Lynne Mennie
Lynne Mennie is a practising handloom weaver and trained scientist. Previous work in the field of human genetic data analysis gives her a strong understanding of data gathering, sharing and interpretation. She can understand how biological data is derived and how this can subsequently be used for knitted or woven textile pattern generation; and explain this process in ways that make it tractable to non-scientists. Lynne is interested in the process of ‘data-driven design’ and the constraints imposed by this on the creative process; and how co-design and co-creation can change how textiles are valued by end users
