I once felt technology art faced greater challenges than other more permanent art forms, but I now understand that in the end—all art fails - Maggie Orth[2]

She looks form a designer perspective, thought art and technology .
I think she might forget not the art failt but the system of from art thought technology was't work out.
I belief also a system without technology is already a technology on his one.
Experimentation is also the key to found the possibilities of knowing.

For this document of Experimentation I just did. I don't know what will work out for my, A textile as screen. this Thermochromic Textiles feels in a way the best way to do. It wil be changeable, abel to touch and open for Experimentation.

Thermochromic Textiles

But what are Thermochromic Textiles?

The word "thermochromic"
Thermo comes from the Greek word "thermos," which means warm or hot.
Chromic comes from "chroma," meaning color. A thermochromic substance changes color as it changes temperature.
In fabrics, a special dye acts as the thermochromic agent.

Thermochromic materials change color reversibly, especially through the application of thermochromic dyes whose colors change at particular temperatures. Thermochromic materials using microencapsulated dyes were developed in the 1970s and subsequently have been used mainly in the textile and novelty industries [1]. The leuco-dye-type thermochromic system has been most commonly used, which undergoes a reversible change from colored to colorless when subjected to temperature raises [2]. Today, the thermochromic technology has been developed into the smart textiles era and the conjunction of electronic engineering can make an available range of new media for exploitation [3, 4]. [3]

Dyeing Textiles

Experimenting whit thermochromic pigments and thread.

I really don't know what to buy of what to use for threads. Because it it's so easy to find a dyeing process.

I fount this links:

pigments bought at:
This is form America and the tax is quite high, but nice pigments!
and a lot of choices

for just a experiment I advise to buy it in the UK :
