WhetherWear

Made by Nickie Cheung

Every morning, my best friend Anne used to ask me, “What’s the weather outside? Do you think that I need a coat, or is a sweatshirt enough?” Enter the WhetherWear. Displaying the weather and advising clothes based on Anne’s specific sense of comfort is the WhetherWear’s specialty, and pretty much it’s only capability. In its resting state, the WhetherWear shows a calm breathing indicator, and when asked, it excitedly “thinks” about the question and provides a symbol for an answer!
