Abstract
This workshop aims to explore how the material contexts and the bodily knowledge involved in weaving can contribute to our understandings of space and geometry. A key aim is to investigate relations between mathematical notions of hyperbolic surfaces and a looping technique that can be used to generate them. During the session we will get familiar with circular looping, and create our own hyperbolic surfaces whilst discussing their connections to mathematics and curvature.
