Iga Węglińska's Frisson is an innovative kinetic garment that reacts to ambient sound by producing micro-movements that simulate the human experience of frisson—chills evoked by emotional stimuli. The piece draws on neuroaesthetics and sensory design to transform ancient physiological responses, such as goosebumps, into a contemporary context. Equipped with sensors, Frisson interprets soundscapes in real-time, enhancing emotional and sensory engagement by allowing clothing to function as an extension of our awareness of the environment. This exploration of atavism reveals the garments as responsive and alive, forging connections between fashion, emotion, and the acoustic world.
Frisson by Iga Węglińska invigorates clothing design by allowing garments to react to ambient sound, creating a living second skin that simulates primal physiological responses.
The project rethinks ancient bodily reflexes like goosebumps, transitioning them from survival instincts to responses to beauty, awe, and meaning through kinetic movement.
