THE TELE_TRUST DATAVEIL.

Tele_Trust takes place in dynamic public spaces such as a museum or train station.
Here audience members meet and interact using a DataVeil.
This DataVeil is a membrane, a second skin that allows an intimate, networking body experience. It offers a tangible body interface for scanning online trust.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
This full-body garment combines visual elements from both Eastern and Western traditions, taking its inspiration from the monks’ habit, the burqa, Darth Vader and the ‘trustworthy’ chalk-stripe business suit.
The DataVeil is interactive. Flexible and invisible touch sensors woven into the DataVeil’s smart fabric transform the wearer’s body into an intuitive, tangible interface. By touching their body in the DataVeil, users meet strangers around them through their smartphones.

Smartphones connecting with your body.
Inside the DataVeil you are unidentifiable. Yet audience members around you can make your face visible on their smartphone screens. By gently touching and caressing their screens, they unveil your face online. And in real-time audio, you share emotions and statements of trust. Tele_Trust audience members meet globally in an intimate body experience, to exchange stories in response to questions such as: Am I here with you, who is watching who, who is controlling who – using what identity and in whose body?
