She envisions a unique garment as a living organism, reshaping communication and introducing a new dimension of interaction, inspired by space travel.

Our mission is to empower humans in this universe through data and technology.Fujitsu has chosen to collaborate with the Belgian Jasna Rokegem because she is a young female ambassador who has built the Jasna Rok story (her life as an entrepreneur & artiste) on the belief that data and technology can make lives better. Fujitsu shares the same vision. Jasna Rokegem, famous for her ‘fashion on brainwaves’ experience, explains: “Fujitsu as a company & brand has a lot more to offer than what meets the eye. Via this long term partnership we want to send a strong message to the world. Our mission is to empower people in this universe through data and technology." Carolien François, Business Development Manager at Fujitsu Belgium: “As Fujitsu, we want to co-create on this bright future. We want to empower humans on earth and beyond.

Nokia Bell Labs and Jasna Rok Partnership to Design Innovative Sentient Wearables.Together we have the mission to expand the possibilities of artistic expression and technical innovation for the future of wearable items.Nokia Bell Labs has a long and distinguished history of supporting the creation and production of new art by leveraging its in-house technological skill and innovation, beginning over 50 years ago with the pioneering E.A.T. (Experiments in Art and Technology) project initiated by two Bell Labs engineers, Billy Klüver and Fred Waldhauer, and two artists, Robert Rauschenberg and Robert Whitman. The unique collaboration aimed to foster meaningful exchange between fields and explore the human condition at the beginning of the electronic era.The sentient garment will act as a smart fashionable augmented skin, enveloping its wearer with an intimate and expanded perception of himself/herself (health, emotions, thoughts), people, things, the world and other communicating garments. All the physical senses such as haptic and tactile interfaces will be explored to create novel modes of communication, whereby, for instance, remote presence can be expressed by touch, and personal contextual state and even physiology can be sent remotely to another person, place, or provider of enhanced human digital services. The garment will form a symbiotic skin that will serve as the prime interface to the cyber-physical world, adding a new type of nervous cell to the human experience.@Marcus Weldon, president of Nokia Bell Labs, said: “. Working together with Jasna Rok we will create the future of connected wearables that elicit, transmit and receive multidimensional sensory experiences, allowing us to explore the future of human communications.”
