Research Context:The work forms part of a more general development and interest in the use of high technology materials and processes that challenge our perceptions of art, technology and science within traditional textile and design related disciplines. This research will examine the use optical fibres as well as its associated technology and explore laser cutting techniques with new yarn types to further exploit creative lighting effects within woven fabric.The application for Research Leave is to provide essential time for the applicant to pursue this research. A Creative Development Grant from the Scottish Arts Council has already been awarded to contribute to associated material costs towards the development of new research work within this area. The Research Leave will allow further essential work in this area to continue and realise this research as a commissioned Artwork, following a national short listing, for 'The Cutting Edge', Scotland's Contemporary Crafts exhibition. The exhibition will tour nationally throughout the UK, and has the potential to tour internationally.Research Aims:To develop a range of new and innovative woven fabric which exploits coloured lighting effects in conjunction with unusual yarn types, optical fibre and laser cutting techniques;To create novel time-based aesthetics which challenge our perceptions of art and technology through creative, artistic development; To produce an artwork which addresses the possibility of programmable colour and lighting effects and which successfully humanizes and imaginatively exploits these technologies to bring about a heightened visual awareness.Potential Applications and Benefits:The research outcome will be of interest not only to artists but more product led designers, particularly within the field of textiles and within lighting design including academics involved in the development of multidisciplinary practiced-based design research. It will also be of benefit to those interested in all aspects of craft and design, collectors of crafts, pupils studying craft, technology and design and their teachers, art students and members of specific craft societies as well as the general public. It is anticipated that the research will inform and educate a greater awareness within this field and further inspire new development within contemporary craft practice and design.

研究背景：这项工作是对高科技材料和工艺的使用的更普遍的发展和兴趣的一部分，这些材料和工艺挑战了我们对传统纺织和设计相关学科中的艺术，技术和科学的看法。这项研究将探讨光纤的使用及其相关技术，并探索新纱线类型的激光切割技术，以进一步开发编织织物中的创意照明效果。申请研究休假是为申请人提供必要的时间进行这项研究。苏格兰艺术理事会已经提供了一笔创造性发展赠款，用于支付在这一领域开展新的研究工作的相关材料费用。研究休假将允许在这一领域进一步的基本工作，继续和实现这一研究作为委托艺术品，以下国家入围名单，为'切割边缘'，苏格兰的当代工艺品展览。展览将在英国全国范围内巡回展出，并有可能在国际上巡回展出。研究目标：开发一系列新的和创新的编织面料，利用彩色灯光效果，结合不寻常的纱线类型，光纤和激光切割技术;通过创造性的艺术发展，创造新颖的基于时间的美学，挑战我们对艺术和技术的看法;制作一件艺术品，解决可编程色彩和灯光效果的可能性，并成功地人性化和巧妙地利用这些技术，以提高视觉意识。潜在的应用研究成果不仅对艺术家感兴趣，而且对更多以产品为主导的设计师感兴趣，特别是在纺织品领域和照明设计领域，包括参与多学科实践设计研究的学者。它也将有利于那些对工艺和设计的各个方面感兴趣的人，工艺品收藏家，学习工艺、技术和设计的学生及其教师，艺术学生和特定工艺协会的成员以及公众。预计这项研究将在这一领域内提供信息和教育，并进一步激发当代工艺实践和设计的新发展。
