ThreadTech 3

Overview

Clothes: whether it’s your overworn and almost outdated Wranglers, or the broached and revived polka-dot dress from the 70s you embezzled from your mother, they separate us from the animals. On the contrary, in the case of those flamboyantly antiquated, painfully hip individuals that we all know too many of, clothes can also make us look like animals. Regardless, everybody’s just looking for something different. Everyone wants to stand out, be noticed, be admired, which is why there is such a demand at the moment for unique designers and an escalating number of home mod enthusiasts.

However, if you’ve been looking for something really out there, something that might even overshadow Gaga, then ThreadTech 3 is for you. If you haven’t heard of ThreadTech before, what they do is take a very literal approach to brightening up of your wardrobe. Previous workshops have employed the use of conductible thread, matched with LED lights to weave some dazzle into your chosen piece of clothing.

In ThreadTech 3, this more advanced workshop will exercise sensors such as light and motion sensors to even further vitalise and customise your outfit. So if you’re free this Saturday, take a walk along the river to the Edge - just watch out for paparazzi when you’re done.
