MoMoB is an experimentation about creating possibilities of modularity for the human body, thinking of it as a device.

I created small wireless wearable modules that can communicate between them and with the computer in order to activate several actions happening in a stage (or somewhere else).

My goal was to create an open source tool for the performative arts community, to use/extend the body movement into different actions/outputs: sound, robots, kinetic, light, kinetic sculptures, etc.

During this period, I mainly focused my work on the development of a customized board that can read any input data from conductive fabric made sensors and sending it through wireless radio communication. This PCB can be attached to any part of the body, for example a neoprene laser cut arm module that measures flexion.

When more than two modules are working in different parts of the body and/or several users, a MoMoB network is created and data manipulation can be done from a computer. This work is still on process. :)
