Abstract

The work investigates the reinterpretation of ancient textile practices, examining the development of visually and tactile architectures that incorporate coding and rhythmic elements. It aims to recode textile configurations by using traditional techniques to create hybrid storytelling textiles. By intertwining multiple narratives within soft architecture, a story of environmental disaster unfolds, showcasing the intersection of computational methods and environmental storytelling. Additionally, it highlights the convergence of traditional practices with contemporary computational methods, expanding the horizons of textiles and providing a platform for diverse voices and cultural perspectives to be woven into a tapestry of storytelling tectonics.
