The project called Hunt For High Tech from Bart Hess. It’s a collection of “conceptual textiles and animations that seek to harness both nature and technology in an effort to create a new human/animal archetype. ” (http://barthess.nl/hunt-for-high-tech.html)

I like the hairy shoes most. As the wearer’s second skin, this pair of shoes can breath as a live animal. Bart imagined animals could be part robot, part biological organism. I like his cyborg idea, the breathing and the aesthetic. But I don’t think their breathing is synchronizing with wearer’s breath, which is a little regret. I would love to try some second skin design in the future. It inspires me how to demonstrate a live skin by breathing.
