Did weaving give us the first computer code? Can circuit boards make music? How does clothes mending teach us geometric patterns? How can modern electronics be sewn into clothing?

 

This week-long program explores and celebrates the origins of modern computing, digital media and coding across a range of artistic disciplines. Artistic disciplines include weaving, sewing, textile repair, animation and music making.

This week-long program of library workshops is open to all.
