Abstract

In this paper we present Nebula, a prototype for examining the properties of textiles, fashion accessories, and digital technologies to arrive at a garment design that brings these elements together in a cohesive manner. Bridging the gap between everyday performativity and enactment, we aim at discussing aspects of the making process, interaction and functional aesthetics that emerged. Nebula is part of the Sound Clothes project that aims at exploring the expressive potential of wearable technologies creating sound from motion.

My research strives to examine clothing as an instrument for creative social encounters. It is my strong belief that the natural tactility of a wearable structure and its' proximity to the body hold great possibility for intuitive play. A hands-on ...
Hybrid Body Craft
DIS '17 Companion: Proceedings of the 2017 ACM Conference Companion Publication on Designing Interactive Systems

Hybrid Body Craft is a research practice to create on-body interfaces which embody the wearer's identity. It inspires from the form factors and user experiences of existing body decorations. They serve duality as both wearable devices and body art, and ...
Exploring Interactions and Perceptions of Kinetic Wearables
DIS '17: Proceedings of the 2017 Conference on Designing Interactive Systems

Jewelry and accessories have long been objects for decorating the human body; however they remain static and non-interactive. This work explores opportunities for accessory-like kinetic wearables and their association with individual style. We developed ...
