  1. 1. Radiant Textiles : Designing electromagnetic textile systems

    Author : Erin Lewis; Tincuta Heinzel; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; smart textiles; electromagnetism; textile design; design methods; artistic research; Textiles and Fashion Design ; Textil och mode konstnärlig ;

    Abstract : To regard the electromagnetic domain of conductive textiles is to unlock a realm of expressive possibilities. The underexplored area of the electromagnetic domain in con­ductive textiles implies that numerous computational and electronic textiles created thus far possess untapped capabilities. READ MORE

  2. 2. Changeability as a quality in textile design

    Author : Riikka Talman; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Textiles and Fashion Design ; Textil och mode konstnärlig ;

    Abstract : The tendency to wear out and change is inherent in most materials, but – aside from a few exceptions – has been considered to be undesirable by both the industry and consumers. The work presented in this licentiate thesis suggests that, due to change in some form being an inherent property of textiles, it may be viable to look for alternative ways of designing and perceiving textiles that accept change as one of their qualities.

  3. 3. Designing for changeability in textiles

    Author : Riikka Talman; Hanna Landin; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Textiles and Fashion Design ; Textil och mode konstnärlig ;

    Abstract : The tendency to wear out and change is inherent in most materials, yet textiles are usually designed to retain a single expression. Within an experimental, practical work, materials that are inherently changeable were used to create woven and knitted structures in order to approach textiles from the perspective of changeability and explore what this might mean for the field of textile design.
