Quietude

Quietude (www.quietude.it) is a collection of interactive jewels that enhance the experience of deaf women. They detect sounds and translate them into vibrations, light and shape changes. The jewellery collection is completed by an App for a smartphone allowing personalisation of both input and output, and the construction of a personal library of sounds that can be monitored for, and replayed on demand through the accessories. The project has been developed in co-design sessions with deaf women to enable the development of accessories that respond to the emergent discoveries and desires.
