"Weaving is Digital" ~ Teshome Gabriel and Fabian Wagnuster

QUOTE: "In fact, despite the newness often attributed to computer technology, much of its vocabulary, as well as that of the internet, draws on relational concepts borrowed from back-strap weaving. Terms such as texture, pattern, layering, links, nodes, sampling, net, network, web, web weaver, and threads belong to a lexicon employed in both weaving and computing. On a structural level, they both rely on the use of crossing, interweaving lines" ~ Teshome Gabriel and Fabian Wagnuster
