Teaching:
Sculptural Weaving: This course teaches various
three-dimensional weaving techniques to be applied towards sculptural
purposes. I teach this course as a
semester-long course or as short one/two week intensive workshops.
The emphasis is always on play, risk-taking and exploring materials
and techniques as opposed to finished work.

“Driven By Data: Nathalie Miebach on Basket Weaving and
Tinkering” - Q&A with Whitney Dail, August 2012
“Data, Visualization, Poetry and Sculpture” -
Recent blog by Dylan Schenker – I really like his take
on both Stefanie Posavec and my talks from the Eyeo Festival
this summer in Minneapolis. To find the poetry in information
without compromising its integrity as a factual thing is extremely
hard, because it requires letting go of controlling the outcome
of the visualization and allowing it to reveal contradictions
that one may not always understand.
