Here I am going to try to make a 3D loom and try to do a 3D woven fabric


Components:

- 2 frames made out of wood
- nail
- wooden plate
- hammer
- thread

How to use it:

1. I found a rope one the street and since I love re-use and re-mean the materials, I found a good idea to work with this one
2. I started quite regular and than exploring the other dimensions of the loom
3. And I am still doing it

This work is inspired by the following video which computer scientists explain how to sort networks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOxfdsBBjKI

My first effort was to try to understand and visualise how it works.

After I thought it would be nice to visualize it with threads
