Intro to TC2 Class

January 7th-11th | 9am- 5pm (with 24 hr access to the DWL and TC2 loom)

Instructor: Cathryn Amidei

Cathryn meets each student where they are, making this class ideal for both those new to digital weaving and those looking for a refresher.

Praxis has two digital looms, giving each student the opportunity to work on both machines and gain valuable hands-on experience. Students will learn how to create and work with design files, explore aspect ratio, and develop a better understanding of the digital weaving process through hands-on sampling.

With ample one-on-one instruction from Cathryn Amidei, students will have personalized guidance throughout the class, allowing them to work at their own pace, ask questions, and build confidence with digital weaving. Participants should bring a laptop with photoshop installed.

Instructor Bio: Cathryn has been studying and weaving and teaching in Jacquard technique for 15+ years. She held a faculty position at Eastern Michigan University until 2018. She is currently the director of the Digital Weaving Lab at Praxis Fiber Workshop and provides technical support to artists and Universities in North America when they purchase a loom.
