I have chosen to present her Life Dress project to the class because I thought it looked really interesting and I really liked the design. It is made of dragon skin silicon tiles, which are sewn together, with LED lights within each tile, and the dress' light pattern changes according to the algorithm of John Conway's 'Game of Life.' The algorithm is a simple set of rules that determined weather each cell in a grid is either alive (on) or dead (off). All of the light patterns are powered by an arduino. The tiles form a grid and each tile lights up according to the rules of the algorithm.
