ATELIER-E Pay Homage to Punch Card Origins with Laser Weaving Machine at HOLON Berlin

ATELIER-E’s light and sound installation LOOM (2022) opens at HOLON, Berlin as part of CTM/transmediale Vorspiel. Originally commissioned for Bocholt Textile Works, the “never-ending weaving machine” pays homage to Joseph Marie Jacquard’s programmable loom that revolutionized the textile industry. As lasers encode contextual information on motorized phosphorescent threads, ATELIER-E’s Daniel Dalfovo and Christian Losert invite reflection on craft, automation, and the long history of data-driven aesthetics.
