To the best of my recollections, Paola did not mention bio-textiles specifically. She did have some photographs of bio-things covering parts of objects, like moss on a copper pitcher and a particularly furry three legged chair. I'm sorry, I do not remember the artist's names.
The panel I went to right after the keynote: http://schedule.sxsw.com/2015/events/event_IAP35674 with Pauline van Dongen - she is printing fashion, but trying to do so in a way that very directly mimics biology and kinetics. Her work is great, but not exactly bio-textiles. Though she talked about forms of weaving of threads in cloth and how it related to the weaving of 3d-printed strands made to mimic natural structures. Hope that helps :) Bz On Fri, Mar 13, 2015 at 11:49 PM, Kath O'Donnell <[email protected]> wrote: > thanks for your report.
