K.I.S.S. Your Friends

A game for exploring touch and intimacy

The Kinematic Intimacy Sticker System or K.I.S.S. was designed for the Object Oriented Orgasm Hackathon as part of Commiserate Chicago. Using soft circuitry and skin-safe adhesive, we created an inviting, accessible, and fun way to explore touch and intimacy that placed consent and the players at the forefront of the experience. As opposed to traditional 'bedroom' games, players of K.I.S.S. have complete autonomy to customize how and where they want to explore touch. Using the wearable, soft circuit stickers, players use small devices to touch and activate the stickers which causes the sticker wearer to receive a sensation based on the output module they chose at the start of the game.
