the ultimate blog for my projects at itp…who am I??…I am Sinan Ascioglu…
Touchies is my experimental project for Telepresence Class. Touchies, (two cubicles with a soft section to finger) (soft section is made out of toilet paper) (how lame!), allow you to send your touch of finger real time to another touchy. You can send your warm touch to your lovely who is far away from you. Or even E.T. doesn’t need to travel million light years to touch your finger anymore! Touchies are here!

So, starting the last semester at ITP (this feeling sucks), and getting ready for thesis!
Having said that, here is a project proposal for Telepresence class:
Do you have your loved one away? Are you bored of his business trips? Are you most often sleeping alone in your king size bed?
PillowSolus is your companion in your bed, giving you the real time presence of your partner right next to you! The pillow, which your loved one uses when he/she is away, transmits the owners head position to the pillow next to you, which shapes itself as if your partner is sleeping right next to you! You will see his/her sleeping, waking up, turns in the bed, stress, and maybe even sweat! (Simply, one pillow is transmitting the position of the head, and the other is taking the shape as if it has the head in the same position)
