Went to see Rachel Beth Egenhoefer's project on Saturday in the end. Unfortunately some of it was being taken down (it was the last day) but I managed to see one thing which was really cool.

Aluminium knitting needles acted as an input device, with stitches registered on the computer as a series of '0's and '1's (binary like my project). This data was then used to produce designs on cloth.

Essentially the final cloth pattern was the computer's interpretation of the stitches being fed into it. Is this a creative exercise?
