Yumika Tanaka – CODAME Featured Artist
Yumika created We Are What We Wear Series through the integration of materials and techniques from both old and new. I thus transformed the typical form of the kimonos through the sensory data of a new technological environment, creating contemporary, electronically embodied kimonos.
LEDs are programmed with Arduino to play three different traffic conditions randomly that run on a loop of 10 minutes in duration.
Title: We are what we wear.
Medium: Black Kimono Installation, fabric, thread, paper, and micro-controlled LEDs.
Size: 2012, 75” x 169” x 5” (Width Varies) – Software/Developer/Company: Arduino – Contributor: Marek Kapolka (Programmer)
