I thought it would be good to make a thread with links to similar/related resources.
Starting with the “culturally situated design tools”:

Found via this excellent talk by Ron Eglash:

(I think this resource might fit in a couple of threads). Check out the fascinating algorithmic pattern relationship between Gee’s Bend quilts, Kente cloth, and Jazz music: [Gee's Bend Quilts | CSDT](https://csdt.org/culture/quilting/geesbend.html)
@yaxu you might enjoy this!

Not just about patterns, but some nice visualisation bibilographies:
- [A Visual Bibliography of Tree Visualization](https://textvis.lnu.se/)
- [Text Visualization Browser](https://textvis.lnu.se/)
- [Visual Survey of Visualization Techniques for Time-Oriented Data](https://vcg.informatik.uni-rostock.de/~ct/timeviz/timeviz.html)

This looks like a lovely annotated bibliography that I’m looking forward to diving into: “Notes on craft and interaction design” by Jorgen Löwgren:

Small world 🙂 Jonas selected me for my PhD in 2015 (he left my university shortly after) and he was my defense/viva opponent in 2020. He and his peers were very much aligned with the Swedish craft or ‘slöjd’ perspective to interaction design back in the day. I can also recommend his other paper on interaction aesthetics.
