This interactive garment portrays a second skin -representing the correlation between the individual and its environment. The electronic wearble serves as a protector and exposer silmutaneously.

The LRD sensors imbedded within the fabric measure the exposure of light, thus the movement of its surrounding. According to the light exposure in the environment, small servo motors between the layers of fabric are activated via an Arduino Uno. Thus, the motors pull and stretch the fabric across the body. While wearing the outfit, the performer can chose to either let oneself be guided by the external influence or on the other hand protect oneself, letting solely the motors react to the environment.

The visible electronics display the inner life of a body; organs and veins that interact just underneath the surface. Consciously working with the element of opacity, I want to question the distinction between human and machine.
