Forget Shopping. Soon You'll Download Your New Clothes | Danit Peleg | TED Talks

In the past few months, I've been traveling for weeks at a time

I de seneste måneder har jeg rejst i ugevis

with only one suitcase of clothes.

med kun en enkelt kuffert.

One day, I was invited to an important event,

En dag var jeg inviteret til en vigtigt begivenhed

and I wanted to wear something special and new for it.

og ville derfor gerne have noget nyt og særligt på.

So I looked through my suitcase and I couldn't find anything to wear.

Jeg kunne intet finde i min kuffert.

I was lucky to be at the technology conference on that day,

Heldigvis var jeg til en tech-konference den dag,

and I had access to 3D printers.

og havde adgang til 3D printere.

So I quickly designed a skirt on my computer,

Så jeg designede hurtigt en nederdel på min pc,

and I loaded the file on the printer.

og jeg sendte filen til printeren.

It just printed the pieces overnight.

Den printede delene i løbet af natten.

The next morning, I just took all the pieces,

Morgenen efter tog jeg alle delene,

assembled them together in my hotel room,

og samlede dem på mit hotelværelse

and this is actually the skirt that I'm wearing right now.

og det er faktisk den nederdel jeg har på lige nu.

(Applause)

(Klapsalver)

So it wasn't the first time that I printed clothes.

Så det var ikke første gang, jeg printede tøj.

For my senior collection at fashion design school,

Til min kollektion ved på designskolen,

I decided to try and 3D print an entire fashion collection from my home.

valgte jeg forsøgsvis at 3D printe hele kollektionen hjemmefra.

The problem was that I barely knew anything about 3D printing,

Problemet var, at jeg næsten intet vidste om 3D printning

and I had only nine months to figure out how to print five fashionable looks.

og kun havde ni måneder til at finde ud af at printe fem moderigtige design.

I always felt most creative when I worked from home.

Jeg arbejdede altid mest kreativt derhjemme.

I loved experimenting with new materials,

Jeg elskede at eksperimentere med nye materialer

and I always tried to develop new techniques

og jeg prøvede altid at udvikle nye teknikker.

to make the most unique textiles for my fashion projects.

til at lave de mest unikke tekstiler til mine mode projekter.

I loved going to old factories and weird stores

Jeg elskede at tage til gamle fabrikker og butikker

in search of leftovers of strange powders and weird materials,

for at finde rester af underligt pulver og finurlige materialer,

and then bring them home to experiment on.

og så tage dem med hjem for at eksperimentere.

As you can probably imagine,

Som I nok kan forestille jer,

my roommates didn't like that at all.

kunne mine bofæller ikke lide det.

(Laughter)

(Latter)

So I decided to move on to working with big machines,

Så jeg besluttede at gå videre og arbejde med store maskiner,

ones that didn't fit in my living room.

som ikke passede ind i min stue.

I love the exact and the custom work I can do

Jeg elsker det præcise og specielle arbejde

with all kinds of fashion technologies,

jeg kan lave med alle slags designteknologier

like knitting machines and laser cutting and silk printing.

såsom strikkemaskiner og laserskærer og print af silke.

One summer break, I came here to New York for an internship

I en sommerferie havde jeg i New York en praktikplads

at a fashion house in Chinatown.

hos et modehus i Chinatown.

We worked on two incredible dresses that were 3D printed.

Vi arbejdede på to utrolige 3D printede kjoler .

They were amazing -- like you can see here.

De var fantastiske - som I kan se her.

But I had a few issues with them.

Men jeg havde lidt problemer med dem.

They were made from hard plastics and that's why they were very breakable.

De var lavet af hård plast og gik derfor let i stykker.

The models couldn't sit in them,

Modellerne kunne ikke sidde i dem

and they even got scratched from the plastics under their arms.

og de fik skrammer af plastikken under armene.

With 3D printing, the designers had so much freedom

Med 3D print havde designerne stor frihed

to make the dresses look exactly like they wanted,

til at lave kjoler præcis som de ønskede dem,

but still, they were very dependent on big and expensive industrial printers

men de var stadig meget afhængige af store dyre industrielle printere

that were located in a lab far from their studio.

placeret i et laboratorie langt fra deres lokaler.

Later that year, a friend gave me a 3D printed necklace,

Senere det år fik jeg en 3D printet halskæde af en ven

printed using a home printer.

lavet med en hjemmeprinter.

I knew that these printers were much cheaper

Jeg vidste, at disse printere var billigere

and much more accessible than the ones we used at my internship.

og langt mere tilgængelige en dem vi brugte under mit praktikophold.

So I looked at the necklace,

Så jeg kiggede på halskæden

and then I thought, "If I can print a necklace from home,

og tænkte så: "Hvis jeg kan printe en halskæde derhjemme,

why not print my clothes from home, too?"

hvorfor så ikke også printe mit tøj der?"

I really liked the idea that I wouldn't have to go to the market

Jeg kunne godt lide tanken om ikke at skulle gå til markedet

and pick fabrics that someone else chose to sell --

og vælge materialer som andre havde valgt at sælge.

I could just design them and print them directly from home.

Jeg kunne bare designe og printe hjemmefra.

I found a small makerspace,

Jeg fandt et lille forum

where I learned everything I know about 3D printing.

hvor jeg lærte alt jeg ved om 3D printning.

