What we came out is new instrument which links body movements directly to sound generation. The knitted collar with integrated stretch sensors and speakers is a surprising interface to create soundscapes. It can be used in festivals, street performances, theaters and any other places by those who wants to translate body movements into music. By getting it you become a member of sound embracers with whom you can exchange knowledge about garment itself and share created compositions, participate in performances.

활 Second Week
Close to the body second week. Adding electronics
Second week’s task was to integrate electronics to existing garments thus improving their qualities.
Our idea was to augment experience of using garment by adding phonic layer. Physical perception of movement change is ingenuously linked to auditory sense. It connects physical and emotional experience and creates broadened sensual empathy. Motion remains as a key factor. Soundscape varies depending on intensity, expression, sharpness and speed of movements. Different sound expressions could be created while dancing, embracing or exploring surroundings with minor moves of fingertips.

close to the body studio first week. Embracing bow
It is about motion and experience of sensations. And controlling them with the body. Tightly weaved knit on the shoulders frames and gives sense of assistance. On the contrary fragile net on arms allows to sense surroundings with skin and fingertips. The bow responds to the motion and creates slightly different space for the body to note environment you are in.
