What if your virtual self was authentically you? Extimacy is a concept defined as externalized intimacy — showing how one feels on the inside to the external world. Extimacy is expressive wearable technology whereas biosensors monitor physiological states and translate feelings into visual, auditory, and or tactile displays. Embedded in fashion, this bioresponsive interface “gives the body a voice” as it offers tangible biofeedback to inspire interaction. The fundamental emotive language is socially dynamic to enhance interpersonal relationships, mediate empathy and ultimately embody greater self awareness. In the MetaVerse, extimacy mediates mood to offer heightened intimacy and personalization for avatars. Infusing self expression in the virtual world has potential to create more cohesive and embodied experiences.
