Abstract

This project explores the nuance of human-AI collaboration using domestic knitting machines alongside a simple, task-based, AI algorithm addressed through the research framework of more-than-human design. The textile design task is to use a broad range of knitting techniques to develop textile prototypes that mimic sea slugs, specifically the New Zealand nudibranchs Jason mirabilis and Dendrodoris krusensternii, both chosen for their colourful, organic looks. The final outcome consists of a series of textile swatches and prototypes along with a booklet documenting the digital patterns and thought processes of the development.
