Textiles

Roles: fiber, thread, weaver, loom, fabric, pattern, seam, tear

The craft of making cloth from fibers — spinning, weaving, knitting, stitching, and dyeing. Textiles predate written language, and their vocabulary has migrated into abstract domains everywhere: we weave narratives, spin stories, thread arguments together, and unravel mysteries. The structural richness comes from the fact that cloth is made by interlacing many individual elements into a coherent whole, making it a natural source domain for any composite intellectual product.
