REACTIVEfashion is a cross-disciplinary collaborative project created by Angela Sheehan and Rebecca Grabman at Bennington College. A combination of physical computing and costume design, the REACTIVEfashion line is a series of wearable computing art projects exploring the intersection of technology, clothing, and performance. Each designer produced personal projects as well as three collaborative garments presented during the college's Spring Fashion Show in April 2007. REACTIVEfashion was featured the 2007 Senior Art Show, a DIY Workshop, and a retrospective show in December 2007.
