FIRST ASSIGNMENT


Memory

For this assignment I pared with Carly Muller. Carly studies fashion and we ended up talking about vintage clothing. It reminded me of a bag I recently scored on a flee market. In the bag the name of the former owner. It made me wonder who the person was and who she was when wearing this bag. Was she the only owner or has it belong to another person?

Images I found on the former owner Petra Rappl



I realized that when Id look in my closet, id see an archive of experiences and memories. Some clothes have been in my possession for years and years and when I wear them they take me back to a certain period of time. So what memories can we find in clothing we buy at vintage stores. Our projects contains a smart fabric in which memories are stored and can be viewed by following a pattern and touching the fabric

Who was this young woman? Was this her favorite dress? Did she meet her soulmate while wearing it?

Was she a painter? A poet? What did she love? These are the kinds of questions you find

yourself asking and wondering about (and loving to ask and wonder about!) when you wear vintage clothing.


To accomplish this fabric I have started working with Arduino and made a capacitive sensor. This sensor reacts to touch. Trough processing the memories are being displayed on a screen.
