Inventory Number: thom06001

When the piece is engaged, each step the wearer takes is broadcast as a single electronic dance beat. The piece enables people to create user-defined performative spaces that reference both the cinematic and the fantastic, where the acoustic ecology of public space is activated through collaboration, improvisation and one-upmanship.
