An international screening of video art and animation pronouncing textiles as data-woven objects and speculating the future of fabric in the digital age. Each of the five works in the program employed a visual language of surface, pattern and volume to reflect and amplify the digital media that powers it. What emerged was a forecast of a world (not so long from now) where information and its interfaces behave fluidly yet with structure, like a richly sewn cloth conforming to the body.

 

The Cloaked In Code program was also accessible to an international audience, hosted on the Subtle Technologies website from May through August, 2016.
