I found the project “wifi-sm news pain stimulation”. This piece is wireless and can be put on any part of the body. As you wear it will be connected to the internet scanning through news sources. When keywords such as death, murder, rape, ect come up it sends an electric pulse to the piece to generate a safe amount of pain. I think this is a great idea. Everyday we watch or read the news and everyday we are pumped full of horrible things that happen. Most of the time we never stop to think about how this could be affecting our mentality or even our physical health. Whenever this object shocks you it makes you think about these things and how the media affects our lives.
