Kathleen Loomis, she of great quilt art, recently posted an article on her blog about animated embroidery. I have to say I was a bit skeptical. However, after watching this bad%ss video called Tharsis Sleeps, in which each frame is directed and created by the artist on an embroidery machine, I had to gasp in wonderment. I particularly love his quote that was posted on the Junkculture blog:
“I completely ruined any kind of social life,” Livesey says of the creation process. “I haven’t spoken to anyone in the past few months. This is the most ridiculously stupid idea.” - Nicos Livesey