Right away, they literally gave me the key to the lab,

De gav mig nøglen til laboratoriet med det samme,

so I could experiment into the night, every night.

så jeg kunne eksperimentere hele natten, hver nat.

The main challenge was to find the right filament for printing clothes with.

Den største udfordring var at finde det rigtige fiber at printe tøjet med.

So what is a filament?

Så hvad er et fiber?

Filament is the material you feed the printer with.

Fiber er det materiale du fodrer printeren med.

And I spent a month or so experimenting with PLA,

Og jeg brugte omkring en måned på at eksperimentere med PLA,

which is a hard and scratchy, breakable material.

som er et hårdt, kradsende og skrøbeligt materiale.

The breakthrough came when I was introduced to Filaflex,

Gennembruddet kom da jeg blev introduceret for Filaflex,

which is a new kind of filament.

som er en ny slags fiber.

It's strong, yet very flexible.

Det er stærkt, men meget fleksibelt.

And with it, I was able to print the first garment,

Og med det var jeg i stand til at printe det første stykke tøj,

the red jacket that had the word "Liberté" --

denne røde jakke med ordet "Liberté,"

"freedom" in French --

"frihed" på fransk,

embedded into it.

skrevet på den.

I chose this word because I felt so empowered and free

Jeg valgte dette ord fordi jeg følte mig så beføjet og fri

when I could just design a garment from my home

når jeg kunne designe et stykke tøj derhjemme

and then print it by myself.

og printe det helt selv.

And actually, you can easily download this jacket,

Faktisk kan du let downloade denne jakke

and easily change the word to something else.

og ændre ordet til noget andet.

For example, your name or your sweetheart's name.

For eksempel dit navn eller din kærestes navn.

(Laughter)

(Latter)

So the printer plates are small,

Printerens plader er små

so I had to piece the garment together, just like a puzzle.

så jeg blev nød til at samle tøjet ligesom et puslespil.

And I wanted to solve another challenge.

Og jeg ville løse en anden udfordring.

I wanted to print textiles

Jeg ville printe tekstiler

that I would use just like regular fabrics.

som jeg kunne bruge helt ligesom almindelig stof.

That's when I found an open-source file

Da fandt jeg en open-source fil

from an architect who designed a pattern that I love.

fra en arkitekt der designede et mønster jeg elsker.

And with it, I was able to print a beautiful textile

Og med det var jeg i stand til at printe et smukt stykke tekstil

that I would use just like a regular fabric.

som jeg kunne bruge helt ligesom almindeligt stof.

And it actually even looks a little bit like lace.

Og det ligner rigtige blonder.

So I took his file and I modified it, and changed it, played with it --

Så jeg tog denne fil og modificerede den og ændrede den, legede med den

many kinds of versions out of it.

og lavede mange versioner af den.

And I needed to print another 1,500 more hours

Og jeg skulle bruge 1.500 timer oveni til at printe

to complete printing my collection.

for at færdiggøre min kollektion.

So I brought six printers to my home and just printed 24-7.

Så jeg tog seks printere med hjem og printede døgnet rundt.

And this is actually a really slow process,

Og det er faktisk en meget langsom proces,

but let's remember the Internet was significantly slower 20 years ago,

men lad os huske på at internettet også var langt langsommere for 20 år siden,

so 3D printing will also accelerate

så 3D printning vil accelerere

and in no time you'll be able to print a T-Shirt in your home

og på ingen tid vil du kunne printe en t-shirt derhjemme

in just a couple of hours, or even minutes.

på et par timer eller endda minutter.

So you guys, you want to see what it looks like?

Så vil I gerne se hvordan det ser ud?

Audience: Yeah!

Publikum: Ja!

(Applause)

(Klapsalver)

Danit Peleg: Rebecca is wearing one of my five outfits.

Danit Peleg: Rebecca er iført et af mine fem designs.

Almost everything here she's wearing, I printed from my home.

Næsten alt det som hun har på har jeg printet derhjemme.

Even her shoes are printed.

Selv skoene er printet.

Audience: Wow!

Publikum: Wauw!

Audience: Cool!

Publikum: Cool!

(Applause)

(Klapsalver)

Danit Peleg: Thank you, Rebecca.

Danit Peleg: Tak, Rebecca.

(To audience) Thank you, guys.

(Til publikum) Tak, allesammen.

So I think in the future, materials will evolve,

Jeg tror, at materialer i fremtiden vil udvikle sig

and they will look and feel like fabrics we know today,

og de vil ligne og føles som de stoffer vi kender i dag,

like cotton or silk.

såsom bomuld eller silke.

Imagine personalized clothes that fit exactly to your measurements.

Forestil jer personligt tøj der passer præcis til jeres mål.

Music was once a very physical thing.

Musik var engang en meget fysisk ting.

You would have to go to the record shop and buy CDs,

Du skulle hen til pladebutikken og købe CD'er,

but now you can just download the music --

men nu kan du bare downloade musikken,

digital music --

digital musik,

directly to your phone.

direkte til din telefon.

Fashion is also a very physical thing.

Mode er også en meget fysisk ting.

And I wonder what our world will look like

Og jeg tænker på hvordan verden vil se ud

when our clothes will be digital, just like this skirt is.

når vores tøj er digitalt, ligesom denne nederdel er.

Thank you so much.

Tusind tak.

(Applause)

(Klapsalver)

[Thank You]

[Tak]

(Applause)
