TEXTILE TRADITION INDIGENOUS TO SOUTH AMERICA
Andean Textiles
The Andean textile tradition once spanned from the Pre-Columbian to the Colonial era throughout the western coast of South America, but was mainly concentrated in Peru. The arid desert conditions along the coast of Peru have allowed for the preservation of these dyed textiles, which can date to 6000 years old.
Examples of use of E-textiles
1. It would be particularly difficult to find a market for e–textiles that emit light, as most display technologies currently do.
2. While the technology isn‘t ready and the fashion industry seems uninterested now, "There‘s a market for [e–textiles]," says Maggie Orth, CEO of International Fashion Machines (IFM). An ordinary garment that incorporates an electronic display, however, "isn‘t yet on the horizon." Projects like urbanhermes explore the possibilities of electronic fashion from a blue–sky academic perspective, while IFM wrestles with the economic difficulties of integrating technology into clothing that will sell for more than the fabrication cost.
