Innovation-Reflect writing

In the textile innovation lesson, I learn a lot about textile. It is a complete class of textile. It is intro ducted fibre source, different fabric and textile's functions. From this lesson, I gain great number of knowledge of textile. It improved my personal ability of knit. 
First of all,This section was told about where is fibre comes from. It is important for me to know where is the fibre comes from and how does people make fibre out of natural plant. The point of natural sources, fibre come from plant. This is a traditional way to produce healthy and sustainable fabric for human daily needs. I was really interesting in various fibre.I was focus on natural, sustainable and recycled fibre sources in my design project this term. I knew more about fabric. For example, how they comes out and how they has been developed . Now I can recognize some kinds of fabric. As for me, this is a great development to my ability of knit .
Secondly, this lesson also introduce other kind of fiber which different with commercial fiber.There is lots different plants sources mentioned on the lecture. Leaf, hemp, peat and seed hair etc. These fibre source comes from human daily life and it also offer good quality production to people. As the other fibre source like metal and paper. They have special function for particular area. Those non-traditional fibre sources attracted me to know more about the other part of fibre around the world.after the class,I main to discover some natural and sustainable plant. And I want to know how those plant became a fibre source. I really want to try some thing new in knitting or discover a new idea for myself from the material source.
At the end,  I was really great to know that how the textile interact with people. It is really important for me to know that textile is a media, they have their properties to offer to human daily life. It was told about how the textile interact with people. There is lots high technical textile can communicate with people, offer power source, soft interfaces function and etc.It is a good way to know the interactivities at first. Then I should think about what is the function and how it can be a media communicate with people.
Furthermore. I use the knowledge from the class into my design project. I made flet fabric and I made a process to achieve zero waste. I really enjoy the lesson also I think it is really useful for every textile student to learn.

Lecture 3&4

Interactivity

In this section, it was told about how the textile interact with people. There is lots high technical textile can communicate with people, offer power source, soft interfaces function and etc. Textile is a media to translate material function to human needs. It is a communication between individuals and sources. It was produced to be functional and useful, also has it's own purpose. That is means when I product my fabric I should think about where I use it and what can it do. For example, fashion is the most popular and visual function as people can see. However, textile can be more particular like monitoring and healthy function interact with people in medical care. Furthermore, Textile are using in lots place where invisible. This function that I do not know before this section. In this section, It is analysis several interactivities of fibre and how they works in our world.

As this section, I was really great to know that how the textile interact with people. It is really important for me to know that textile is a media, they have their properties to offer to human daily life. After this section, I knew lots different way can textile be interact with people. I was not only think about just make a fabric. And how I develop it. It should be what I should think about from now. It is a good way to know the interactivities at first. Then I should think about what is the function and how it can be a media communicate with people.

Lecture 1

Fibre Sources

In this lecture, I was really interesting in various fibre. This section was told about where is fibre comes from. It is important for me to know where is the fibre comes from and how does people make fibre out of natural plant. I was focus on natural, sustainable and recycled fibre sources in my design project this term. However, my knowledge of fibre and fabric was poor before I took this class. I was glad that I choose this class. Because after this lecture, I knew more about fabric. For example, how they comes out and how they has been developed . Now I can recognize some kinds of fabric. As for me, this is a great development to my ability of knit .
The point of natural sources, fibre come from plant. This is a traditional way to produce healthy and sustainable fabric for human daily needs. For example, wool come from lamb or sheep that thermal quality and organic also recycled. Also, from this lecture, It introduced those commercial fibre all have useful and valuable function. Like the super wool which mix of merino wool and polyester can be use for sport wear. It can keep people body warm and dry. Furthermore, wool can be separate into fine wool and waste wool. Waste wool also can produced into yarn for other function. Wool is a really nice sustainable fibre yarn. In this section, I knew about how the fibre made out and what the function of different yarn.
