Collaborators selina latour and pascale tétrault reunite for the first time to show their work, which combines both textile and electronic practices. soft input presents sculptural works, archives of collaboration, and textile interventions which shed light on the work of computer science pioneers such as the first female programmers, operators, and most particularly memory-weavers. These works, inspired by binary encoding, repeated gestures, and analog technologies, imagine new machines, open-ended and sensitive.
