Abstract: 
Nebula is an interactive prototype used to examine the properties of textiles, fashion accessories, and digital technologies to arrive at a garment design that brings these elements together in a cohesive manner. Bridging the gap between everyday performativity and enactment, Nebula is part of a longer project addressing aspects of the making process, interaction, and functional aesthetics. The studs seen on the garment are the endpoints of a live electronic circuit. When the garment moves, the studs touch and create connections that are used to envelope the wearer in an electronic soundscape.
