PROJECT ILLUMILAINE

Project Illumilaine is an interactive scarf that when worn reinvents human communication. The scarf is designed to project the wearer’s voice (and atmospheric ambient noise) through light. Equipped with a small micro- phone, Project Illumilaine re-imagines a whole range of possible outputs that can afford us to understand our bodies in a new individual way by translating its characteristics into different sensorial interpretations. When worn, the scarf creates a wearable interactive experience in which the wearer’s actions and verbal gestures are translated to an abstract form of visual “body language” displayed through light.
