Seven interactive garment-based sound sculptures, each with its own sound world, visuals, and mode of interaction. Fashion becomes functional art, a wearable instrument, and a different form of sonic and visual expression rooted in human touch. Bridging the art of fashion with electroacoustic music production technique and physical interaction, each of these sculptures are focused on the integration of specific sensors, used to trigger different sounds and audio processing. The garments/sculptures uses a range of sensors and conductive materials, to fully integrate bodily interactions. All sounds are created through an embedded system, using specific microcontrollers for each sculpture.
