Abstract:
Skorpions are kinetic electronic garments that integrate Nitinol (a shape-memory alloy) and custom electronics to move and change on the body in slow, organic motions. They can be imagined as parasites that inhabit the skin of the host. They breathe and pulse, controlled by their own internal programming.
