A one week workshop to design and prototype clothes that allow their owners to communicate not only by visual means but also by means of sound. The attending fashion designers will be given opportunity to extend their designs to audible dimensions and they will be introduced to the state of the art technology. Different sensors and their implications on the design of clothes and ability to control sound will be evaluated. Special considerations are given to movement tracking and gesture control.
