Podcasts about Yarn bombing

'Non-linear' game tours city landmarks Around these parts, the term BYOB takes on a new meaning: Build Your Own Beacon. At the moment, it's a card game wrapped in a complex, ambiguous concept that could tax the minds of people versed in the immutable rules of poker, bridge or gin rummy. According to creator Chris Sanders, "it's a non-linear board game played with cards. The rules are flexible. No two rounds will ever be alike, and you can play it how you want." Sanders released a 25-card starter deck on Nov. 15 and at least two add-ons are coming, along with a five-panel board featuring 3-D game pieces and dials at each station that deliver prompts. She offers one, with a touch of sarcasm: "The New York Times publishes an article about how cool Beacon is, and everybody gets a game piece because here come the good times." Sanders, an animator, scientific illustrator and textile and visual artist for film and television, designed the cards last year to showcase something new for Beacon Open Studios. She sought advice from her friend's son, Eoin Williams, 12. "He told me that they could be used for a deck-building game, like Magic: The Gathering, where each player builds a deck that gets more complicated as it accommodates more players' cards," she says. In the same way, BYOB can be played with multiple decks, "so the game gets richer and becomes a full idea that never ends." Sanders and Eoin (pronounced Owen), aimed to combine elements of The Game of Life (1960) played on a 3-D board; Sim City (now The Sims), a video game that first focused on building infrastructure; and Yu-Gi-Oh!, perhaps the most popular card game ever created. Now that the card design is complete, the goal is to structure ways to use them and convey the concept to others with clarity, Sanders says. "No one knows how to play [the card game] Pokémon," says Eoin. "We just make it up." For Sanders, Eoin has been instrumental in the game's development: "He's a smart problem-solver who asks, 'What about this?' 'Where does that go?' or 'How do we get to the end?' " The images on the cards look like architectural drawings and the logo printed on the verso shows a transmitter protruding from the peak of Mount Beacon. Other obscure categories group the city's history into nicknames for four neighborhoods - River Rats, Ridge Runners, Mountaineers and Swamp Angels. "I saw pictures of people in a canoe," Sanders says. She figures the swamp - located behind what is now Rite Aid on Main Street - got drained before the Works Progress Administration completed the post office in 1937. The fine print on some cards conveys inside jokes, like the statement accompanying the Bicycle Christmas Tree card: "Check with the transfer station for components." The microscopic font on Pete Seeger's banjo reads, "This machine surrounds hate and forces it to surrender." Sanders's dummy light card includes the comment "No Yarn Ever," with an arrow pointing to the concrete base, a reference to the Yarn Bombing of 2015. Are those googly eyes on the edifice? On another card, a chicken is described as a "breakfast dispensary." A dozen artisanal eggs "equals valid currency, way better than zucchini." Chicken coops "may be simple or ridiculous," as needed. Though Sanders can be sardonic, she adopted the lighthearted approach with purpose. "I want it to be enjoyable on many levels, so that 5-year-olds to 50-year-olds to grannies can make it fun," she explains. "But there's still some editing, honing, perfecting and morphing." The Build Your Own Beacon starter kit is $25 at agoutistudios.com.

Quote: Art has always been my friend. Today I participate in ‘Yarn Bombing' projects.Ingrid Roze is a multi-faceted woman with many interests. Her parents came from Bulgaria and Latvia. Each found their way to Venezuela in 1948 where they met and married. It was there that Ingrid was born and remained until she was 12 when the family moved to the United States. She became a child psychologist. and primarily worked with Spanish- speaking communities and Arabic and Moorish cultures.Instead of private practice, Ingrid chose to work in public service, mostly in schools. She found a profession that she adored, becoming a psychologist because that's how she always thought. The insight was there before she chose psychology.  Art was always Ingrid's friend. She went to the High School of Art and Design and returned to tapestry, knitting and crocheting after she retired from her profession.Today, Ingrid participates in yarn bombing - crocheting roses for national and international projects on women's reproductive rights and women's freedom. Two examples are: “Roses to Stop Violence against Women” which is mounting 1 rose on each tree in the longest avenue in Mexico. Another, called the Liberty Crochet mural, is an image of the Statue of Liberty - substitutes the torch she's holding for a uterus with the title: Freedom to Choose. Ingrid, herself, posts crochet hearts everywhere she travels because “it throws a net of love over the world. Only love can drive out darkness Only love can drive out hate. Hate cannot drive out hate”.

