Hand stitched DOS commands
The 21st century equivalent of the 18th century’s “Home Sweet Home” – a hand-stitched version of the ‘tracert’ DOS command, which is normally used to trace the specific network points that join one computer with another computer on the Internet network. the electronic tracert journey is determined by IP addresses of destinations, & how many milliseconds it takes to reach them. for those appreciating the art of data visualization stitching, see also lorenz manifold or other clothing-based examples.

If you’re really in to creating and viewing your own panoramic movies VRmag has a lot of good articles, resources and movies (I found the free Windows based pano maker I was looking for there) – the site also uses a a panoramic movie to navigate the site as well.

The project section has a lot of great things to check out…Craft technology refers to the interweaving of computation with craft materials both new and old. This blending can take many forms, including the application of specialized software to aid in the design and construction of crafts (such as mechanical toys and paper sculpture) and in the creation of craft objects with embedded intelligence. Thanks Paul! 
Brother corp Japan has launched the Innovis range of sewing machines which connect to the PC via USB and can be operated via the PC. There are two models the “Innovis M200” and the “Innovis N150” A special embroidery add on can be attached to the N150 for complicated designs. There are preset designs in their internal memory such as Traditional Chinese and Japanese fonts, Patterns, Stitches and Mickey mouse. New designs can be downloaded from the company’s website which will be updated regularly with fresh designs. I wonder if you’ll be able to do your own designs too. [
Bob writes “Cornell student Levi Lorenzo wanted to do a project about MIDI music technology, so the project he came up with was to build a hamster controlled music generator. The hamster controller uses 6 hamsters to control 3 rythmic tones. One hamster controls the “rythmic qualities of the melodies”, and the other controls the note sequence. As the hamsters wander back and forth in their passages, the music created changes according to their position. The music is actually not bad!” [
