Abstract

We present a range of body-worn devices that have evolved from a common design intent: ‘to move the body through real and virtual extension’. These devices encourage people to move in extra-normal ways, and thereby view and experience their bodies from perhaps hitherto unknown perspectives. They provide a rich playground for self-expression, as well as learning opportunities that we believe might be relevant for people with physical challenges and unconventional or altered abilities. Our desire in presenting this work to the ArtAbilitation community is to open up a dialogue and examine opportunities for engagement.
