dynamic textile patterns in Information Aesthetics several pieces of everyday worn clothing that reveal or create patterns based on environmental conditions (e.g. sunlight, temperature, wind). for instance, a scarf changes the pattern on the textile surface (using thermochromatic ink) & even heats up when it detects that it is cold outside. a carrying bag lights up in dynamic grid-like patterns depending on local sounds, using electro-luminescent film & synthetic fabric. these prototypes explore properties of person-to-person communication, proximity, & environmental sensitivity as expressive properties that can be worn.

I don't know where this leads. Are we going to let technology decide for us the look of what we wear? If this were the case it would be a loss of our personality and we could soon appear as interchangeable numbers... But there could well be some very interesting uses in the public domain.
