Intention

My project proposal is to create a 'hug me' T-shirt that can increase the physical interaction between people. I was first inspired by a type of temperature-sensitive thread invented by a group of Melbourne researchers. The thread can change color as the temperature changes,so when people touch the thread, the color will change. A T-shirt made out such thread is interesting to wear and encourage other people to physically interact with the person who wear the T-shirt. Hug is a really powerful thing that can give people strength. The T-shirt might be a good tool to help people with autism or social phobia and encourage them to interact with the world and appreciate other's company.
