 hakti Ziek[/caption]\n\nJoin Cranbrook Academy of Art in  deSalle Auditor
 ium on Tuesday\, October 7\, at 6pm for a free\, public lecture by Bhakti 
 Ziek (CAA MFA Fiber 1989)\, "From Backstrap to Jacquard: The Influence of 
 Technology on Weaving."\n\nAlthough the fundamentals of weaving have remai
 ned unchanged since its inception thousands of years ago (a warp thread is
  up or the warp thread is down)\, the technology of weaving has evolved fr
 om manual methods to digital technology.\n\nZiek has co-authored books on 
 both the backstrap loom and Photoshop as a tool for jacquard design\, and 
 she has experimented with many types of looms for her work. This lecture w
 ill take you through her journey as she explains how these tools have infl
 uenced her work\, and why she asks herself\, before starting a project\, "
 What is the appropriate loom/tool for this idea?"\n\nA graduate of Cranbro
 ok Academy of Art's Fiber program\, she will also discuss how her Cranbroo
 k experience influenced her work and continues to reverberate in her life.
