This is the first piece in a series that explores the techniques that I use in my Jacquard weaving. The Jacquard designs that I create have a direct connection to the punched card Jacquard looms of the 1800’s, and the first example of images created from data, as a kind of early form of digital image. This expands on what is considered a personal computer and what is considered a digital image.
Created with vintage paint software from 1990-91: Ultrapaint for 68k Macintosh and Deluxe Paint IV for Commodore Amiga. This work also uses colour range/palette cycling, and speaks to the history of paint software for early personal computers. Kristen's work is a living document of the processes associated with historic software for early personal computers.
Created in the standard Amiga scale 320x256(x2), 2021
