Illusion Wearable
By Zephyros Koyanis
Thesis
This project was about making a piece of clothing that fooled your eyes, or that just looked really cool and weird. The wearable will spark confusion and curiosity.
How this relates to human augmentation
This project was meant to highlight how the human eyes can be fooled. It is meant enhance the human body and make the body itself into an optical illusion.
Key Design Objectives
I wanted the final product to be made out of mirrored and clear acrylic, and to use infinity mirrors to fool the eyes. I wanted it to evoke confusion and curiosity in the people who saw it, and make them do a double-take.
