Srishti organized a three-day workshop and conference on Applied IT in Textiles. The aim of the event was to explore the dynamic space that would be created, by the merging of rich textile traditions from India and the cutting edge IT industry.

The conference introduced artists, designers, technologists and students to the field of interactive textiles, electronic textiles and wearable computing that is changing the aesthetics and functions of textiles.

Rachel led one of three workshops on responsive textiles and traditional textile crafts along with Barbara Layne from Hexagram and SubTela in Montreal, Canada, and Clive Van Heerden from Philips Design.
