Only minutes ago I snapped some pictures of some THREADONISM handycrafts, designed, hand-crafted and modelled by Janne. I feel that the interaction of hyperbolic objects with the human body is an important one, having the evidence - with you and on you - whenever you please. This interaction with the body is explored with jewellry, clothing, bracelets, necklaces, ear-rings etc. A kind of yarnbomb on the body, extending the possibility for communication of THREADONISM and some hyperbolic signifiers.
I can't help but notice the similarity between some coral and some flowers when looking at these images; the spiral contour of the threads, the soft tone and fluffy topology - perceived by the eye and the body, to touch with the hand and follow the threads, to - feel - the shapes and surfaces. This kind of interaction with threads, knots, patterns and shapes might be considered alongside the practice of yarnboming in the urban - mostly non-fabric coated - environment.
To entice the mind to reach out and touch, and to provide a tactile interface with the hyperbolic. non-euclidean models - left out there, somewhere in the city - for an accidental meeting with a remarkable stranger. (Which brings me to a short story I am writing about a group of radical all-female group of yarnbombers who take over a small city and transform it into a Temporary Autonomous Zone, where Objects are not what they appear to be, and the rationality and logic built around the new non-euclidean, non-aristotelian, synergetic principles of this group - weave together a Utopian society, for a brief period of time. I digress.)
