Text+Textiles+Technology Workshop: "Threaded Ecologies"

Please join us for Text+Textiles+Technology: Threaded Ecologies, a workshop organized by postdoctoral fellow Hayri Dortdivanlioglu (Society of Fellows, Studio Art) that investigates the ecologies of text, textile, and technology through weaving as a mode of material inquiry into technology's agency in co-generating new ways of knowing across disciplines. Moving beyond metaphor, the workshop positions weaving as an embodied, material, and epistemic method that bridges making and thinking. Through collaborative mapping, hands-on weaving, and critical dialogue, participants trace connections among fibers, codes, and concepts to reimagine how knowledge is produced, transmitted, and embodied. The project convenes artists, scholars, designers, and practitioners for a two-day workshop and week-long residency.
