Rug Talk in Los Angeles
January 2005
Saturday January 21st 2006 I spoke to TGLA
Inc. the Los Angeles rug and textile collectors
group. This was a pleasure for me. I tend to
stick to family, church, work and my rug notes
and avoid rug events but it is good to get out
and test ideas with a broader audience. That was
what this trip was about. I have come up with a
theory that tribal and village weaving is a
non-verbal language that follows rules just as
spoken languages do.
The other part of this trip is to see my
friends. It is funny that we live in a day and
age where we can have close friends that we have
never seen. I decided that by giving some talks I
will have an excuse to see people that I care
about.
