Virtual Knitting
knitting in virtual and physical space
2008-09
Knit cloth is tangibly constructed from series of knit and purl stitches. Code is constructed from intangible sets of zeros and ones. Here users are able to knit in both physical and virtual space at the same time, constructing both tangible and intangible cloth. The motion of interacting with the knitting needles as an input device for the computer references other of my works that relate to human/ machine interaction. This project was created with generous assistance & support from Jon Bird, Creative Systems Lab, University of Sussex, and Kyle Jennings.
