Speaker: Mar Canet, Knitic

Description:
The talk is about the role of knitting in the field of digital fabrication and its' potential. Fab Labs and makerspaces are a lot about hard-surface object production. At the same time, the 1st digital fabrication tool, which is an electronic knitting machine back to 1976, has been forgotten and discontinued. Hence, the presentation will give an over view on knitting machines development, especially from the perspective of open hardware and makers' culture.
