Neoteny

Hui Sim Chan (Sim) (MY)

Neoteny is an exploration of bio-sensing and cross-sensory relationships between body posture, movement, and environmental context. The wearable device blends and delivers scents based on muscle tension, with the aim of establishing new associations of smell with muscle memory as a training paradigm for the body.

Neoteny suggests possibilities of how a symbiotic relationship with its wearer can be formed and provokes a debate around how much ownership over our bodies we truly have.
