What will happen in your session?

Working with tools like Arduino and node.js/JavaScript Marion will walk you through the process of hacking your clothes and will show you some examples of her creation. Our fashions are often a representation of who we are and how we broadcast ourselves to the world. What if you can make your clothes broadcast your identity? What if you can code different colours and styles for different identities? Make your dress broadcast your pronoun, make your boots display your pride colours. The possibilities are limitless. Come, queer your fashion with Marion.

What is the goal or outcome of your session?

Working off of the basic prototypes and examples provided attendees will be able to hack and queer their own fashions. This will set the stage for attendees to hack their own fashions and sharing them worldwide.
