Story of Inventing–MultiWeave
MultiWeave is a textile technique inspired by 3D printing that enables the creation of sculptural, layered forms using only warp and weft. Developed through hackathons and university research, it invites collaboration, experimentation, and invention. This lecture explores its evolution and creative potential—showing how tools, teamwork, and curiosity can reshape textile practices for the future.
