Floating Fibres

Floating Fibres was a ACW-funded R and D project, working with a lacemaker and coder to create a ‘river blanket’ and lace samples based on atmospheric data and OS maps. This project explored using open source technology to look at Cardiff's rivers through textiles and question our relationship with our city rivers.
