The |yt_A Touch

I mentioned this sort of thing not too long ago and have been thinking about how to make a wearable version for years. That “thing” is the |yt_A device; aka the distance touch generator. From the project website (Link):

|yt_A is an artwork, an instrument and a translation medium in one. It is a flexible structure that can transmit haptic information on a distance: when the structure is touched on one site, the touch will be visible and touchable on another.

Conjugal visits will never be the same.
