Jewelry that’s made only of light beamed onto your skin

soroto2.jpg

Kozniewski and his collaborators at the Warsaw-based art collective created Neclumi while experimenting with projection mapping and with wearable devices. They’re often tinkering with technology (last year panGenerator created another conceptual wearable, called Tactilo, that lets two wearers send each other haptic signals over Bluetooth signals) and decided to see what would happen if they fused projection mapping with wearables to create wearable projections. The result is Neclumi, an app that pairs with a picoprojector, attached to a shirt collar, to shine little light tattoos on the wearer’s neck, like a glow-in-the-dark choker necklace.

Right now Neclumi (which is still very much a prototype) has four ‘styles’: Airo, Movi, Roto, and Sono. Each one responds to different sensors to flicker and flutter and expand in size on the wearer’s skin. Movi, for instance, reacts the phone’s accelerometer and changes its pattern according to the wearer’s body movement. Roto, on the other hand, contracts in tandem with the phone’s compass.
