Abstract

Fabrics are fundamental elements of our daily lives, which are woven, knitted, or embroidered into diverse products like clothing and furniture. Recent advances in materials science and digital fabrication have enabled us to fabricate personalized and responsive fabric products computationally and interactively, which we call “computational tailor-making.” In this workshop, we will build an interdisciplinary network of researchers on computational tailor-making and discuss (1) computational fabric design, (2) novel fabric fabrication tools, (3) shape-changing fabrics, and (4) sustainable fabric production, from the viewpoint of HCI. The workshop session will help attendees build a shared vision, recognize potential challenges, find unexpected solutions and ideas, collaborate beyond disciplines, and explore the possible connection to industries.
