Digitally knitting a solar-active canopy | LUMEN Part 2 of 4 | AT THE MUSEUM

LUMEN’s large canopy is made up of over a thousand digitally knitted photo luminescent cells that change color in the presence of sunlight. See how the cells are produced at Shima Seiki, a garment manufacturer that specializes in seam-free knitting technology.

Check back this Friday to see LUMEN’s canopy being raised at MoMA PS1!
