The Pong Dress

The Pong Dress is the creation of artists Max Moswitzer and Magarete Jahrmann of the Ludic Society.

The classic video game Pong is implemented on a 5×7 LED screen worked into the front of the dress. Two pixels on the right and left borders form the paddles; a single pixel is the “ball” moving back and forth.

At hip level, two retro-style game console controllers are plugged in to play the game. Every time a point is scored, the green score display at chest level blinks.
