Clothes that Rock

The hip new thing in fashoin right now seems to be items of clothing that let the person wearing it get their groove on. Before Levi's came out with their iPod compatible jeans, a US company, SCOTTEVEST (SeV) has been offering “technology enabled clothing” with pockets that are designed for iPods, cell phones, PDAs and much more! Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple says “The SeV is the perfect accessory for an iPod.” SeV offers a number of items, from jackets to cargo pants, even hats and ties, so you can find something for any geek!
But if you really want your clothes to make a statement, and I mean literally, check out Sonic Fabric, a durable and audible fabric created by artist Alyce Santoro. This innovative fabric that is woven out of recorded cassette tape emits sound when you run a tape head over it. Ms. Santoro recently lectured for dorkbot.org and performs a demonstration of the audible fabric that you can hear via this podcast. The fabric itself can be ironed, washed, and it can be bought by the yard in a variety of colors on the Sonic Fabric website.
