Project description online
Through the creation of two hand devices we are creating a pair of gloves that will help us enhance our senses and perceive our environment with different eyes, ears and hands. We will disguise our hands and trick our mind perception of things. The hands are the perfect connection within our bodies and what surrounds us, we have the power of touching. Our reality becomes part of technology and viceversa.
What idea do people have about technology and are they afraid of it? Both pair of gloves were going to include metal and textile in their composition. One glove was metal and the other one a more normal, textil hand with the incorporation of a speaker and other electronic circuits. Both gloves allowed human to perceive sound interacting to their environment and with their body.
