What if you could feel an #echo, or response to your #touch? The Tactile Echoes system measures the vibration in your fingernail and feeds back a playful audio and haptic response. https://t.co/79R0HgZRkV

Great to meet, and learn more about this partnership. Who'd have thought an octopus🐙would have been the thing that sparked the initial connection!? meetings where we get to learn new things are great: soft robotics and computational art... 🤯

Ever experienced that middle-of-the-night panic fumbling in the dark for a light switch because you're DESPERATE for the bathroom? Haven't we all. But how does this get us thinking about the importance of 'touch'? #ImpactFellow @Sariadela_abad explains: https://t.co/Ax7QZy8HBp

Have you ever felt that you have been touched, or imagined that feeling whilst watching ‘paranormal TV’? Interesting article here that unpacks some of the rhetorical devices used in that genre https://t.co/mPiVne9x01
