In an era of increasingly available digital resources, many textile
designers and makers find themselves at an interesting juncture
between traditional craft processes and newer digital technologies.
Highly specialized craft/design practitioners may now elect to make
use of digital processes in their work, but often choose not to
abandon craft skills fundamental to their practice, and aim to
balance the complex connection between craft and digital processes.
The essays collected here consider this transition from the
viewpoint of aesthetic opportunity arising in the textile
designer's hands-on experimentation with material and digital
technologies available in the present. Craft provides the
foundations for thinking within the design and production of
textiles, and as such may provide some clues in the transition to
creative and thoughtful use of current and future digital
technologies. Within the framework of current challenges relating
to sustainable development, globalization, and economic constraints
it is important to interrogate and question how we might go about
using established and emerging technologies in textiles in a
positive manner.
