5 Ws who, what, when, where, why¶
how is what you will start defining in your process pages
who¶
- Personal experiences
- People who have an intimate relationship with water
- Swimming or diving underwater as a way to connect with water
- Can be applied to any type of underwater immersion
what¶
- Physical representation of the relationship with water
- Personalized textile artifact/ garment that functions as a material record of movement and identity
when¶
- During the inmersion
- During aquatic movement
- During data recording and translation
- Period from January to March
where¶
- The project operates across multiple environments:
- In water, where movement originates
- On the body, where the object is worn, activated, and aged
- In the fabrication lab at IDIT Ibero Puebla, where patterns and materials are developed
why¶
This project responds to the need for textiles that: - Are deeply connected to the body that generates them - Resist anonymity through personalization and embodied data - Value time, care, and long-term use
Tip
check out these project concepts pages from Fabricademy participants of previous years.

LABAN MOVEMENT ANALYSIS¶
(LMA) is an effective framework for observing, describing and understanding human movement and what it expresses. It is widely used in the fields of dance, theater, dance therapy, physical therapy, sports, and psychology. It was proposed by Rudolf Laban, who is considered as the most important movement theorist of the twentieth century and the founding father of modern dance in central Europe. He considered human movement as both a science and an art that embraces a continuum from nature to spirituality. I believe that this system aligns with my project on the study of movement in swimming as a structurable body language, as it provides a theoretical basis for the idea that movement can be analyzed, broken down, and translated into visual systems.
Maite Sosa Methol`s¶
Maite Sosa Methol's “Movement” project (Fabricademy MVD 2021) inspires the idea that body movement can function as a parameter for generating geometry and design, showing that movement data not only analyzes but also formalizes and materializes design processes.

remember to resize and optimize all your images. You will run out of space and the more data, the more servers, the more cooling systems and energy wasted :) make a choice at every image :)
