Weaving in traditional looms is an activity that involves technological
knowledge and the implementation of technological, cultural and oral memory.
E-chumpi are two pieces of fabric that, like traditional “chumpis”, are made to be worn. In addition, they have a system electronic that makes them react to sound through quick pulses.
The more constant the sound emitted by the visitor or the environment, the more the weaves will be illuminated.
