Crossmedia Vertiefung WS 2011/12

Mit einer genial einfachen Idee wollen zwei Berliner Jungunternehmer der Textilbranche zum Durchbruch im Internet verhelfen. Ihr Dienst UPcload vermisst Menschen per Webcam, genauer als ein Schneider. Der Dienst könnte das Shoppen online revolutionieren – wenn die Branche mitmacht.

Guten tag zusammen! Ich bin Sui aus Hong Kong
Es ist mein erster Blog hier

Mein Projekt ist über Reusing T-Shirts – bisschen von meinem Prozess (es ist ein Buch)…

(now changing to Englisch)

While I was working on my book, I saw an interesting project on Google Reader, it is FABRIC Project by textile designer Stéphanie Baechler

The designer first makes patterns with several pieces of cloths on wall, then take photograph of it, after few testing procedures she prints out the final pattern on a piece of new cloth and cut it out.

This is probably the best part of her project because from this step you’ll reckon the final piece of cloth cut out is extremely flexible.
You can wear it in any forms! And the main thing is the fabric is beautiful I believe I can buy fewer clothes if I have this piece of beautiful magic cloth! x)
