Today Yeseul and I talked about some issues I was having with my wearables assignment around the power source and what might be causing the jitter. We also started talking more about how to iterate on the piece conceptually to make it a little more fun like if it had more spots all over it or if it was inflatable as a way to reveal spots too. And started to think about hedgehog spikes like lady gaga’s dress from 2014 or Kristin Neidlinger’s Goosebump Proof. We also talked about ways to hide a distance sensor in additional accessories or props
- Small Winch
- Programmable air
We also talked about potential places to hide the power sources (image from instructables Motion Activated Speed Suit)
