TED Archive | Creating materials through nature and technology | Elaine Ng Yan Ling @TEDTalks | Uploaded February 2018 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
TED Fellow Elaine Ng Yan Ling gives life to textiles, using heat, humidity and electricity as catalysts. She calls it “natrology,” a combination of technology and nature, showing how they work together to create magic. Her poetic materials express this delicate balance.
TEDArchive presents previously unpublished talks from TED conferences.

Filmed at TEDGlobal Fellows 2012.
NOTE: Comments are disabled on this video. We made this difficult decision for the TED Archive because we believe that a well-moderated conversation allows for better commentary from more people and more viewpoints. Studies show that aggressive and hateful comments silence other commenters and drive them away; unfortunately, YouTube's comment moderation tools are simply not up to the task of allowing us to monitor comments on so many videos at once. (We'd love to see this change, YouTube.) So for now, if you'd like to comment on this talk, please use Facebook, Twitter or G+ to discuss with your networks.
