Research question
How can we pass bodylanguage through clothing in shape/colour to communicate more easily?
Research
1. What is the theme I am investigating? Why is this relevant?
Bodylanguage. Bodylanguage is 80% of communication.
2. How does this relate to the body, identity, and technology? Defend the relevancy.
You can express yourself throughout your garment. It will be more easy for people to communicate in public instead of everybody hiding in their telephonescreens. Also the clothing will grow along with your identity, giving a whole new dimension to clothing and making it more valuable.
3. What is my research question? Why is this relevant?
How can we pass bodylanguage through clothing in shape/colour to communicate more easily? Due to digitally communicating instead of communicating in person, there is a lack of bodylanguage which causes miscommunications. People will forget the language of the body and thats why we want to develop clothing that transforms your bodylanguage in more obvious signs which will help you to communicate with each other more easily.
4. How am I structuring my research? Why is this relevant?
First it's important to understand bodylanguage, define the gestures/movements and what they mean. Which techniques/materials are relevant for our research? And what is possible? How are we going to translate this into our garment? Use product itself as a researchtool to investigate people's thoughts.
5. What tools or methods could I/will I use to conduct my research? How are these relevant?
The human body and it's reaction on emotions/communication. The product itself.
6. What is the foreseen result? Why would this be this relevant?
A transforming clothingpiece. You can express yourself throughout your garment. It will be more easy for people to communicate in public instead of everybody hiding in their telephonescreens. Also the clothing will grow along with your identity, giving a whole new dimension to clothing and making it more valuable.
7. What is the difference between my foreseen result and my initial experiments? Relevance?

The aggregate material in Starpath, which comes in form of a spray with applied elastomeric coating into which a wide range of mediums can be added. It absorbs and stores energy from ambient light (UV rays) during the day, and releases this energy at night, making the particles glow. The material glows for up to 16 hours after a charge and the particles will last a minimum of 20 years.
