Today; people are in an era of digitally mediated Human-to-Human Interaction; which cannot provide full sensorial contact and therefore; emotions cannot be communicated completely. The intimate cover of the human body; i.e. garment is the interface; where many personal traits are embodied. With the improvements in textile and electronics industry; this embodiment can be carried on a higher level; where the garments become dynamic interfaces and extensions of the human body. This book consists of a research on skin; clothes and technology as extensions of human body; emotions; technology-mediated emotions and a design practice that explores the communicative level of wearable technology through turning it into a living surface; which can convert intangible data to tangible in order to provide an emotional communication. This book aims to show how Human-Technology interaction is carried into an alternative context; where technology dissolves in use and starts serving for enhancing HHI.
