Digital art gets physical—and fashionable—in Phillip Stearns' latest glitch textile innovation, Binary Scarves. The line of twill winter accessories is styled after 50/50 binary noise, giving its pink and yellow or blue and gray color combos a Tetris-like pattern. "The concept is super simple," he tells The Creators Project. "Chaos and randomness as structure." He began making these winter fashion statements by simply cutting up his popular glitch-inspired blankets, but now he's expanded production directly to the TextieLab Netherlands, where he plans developing many more designs based on a slew of different data sources and algorithms.
