Traces

This experiment aims to transpose some aspects of machine knitting on screen. It plays with the idea of a progressive construction and deconstruction in a loop that temporarily forms legible images. The long-colored strokes that emerge on screen and reveal the letterforms quickly intertwine. The strokes mix — like the tangling of threads — making the generated image illegible. But soon, and as if they were knitted, some of the letters start to unravel letting others show through.
