Wide again (research process)
"My entire research process is characterized by a continual interweaving of ideation, textiles and materials research, electronics research, soft electronics development, garment engineering, movement explorations, participatory design processes and performative development. The result is an iterative process that concurrently and interdependently cycles through and across the different disciplines, maintaining embodied experience at its core".

Proprioception
Proprioception ( /ˌproʊpri.ɵˈsɛpʃən/ pro-pree-o-sep-shən), from Latin proprius, meaning "one's own" and perception, is the sense of the relative position of neighbouring parts of the body and strength of effort being employed in movement.[1] It is distinguished from exteroception, by which we perceive the outside world, and interoception, by which we perceive pain, hunger, etc., and the movement of internal organs.

making visible how the world touches us
Merleau-‐Ponty claimed that the paintings of Cézanne “make visible how the world touches us".
So how does this apply to my concept of 'bringing the outside in?
does this respond to the idea of altering perceptions of environments through play and connectivity/connectedness?
