EXPERIENCE RE/ME

Created by a team of artists and scientists, RE/ME is an experimental, immersive technology that uses vibration and sound stimuli to change bodily self-perception. From August 1st to August 12th 2018, people from the Bay area were invited to visit RE/ME at the Swissnex building on pier 17, Embarcadero, San Francisco.

About

​RE/ME is a tool that uses vibration and sound to increase body awareness. Body awareness can positively influence a range of different mental and physical issues. One way to increase body awareness is to apply vibration on the skin. RE/ME applies targeted and carefully composed vibration on the body to enhance awareness of those parts. RE/ME is a mediator that encourages reconnection with your body.
