3lectromode Flower Shopping Bag 001 is a 5 LED-embedded custom-printed cotton bag designed to respond to the rhythm of your walk.

3lectromode introduces a series of customizable kits. The design objective of the kits is to create accessible yet stylish DIY wearables which fuse fashion with electronics.

The kits come in a series of customizable designs featuring a selection of patterns, beautiful custom graphics printed directly on ready to use fabric, interactive components (leds, kinetics), sensors (light, temperature, accelerometer), pre-programmed electronic components (lilypad arduinos circuit, silver high-conductive thread) and of course detailed instructions to create a truly unique interactive wearables. The kits are mini-battery operated and come with a recharger. They can be hand washed, hung to dry and ironed providing the batteries are removed.

The one of a kind graphics, printed directly onto the pattern fabric, have been created to fit the exact cut of the bag and double as the guidelines for integrating the circuit’s conductive threads.

The motion sensor responds to real-time movement, playfully animating a series of leds, which turn on and off in accordance to changing rhythms. The more the bag is in motion, the more active the leds.
