“Like-A-Hug is a wearable social media vest that allows for hugs to be given via Facebook, bringing us closer despite physical distance. The vest inflates when friends ‘Like’ a photo, video, or status update on the wearer’s wall, thereby allowing us to feel the warmth, encouragement, support, or love that we feel when we receive hugs. Hugs can also be sent back to the original sender by squeezing the vest and deflating it.”

I just discovered ‘New Aesthetic’ a definition of a new art form. So I found this awesome keynote by James Bridle at Web Directions South in Sidney 2011.
It’s about digital art that’s been made possible through technology. Enjoy!
