Active garments...

 	This is a bit of an open request for help.

 	I am looking for help compiling references for smart garments / 
garment integrated devices where the garment actively changes. I am having 
trouble finding good quality examples that have been published with a 
detailed description of the garment and in a citable location.

 	For example for garments that change shape I have only been able 
to find four suitable references despite having seen a number of projects 
over the years; The Wearable Folding Display, the Fashion victims exhibit 
in 2004, or the Kinetic electronic garments by Berzowska and Coelho, and 
the Mystique dress by cute-circuit. Everything else I have found has been 
like the work of Hussein Chalayan. Very interesting, but not published 
with a description or in a place that will be archived and thus can be 
cited.

 	So I am asking the wearhard community to please sent me pointers 
to any works that you may be aware of. If I can get enough feedback to 
warrant it I will post a compiled list of the garments back to the list.

 	Thank you in advance for your help,

 		Aaron Toney
