Media: Hand-woven cotton, rayon, conductive yarns, silver ink, hand printed water based thermochromic ink, custom drive electronics (version 2) and expressive software. 8 eight-pixel units. 54" x 54" x 4".
Barcode Man has sixty-four hand woven textile pixels. It is woven on black and white weave.This piece is an1exploration 1f how software can reveal different paterns and variations contained in a single textile. Woven motifs are stretched in the horzontal and then printed in similar colors. The yellow state shows all pixels printed with yellow "on". In the half checker state, 4 of 8 pixels per panel are"on". Woven conductive yarns on the back layer of the double weave structure create softer color change effects. These effects take longer to trigger, (the heated yarns are on the back) which creates an event in time through weave structure, not software. |
