Destined for OHM2013.nl -- I want to make a workshop for collecting T-shirts, collaborative sewing, and making a HUGE quilt out of the old, geeky T-shirts!

Description

Geeky T-shirts come mainly in black and white, but, with age and nonchalant washing practices, they end up in being in the *Fifty Shades of Gray*.

Quilt will be 5x10 field of patches of T-shirt cut-outs, ranging form black to white, and with 8 more columns in between.

Brainstorm

  • We might include some BDSM practices in the workshop, too ;-)
    • ripping the t-shirts instead of cutting?
    • making the blind-folds of the black t-shirts?
    • mod shirts with zippers, nails, safety pins
  • Get the "50 shades of grayscale" picture as a logo ;-)
  • With this theme we should/could do something with leather
    • leather wristbands with nails (e.g text TechInc)
    • or wristbands with LEDs
