I am feeling blue... and red. (2016)
“I’m feeling blue… and red” proposes a haptic experience of colour perception through a wearable device in a format of a glove.
The design of the fingers is modified to establish another relation and deconstruct the way we use to touch.
The manual embroidered electronic circuit ensures flexibility and comfort.
The user feels the colors through vibrations along the arm.
The wearable device was developed during the Art and Science Residency Alt+, initiated by the Medialab/UFG.
The residency had the participation of two computer scientists, Ronaldo Martins da Costa and Gustavo Laureano, the artist Ricardo O’Nascimento and the collaboration and support of the media Lab/UFG staff curated by Izabel Goudart and Cleomar Rocha.
