'In this male soft spoken ASMR video with hand movement, we explore the history of textiles, fabrics and clothing: - where fibers come from and how they were adopted by mankind, with special sections about the history of cotton, silk and wool. - how fabrics, their manufacturing and trade, influenced international relations and contributed to economic history. - the evolution of clothing and a few things it tells us about Western societies since the 15th Century. Gail Rotschild\'s website: https://www.gailrothschild.com/ Her next international exhibition will take place in 2021 at the Bode Museum in Berlin. It will feature large paintings of ancient textiles alongside the originals.
