The reason I am interested in lacing is the relationship between the making of a mesh in 3D graphics and the making of a mesh with thread. In 3D graphics the mesh is made of vertices (triangles) drawn between points in three dimensional space. (Lace pattern are sometimes called Mesh Structures).

 

I am therefore interested in the wireframe like rendering that lace has.
The model is the making of a wall mounted surface across which the threads are pleated. The surface of the model is mapped on the surface of the computed environment.

Aesthetics of the equipment:

 

also really beautiful:
