exopack [exoskeleton + backpack]
not to be confounded with ecopack :P
This is that kind of project which always pop up when you are working on something else, obvious...
you can spin the object in the above clip, if doesn't work just wait to until it load... [aprox.10"]
I was studying the idea of protection, physical protection of the human body through diverse accessories, the motorcycle protection gear for example.
Visiting the zoology museum I realize that there are some animals which have an external protection, but they have it as there own skeleton. I find the idea of having your skeleton as a protection a very good starting point for all sort of other projects
That external skeleton was named by the scientists as "exoskeleton".
I start asking my self what should it be if humans will had this sort of exoskeleton, or what should it be if this had ben the way that we are thinking about a structure, a human structure, an object's structure... the structure as a container.
... next, you can see the first sketches
