Self-Punishing, Eco Clothing - CO2 Corset [Edit]

In the popular Dan Brown story, The Davinci Code, a character named Silas practices corporal mortification (wears a metal cilice and flogs himself) to “cleanse” his spirit. This piece of clothing reminds me of that but, without the eternal damnation part. Kristin O’Friel, a student at the NYU art school, has designed a corset to tighten as its carbon dioxide sensors detect higher levels of the gas - reminding the wearer of our impact on the air we breath.

The article supports the torso and slims the figure by cinching the waist imposing a shallowness of breathe on the user, making it contextually appropriate as the wearable interface to air quality. (medgadget)
