It's going to be a special one and if you are nearby I think you should definitely join us.

A GPS trace of cycle couriers, plotted in 2005 by @openstreetmap.bsky.social to fundraise their plan to make an open map to encourage Ordnance Survey to release their UK maps under an open license. In the end they just mapped the world.. This was supposed to be signed, they must have missed mine..

I've been thinking a lot about this (partly) analogue modular system for 3D printing by Maas Goudswaard.

On the way back from a very fun two weeks working with Kristina Andersen and Pei-Ying Lin in Eindhoven, exploring live interfaces for weaving in the tc2 loom..

If you're near Sheffield (or know anyone who is), we're doing a winter school in Jan/Feb on patterns across heritage and contemporary technology. Totally free for participants.
Open call: patternclub.org/2024/10/29/a...
We'd love to bring together a range of experience levels + backgrounds !

Still a few tickets left for Pattern Club Live in Sheffield this Sunday
