Description
Whereas the first cyberSM project used a visual interface to influence and control the remote environment, the functionality of the third generation suits shifts the emphasis away from the computerscreen as mediator to the body itself.

In the inter_skin project the body becomes the interface for communication between the participants. It becomes an "interskin" to convey, exchange and receive information. Both participants wear a sensoric outfit that is capable of both transmitting and receiving different multi sensoric stimuli. The main emphasis of the communication is in the transmission and receiving of touch.
