I explore the transformation of our attitude to physical materials with the rise of digital technology through this interactive woven installation that reacts to its environment and starts to move without any touch. Reflecting on the disappearance of diversity in tactile cognition, digital technology as an agent indirectly creates connection, leaving behind the most basic form of perception associated with textiles: tactility. The movement in response highlights the structure of weaving itself.
