TEI°10, design, research, wearables | (0)
Sarah Kettley presented woolen garments that are conductive and by that can be used as sensors. I am very interested in the now upcoming approaches of mixing up technology and fashion. There allready had been several trys to bring circuits into a flexible or maybe less rigid shape. For example the e-motion project of the University of the Arts Berlin, which was a collaboration between the department of fashion design and the Fraunhofer Institute for micro integration. In the project the students explored the possibilities of textile computing using bendable sensors and circuits, new innovative textiles or print colours and ...
