Take a journey into how ancient textiles function as living programs. We examine Andean backstrap weaving and Japanese ikat not just as art, but as sophisticated algorithmic systems: from on-the-fly debugging as a weaver adjusts a row, to pre-dyed patterns that compile into the fabric. We connect motifs as macro-operations, recursion in repeating motifs, and the idea that pattern grammars underpin both cosmology and modern CAD-driven looms. A reminder that computation isn't just electronics—it's a human practice woven into cloth.Note: This podcast was AI-generated, and sometimes AI can make mistakes.
