiha Pervez
Textile Intersections Conference Series
This research looks at circular economy innovation in athleisure garments, a hybrid of athletic and leisure clothing. The increasing uptake of athleisure garments as everyday clothing contributes to the environmental crisis at a scale that perpetuates the unsustainability of fast fashion due to their extensive use of plastic-based textiles. While the industry might claim to shift towards sustainability and circular economy in athleisure clothing, the approach is predominantly inclined towards perpetual growth and recycling, which promotes recurring cycles of consumption and production. The research is framed by Adversarial Design theory by Carl DiSalvo which proposes that critical designers use their …

Mapping The Benefits Of Collaborative Textile Research In Aotearoa New Zealand, Angela Kilford, Sonya Withers, Tanya Ruka, Faith Kane
Textile Intersections Conference Series
The idea of value chains within textile production, informs and directs much textile design research. This discourse has developed to respond to a growing desire to modify the textile value chain towards a more circular model (Alves, 2022). Although necessary to advance circularity, focusing entirely on value chains, precludes any vision of developing what we term a benefit chain. Focusing on a benefit chain, rather than a value chain could lead to new research frameworks in textiles research that move us towards addressing systemic injustices caused by capitalism, imperialism, and colonization, to which dominant modes of design continue to contribute …
Unpacking Strategies For E-Textile Design For Disassembly, Daria Casciani, Wei Wang
Unpacking Strategies For E-Textile Design For Disassembly, Daria Casciani, Wei Wang
Textile Intersections Conference Series
The demand for E-textiles is anticipated to experience substantial growth in the future, particularly in the realm of sports and fitness applications. However, the increased usage and rapid obsolescence of E-textiles could result in a substantial accumulation of electronic textile waste, leading to environmental and health risks if not properly managed. The recycling and disposal of E-textile waste currently face significant obstacles as existing normative, classifications and technologies have not adapted to this new waste stream. To address these challenges, researchers have proposed the implementation of eco-design principles from the early stages of product design, emphasizing waste prevention through design …
