AWAY | TAKIY — Raise the Curtain for Weaving
In September 2018 the Bolivian weaver and media artist Sandra de Berduccy will visit the PENELOPE Team in munich. She will work in the PENELOPE laboratory and produce an interactive textile installation while the Project team (Ellen Harlizius-Klück and Giovanni Fanfani) will explore the algo-rhythmic and arithmetic properties of ancient pattern weaving and choral lyric.
De Berduccy learned from South Americam master weavers and combines traditional Andean weaving techniques with conductive threads that function as capacitive sensors and produce sound.
The PENELOPE team is a research group situated at Deutsches Museum and investigates weaving as an early digital technology. Among the outcomes is a digital pattern control system (the pattern matrix) and PENELOPEan robots that can demonstrate the fundamental binary logic of weaving.
The exhibition at the end of the residency of Sandra de Berduccy, „AWAY | TAKIY – Vorhang auf für die Weberei“ presents the artwork she created during the time in the PENELOPE Lab.
We plan to do an experimental interactive performance with the pattern matrix controlled PENELOPE robots dancing to the algo-rhythm of an ancient Greek poem on the occasion of the exhibition opening on 9. October (which is at the same time the Pre-Opening of the RODEO Festival Munich).
In Cooperation with RODEO Munich
The visit of Sandra de Berduccy is funded by a residency at the Ebenböckhaus of the city of Munich and by Goethe Institute Bolivia
