Cellulose fabric grown in a tank full of bacteria and FINALLY a video of 3D knitting!


This website is related to a current exhibition at the Science Museum which I have yet to visit (why are weekends in term time just too ridiculously full of other stuff to get to an exhibition??) but the website is fab, perfect for research homework or for adding in extra information to controlled task projects.

I loved the tracking of a garment idea to see what ACTUALLY happens to stuff when you take it to the charity shop. Most poeple are doing upcycling projects now but this takes it to the next level.

Follow the section on minimising waste for some great video clips, I have been trying to get a decent video clip of 3D knitting technology for years and the cellulose fibre grown in a tank is totally amazing.
