An Electric Jacket for Mobile Gadgets

The first prototype of Hannah Perner-Wilson's Clothing that Arranges the Body collection amounts to a jacket that connects the flow of electricity between devices, that are scattered in pockets around the body. CAB visualizes our dependency on mobile technology. We carry with us our gadgets; we are systems of sorts - a set of draws, a storage box, a showcase for our collections of digital data plus their extension with the outside world. As she states there is nothing inherently technologically new about her execution, Koyono's Outerwear comes to mind, but both the garment's apearance and use play with this fact that we spend every day within close proximity of electronic devices, within the flow of electricity around our bodies. Beautiful execution of an interesting concept.

CAB.
