Will you truthfully track your environmental goals?
Like a Fitbit for your ethical performance, P@tch is a textile-based new media project inspired by punk and DIY culture. Each homemade P@tch uses self-reporting and environmental sensors to allow the user to track their personal and surrounding pollution. P@tch participants will set their own DISPOSABLE month goal and build their own wearable device to track their progress in real time. Will you self-shame yourself into a more sustainable life? Are you brave enough to track your exposure to air pollution and become part of the artwork? Are you willing to take part in a workshop to build your own P@tch?
Apply now to be a participant and track your performance in August.
