Created by Dutch designers Aliki van der Kruijs and Jos Klarenbeek, the Kadans 2.0 research project examines the potential of raw scientific data: Can detailed measurements of the motions of the North Sea be transformed into something widely accessible, such as textile?

Can you weave with water? Through their custom Weaver software, they now can weave the motion of water. Their experiments with waves and wool have produced different types of patterned fabrics that mimic, with painstaking precision, specific moments in
