Abstract
This work explores the juxtaposition of craft and technology through weaving to create speakers. Following a research-through-design approach, we developed a material recipe and weaving-based technique for speaker construction. To understand how this juxtaposition can be utilized to arouse curiosity and promote the exploration of technology through making, we conducted a hands-on speaker weaving workshop with 10 experienced makers. From this workshop, several woven speakers were generated and discovered that the integration of that integrating craft materials with electronic components fostered an acceptance of imperfection and sparked curiosity, encouraging participants to explore different ways of building electronics.
