Almost all new clothing is made for mass-production processes and created within highly standardized and large-scale technical facilities. The projects aims to showcase how the emerging field of digital fabrication can create alternative solutions in the fashion industry. Manual labour is extremely invisible in the supply-chain of big textile production. We want to reclaim the production to enhance personalisation, agency and to avoid overproduction. Alongside with the idea of open source technology as a usable tool for creating personalized projects.

_The Machine
The machine is a mechatronic device designed to navigate the delicate balance between the digital and the physical realms. It’s capable of controlling art mediums along the x, y and z, offering a unique interplay between automated precision and the nuance of the artist.
It is built of aluminum extrusions, standard components, a microcontroller and 3d printed parts. The brain of the machine is a microcontroller with a open source, embedded, high performance g-code-parser uploaded to it

SABOT is a Copenhagen based upcoming brand that creates handmade garments and custom-made styles with a focus on material composition, sourcing sustainable materials and playing with identity and visual dogma. We want to use fashion as a frame to work with different ideas and conditions, everything from challenging normative body ideals to widening production possibilities through tech in fashion like 3D printing and laser-cutting. Our methods are investigative an pragmatic and the visual identity of SABOT wish to challenge dichotomies like organic/synthetic masculine/feminine, natural/technical through a lens of techno feminism.
