Body in Sound: Physical Audio and the Design of Wearables, Chairs, and Experience

In working with SubPac© technology to integrate high-fidelity haptic sound into the production and experience of rich soundscapes, industrial design is afforded a new dimension with which to engage the human body. Propelled by such visceral technology, our everyday objects and spaces will be normalized by once again ‘feeling’ the world in which they operate.
