Konstnären Kate Hartman använder  elektroniska klädesplagg för att utforska hur vi kommunicerar, med varandra och med världen omkring oss. I det här underfundiga och tankeväckande föredraget visar hon oss "Självpratarmössan", "Det uppblåsbara hjärtat", "Glaciärkramardräkten" och andra luriga prylar.

Kate Hartman: Konsten att kommunicera med det du har på dig

Communication goes far beyond words; the body itself can become a tool for expression and relationship. By inventing objects like a hat that lets the wearer share internal thoughts or a suit designed to hug a glacier, technology becomes a bridge between people, objects, and even the natural world. A single plant can now tweet its thirst to thousands, and a wearable wall helps people reconsider their relationship to public space. These playful experiments spark wonder, inviting new ways to interact with ourselves, each other, and the environment.
