The Fold, Michael Varga
Inhalt
The fold is, one could say in an exaggerated way, the representation of textile behavior and a widespread »criterion« whether a thing or a process has at least textile features.
»No.1/3 The graphical Fold« is a font on an experimental level based on the phenomenon of wrinkling when writing on textile with a felt pen. In this part of the project the fold is communicated by a gap.
»No. 2/3 – The threedimensional Fold« is a backpack made of Velcro loop fabric and emphasizes the textile qualities of threedimensional foldability and formal adaptation to objects.
»No. 3/3 – The virtual Fold« deals with the question of how the design of real textile surfaces can be inspired when virtual textile phenomena from the CAD software Blender are simulated into our real world? In this part of the project the fold is communicated by a cut.