In this episode, Ashley shares some things she learned about "yarning bombing". She also has poor audio quality from trying out a new recording set-up, whoops! Ashey used Crimes of the Senses: Yarn Bombing and Aesthetic Criminology by Andrew Millie, Craftivism and Yarn Bombing: A Criminological Exploration by Alyce McGovern, and this TED Talk by Magda Sayeg as key resources for this story.  We both recently read/listened to The Power of Knitting by Loretta Napoleoni (highly recommended!). We also briefly mention "The Racism Drama Unraveling the Knitting World, a well-researched Daily Beast Article. Ashley watched A Castle for Christmas - A Netflix Christmas Movie - which happens to mention yarn bombing!  Natalie and Ashley are both knitting Leave Gnome Stone Unturned by Sarah Schira. Ashley is also working on a set of Knitted Pinecones by Jesie Ostermiller. We are snacking on Dot's Pretzels (Natalie) and Trader Joe's Dark Stars (Ashley).

This week we hear about the statewide tree decorating/yarn bombing contest open to all Nebraskans.

These days textile production is mostly automated aside from some niche markets and craft production. Craft production of textiles today taps into a vision of a nostalgic past, often evoking memories of a time the audience member wasn't there for. It turns out this potent imagery has been used not just for inspiring hobbyist crafters everywhere to pull out the drop spindle and knitting needles, but also by political participants going back all the way to (at least) Ancient Rome to try to steer a particular narrative. Follow some of that history from past to present, and hear from Morgan about how the whole process of textile production works starting from raw materials... from sheep to sweater!Links and references:Suetonius, Life of Augustus; scroll down to section 73 for the secton on his humble furnishings and home-made clothing.Laurel Thatcher Ulrich.

What is yarn bombing? Have you ever heard of the term yarn bombing before? If you haven’t, I have a feeling we’re going to open up a whole new world to you, my guest and I. Yarn bombing is the act of wrapping an object in yarn to give it a new life or color. You’ll most often find yarn bombing in public places, where it can be admired. Now you may wonder, is yarn bombing illegal? Or is yarn bombing harmful? These questions and more are answered right here on this episode. Today’s Guest I’m joined by, London Kaye, The post Yarn Bombing with London Kaye appeared first on B.Hooked Crochet | Knitting.

직물예술가인 마그다 사예그는 색색의 뜨개질로 일상의 물건들을 덮어서 도시의 풍경을 자기의 놀이터로 바꿉니다. 이 따뜻하고 보송보송한 "뜨개실 폭탄(yarn bomb)"은 사예그가 사는 마을의 정지 표지판과 소화전에서 소규모로 시작했습니다. 하지만 곧 사람들이 이 예술작품과의 연관성을 찾아내어 세계적으로 퍼뜨렸습니다. 사예그는 이렇게 말합니다. "우리는 모두 바쁜 디지털 세상에 살고 있지만 여전히 친밀감을 느낄 수 있는 무언가를 갈망하고 원합니다. 숨겨진 힘은 가장 예상치 못했던 곳에서 찾을 수 있습니다. 그리고 우리 모두 발견되기만을 기다리고 있는 능력을 가지고 있습니다."

Textile artist Magda Sayeg transforms urban landscapes into her own playground by decorating everyday objects with colorful knit and crochet works. These warm, fuzzy "yarn bombs" started small, with stop sign poles and fire hydrants in Sayeg's hometown, but soon people found a connection to the craft and spread it across the world. "We all live in this fast-paced, digital world, but we still crave and desire something that's relatable," Sayeg says. "Hidden power can be found in the most unassuming places, and we all possess skills that are just waiting to be discovered."

L'artiste en textile Magda Sayeb transforme des paysages urbains en terrain de jeu en décorant des objets du quotidien avec des tricots colorés et des ouvrages en crochet. Ces emballages chauds et doux ont d'abord touché des choses simples comme des panneaux de stop et des bornes à incendie dans sa ville natale, mais les gens ont commencé à s'y intéresser et le phénomène s'est propagé dans le monde entier. « Nous vivons tous dans ce monde digital où tout va vite mais nous avons besoin et nous désirons quelque chose qui a du sens, » nous dit-elle. « Même les plus modestes recèlent en eux une forte énergie et des talents cachés qui n'attendent que d'être découverts. »

Magda Sayeg, artista têxtil, transforma paisagens urbanas em seu próprio playground, decorando objetos comuns com obras feitas de tricôs e crochês coloridos. Esses "yarn bombs" calorosos e felpudos começaram simples, em placas de trânsito e hidrantes na cidade natal de Sayeg, mas logo as pessoas descobriram uma conexão com essa arte e espalharam-na pelo mundo. "Todos vivemos nesse mundo acelerado e digital, mas ainda assim desejamos algo com que possamos nos identificar", diz Sayeg. "O poder oculto pode ser encontrado nos lugares mais simples, e todos temos habilidades que estão apenas esperando serem descobertas".

London Kaye is a classically trained dancer who discovered her passion for crochet at the age of thirteen. London received a dance scholarship to NYU and after graduation, dove into the local street-art scene. She began developing her signature style by crocheting on fences. She has adorned the windows of ABC Carpet and Home and has recently crocheted pieces for major brands including Starbucks, Miller Lite, Chex Mix, and the TBS Network.
