Punch-Sketching E-textiles [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Fifteenth International Conference on Tangible, Embedded, and Embodied Interaction, 2021
Tangible toolkits enable individuals to explore concepts through combining components together and taking them apart. The strength and limitation of many e-textile toolkits is that threads hold them in place, and once put together they need destructive methods to take them apart. In this paper, we propose Punch-Sketching e-textiles, a drawing technique

E-textile tooling: new tools-new culture? [PDF]

open access: yesJ Innov Entrep, 2017
The maker movement in recent years has shed light on the blurring boundaries between crafts, creativity, and technology. Tools are a key part of the creation process, shaping both our process of making and the objects we make. They do so through their form and material influence, the matter they can handle, as well as the skills needed to utilize them.
