As a textile-based artifact/system the work that is being developed provides a forum for the exploration of small mobile displays as well as other technology embedded into clothing. At it’s core the +++= platform is an exploration of human-human communication that offers up the possibility for exploring visual, audible, haptic, and olfactory modalities. The project team envisioned an investigation of post growth clothing design, wearable technology, and 3D printing taps into notions of distributed networks currently being discussed within the domains of both social media and sustainable design research.
