My documentation¶
This is the website gathering all my documentation for Fabricademy 2023–2024 course that I follow at the node Green Fabric in Brussels.
Final project: Strip-p-ed out¶
«Strip-p-ed Out» is a project researching patterns which can bypass human recognition of Computer Vision. What does a CCTV see? Does it really see humans or…? Can we fool its eye? Look at the camera which is looking at you looking at it. I eye I eye I eye I…
- Draft
- Planning
- Quick & Dirty prototypes
- More prototypes
- Kniterate experiments (semi-industrial knitting machine)
- Final proposals
A booklet of this research is available here (print it from the browser when you land on that page).

About me¶
![Photo by Ludi Loiseau portrait](images/home/VilayphiouS-small.jpg)
Trained as a graphic designer and media designer, I worked for ten years with Open Source Publishing making websites and visual identities using only Free and Open Source Software. I also teach Digital Design at École de Recherche Graphique where I guide students into experimenting free software for graphics, hybrid publishing (web2print). Since 2020, I joined Green Fabric, a textile fablab in Brussels. There I like to jump from machine to machine, but I focus mainly on machine knitting.
