F.I.T. meets M.I.T. in Switch Craft , a book of 20 ultra-modern projects that are equal parts fashion and function. From a skirt that can streak trails of light on the dance floor to a laptop sleeve that’s the first to know when you’re in a Wi-Fi zone, these projects are made for the wired (or wireless) world. Without sacrificing style or being more complicated than sixth-grade science class, they integrate lights, vibration, and sound with sewing to create edgy, attractive accessories and clothing. So if you’re ready to take your crafting not only to another level but another frontier, let Switch Craft bring your handiwork into the twenty-first century. ALISON LEWIS got her start as the creator and producer of SWITCH (iheartswitch.com), an online DIY blog that showcases technology as modern, crafty, fashionable, and fun. When Alison isn’t exploring New York City boutiques or coasting down a mountain on her snowboard, she teaches Fashion Technology at Parsons School of Design, is the Techno-Fashionista Guru for Verizon FiOS’s TV show MyHome2.0 (2pointhome.com), and produces interactive exhibits for science, history, and children’s museums at Art Guild, Inc. FANG-YU LIN is a New York–based user-experience designer and information architect. As a new media artist, his artworks have been exhibited internationally. Hardcover Spiral Bound
