Description
Techno Textiles 2 showcases the latest developments in the field. Here are new textiles for fabrics that shrink or expand to fit; textiles developed from carbon, steel, glass and ceramics; materials that protect the wearer from every environmental extreme, anywhere on earth or in space. nd is profusely scattered with interesting illustrations, all in colour. Now this foray into the realisation of futuristic fancy is available in paperback.
The book is divided into three sections: innovations which explores how the newest textiles are dreamt up and made, applications from fashion and design to architecture and art, and a reference section including a glossary, biographies, directories of addresses and public collections and an extensive bibliography. Neophilia is a wonderful thing, and from Marcel Wanders' Sponge Vase to Stelarc's Ping Body - where the artist's body movements are determined by internet activity - there is lots of fab stuff here.
