ABSTRACT
In this studio, we will improve our tailoring skills in order to better integrate technology into clothing. Leveraging the volumetric nature of clothing, we will create eTextile interfaces that fit the shape of the body and are designed around how bodies move. This studio will consist of a short masterclass led by an expert fashion designer followed by materials experimentation and working on individual projects. We will introduce and demo a variety of ways to design and implement 3-dimensional eTextiles as well as how to integrate them with interactive systems.

Art-directed costumes at pixar: design, tailoring, and simulation in production
SA '18: SIGGRAPH Asia 2018 CoursesCostumes are an important part of character design, acting, storytelling, and visual appeal in animation. However, it is challenging to achieve art-directed natural-looking motion and detail in CG animated clothing, due to technology, workflow, and ...
Collaborative costume design and construction on Incredibles 2
SIGGRAPH '18: ACM SIGGRAPH 2018 TalksWhen Incredibles 2 moved into production, we knew it would look bigger and better than the original film, with the improvements in technology since 2004. Costumes are important in this stylish world, and it was a challenge finding consensus on the look ...
Designing For Meaningfulness: A Case Study Of A Pregnancy Wearable For Men
DIS '17 Companion: Proceedings of the 2017 ACM Conference Companion Publication on Designing Interactive SystemsIn this paper, we describe a case study of Fibo -- a pregnancy wearable for men (and non-pregnant partners) which allows a partner to feel the movements of their unborn child via a wearable jewellery device. Fibo, in its current state, is a jewellery ...
