TextEdit Textiles
Winter 2008
TextEdit Textiles is a collaborative project by Aylor Brown and Arend deGruyter-Helfer. DeGruyter-Helfer used TextEdit, the default Macintosh text editor, to create
digital pattern drawings, some encoded with personal wishes, and Brown used Photoshop and a computerized Jacquard loom to translate these drawings into cloth.
The result is both a physical archive of the intangible and a dialogue between two friends on the materialization of desires.
