omg.

my work has been slashdotted.



however, the article in pc mag (and especially the slashdot story intro) completely misses the point. it's not changing your appearance for the sake of changeability (i.e. a fickle change from dots to stripes); it's about increasing the temporally dynamic granularity of material-based fashion. plus, there are some design decisions that are made in the project that frame it as so.

if you're curious on what it's really about, read my paper (published in CHI2006).

(btw, the model is none other than orkan, smg-mate and amazing bag-toter.)

i haven't read the comments yet, but i'm prepared. really.

i read your comment and was completely baffled...and then realized it was a post from may of last year! i actually wonder what did become of that yarn...oh wait, i gave the shirt away after finishing it because unless i gain about 200 lbs, it won't fit me. and i was so sick of it that i wanted it far away from me. oops. sorry. i do have contests every so often and give away the luxefibre.com stuff, so stay posted!
