REFLECTING MUSIC JACKET 2017
MUSIC SWEATER
This sweater is equipped with 6 capacitive touch sensors, which are connected on the inside of the fabric with a microcontroller. They can communicate wirelessly with professional music software such as Max, Abelton and others and control them.
Our products are able to network with different software. They can be used both in the private environment, for instance for Smarthome products, as well as publicly, for lectures or a professional show in front of a large audience. Apart from the control functions, we can also integrate sound and light effects into textiles.

For the Bauhausfest, UX.FTT has designed and realized an interactive dance performance, in which the boundaries between the dancer, the costume and the musical instrument were lifted: the dancer Anna Fricke was able to activate music through touch and movement, her dance partner Malte Peter has through the targeted movement of his arm, moved the music through the room and affected the volume. The interaction of the dancers resulted in a symbiosis of music, movement and space - based on the ideas of the Triadic Ballet, reinterpreted with modern technology.
