Becoming diagram: Experimenting with diagrams to explore geometrical and topological concepts in tapestry weaving
Résumé
Interpreting and generating diagrams are key skills in both mathematics and crafting. This paper examines the ways in which diagrams are used by a novice weaver in learning to work on a tapestry loom. Highlighting the active and experimental qualities of mathematical diagrams in the writings of Charles Sanders Peirce, the paper explores how sketches, gestures, and experimental weaving 'become diagrammatic', generating ideas that are mathematical and material all at once.
