Third-year M.Arch student Alexander van Odom speaks with Felecia Davis, Assistant Professor at the Stuckeman Center for Design and Computation in the School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture at Penn State and the director of the university\u2019s computational textile lab (SOFTLAB@PSU), in advance of her lecture at the school on September 13, 2018. \nThey discuss the interdisciplinary and collaborative nature of computational textile design and how her work has transformed concepts of how we communicate, socialize and use space. \n\u201cTo work in conjunction with other people is super important as an architecture student. And maybe try some things that you think are related to architecture, but you aren\u2019t quite sure how yet. Go out on a limb. There\u2019s so many different phenomenon going on right now that I think belong to architecture, but we\u2019re not quite sure how to grapple with them.\u201d\u2013Felecia Davis
