So now instead of a creature we are making a flower. We plan to have the flower open up to intimacy of the wearers (eg. when friends pat each other on the shoulder, or give each other a hug). This project would be embodied as the whole body could be involved in these actions.
In class we also talked about actions in the physical world being implemented in interactive devices. We thought this project would fit the concept because these gestures between friends are natural in the physical world.
As for the flower, a closed bud represents a humans being closed up, and as the flower opens, it brings the metaphor of humans opening up themselves to someone they trust (friends).
