multiple colours or simple one colour?

I want to make my project quite dynamic without using multiple colours. I think the maximum number of colours will be 3~4.

What to wear?

I've been thinking about what part of our body to use for my project. First think that cames of mind was the "Gloves". I could use for sign language or for dance party.
Here some images I found from net.

Dancepants MP3 Player


the conceptual Dancepants Kinetic Music player would "motivate you to move your feet in order to hear your music." Better shuffle about while taking that breather, or no pump-up tunes for you.


"And as long as you keep running or dancing you can be sure you won't run out of battery." We may yet reach the point where we need to self-power all our gadgets, but until that day arrives, bring on the batteries or socket chargers.
