Interactive Ink Bag

Fashionvictims Is this art imitating life? What would happen if your personal belongings would react to the mobile phone communication in its vicinity? This project by FashionVictim.org created a bag that reacts to mobile phone communication and creates ink blobs as a visual reaction. Once the bag is stained to the users satisfaction, the mechanism that makes it bleed can be pulled out.

"We want to see what would happen if our clothes - everyday objects that we carry on our person - were able to display this presence".

"The metaphor we have decided to use for visualizing mobile communication comes directly from nature: clothes, as a second skin, react to the environment and change in color. Here, as more and more phone calls are conducted in their surroundings, the clothes progressively and permanently change color ."[Via]
