Popis: AURA is a speculative design project that criticizes the social problem, body image obsession, which is influenced by consumer culture, social media etc. In this regard, AURA consists of three woven light emitting interactive textile artifacts which aims to alter people's perception of self, which is limited only to a material level, by creating a fictional spatial experience based on the stimulation of the sense of movement. The project asks 1) what if there would be no mirror or screen to reflect the body image but textiles that emit light according to the existence of body and 2) how this would influence the perception of self. By asking these questions, the project created a space for corporeal experience where individuals are able to experience their body movements as sensory beings and in return receive color and brightness changes corresponding to the existence of their bodies. The project is discussed from the viewpoint of phenomenology and creates the interactive sensory experience in relation to speculative design through use of electronics i.e. sensors, microcontrollers and with digital light elements to investigate the pointed-out issue.
