EPOCH: A 'MOVE SLOW & MAKE THINGS' APPROACH TO CODING by Sophie Nadel

Epoch explores the relationships between traditional and newly-emerging methods of making. Beginning with a dataset of 5000 punch card designs, creative technologist Sophie Nadel uses a GAN system to generate typographic knitting patterns. The resulting typeface can then be knitted by hand or machine, completing the cycle between the computer-generated and the material. Through the lenses of textiles and typography, Epoch presents a model for how artists can utilise emerging technologies, without large AI models, to deeply connect with their tools as a knitter might pick out yarn for a project.
