Lana Schneider discusses the use of algebra as a design element in textiles.

Artlandia
Artlandia software creates graphic designs and patterns from your recipe.

CAD/CAM's Effect on the Jacquard Weaving Industry
A paper by Karl Nooman that discusses the effects of the computerized jacquard loom on the textile industry.

Woven Rope Friezes
Mathematical shapes and symmetry are displayed in woven rope patterns.

Complex Weavers Study Group
Weavers turn to the fertile field of mathematics to enrich their ideas for cloth as weaving embodies many mathematical ideas and poses interesting and non-trivial problems.

Computational Fabrics
Bob Metcalfe ponders the idea of using textile technology to weave computers, or TANs - textile area networks of nanocomputers.

E-Textiles
Exhibits featured at Convergence 2002, in Vancouver, BC displayed fabrics designed by computer.

Light Blankets
A new technology uses LED lights for baby blankets.  The light patterns and colours are controlled by computer chips and can be varied. The blanket reacts to the movements of the child and soothes them to sleep.

Plane Patterns - Mathematics & the Liberal Arts
Analysis of symmetry can be helpful in understanding archaeological art and how it relates to the development of patterns in textiles.
