Performance "Piece" - Fashionable Technology

The idea of fantastical human mutation has led me to think about a garment that could make itself. The only thing missing is intent. The human body can contribute that. There are many craft-based examples of the body literally making the textile piece.

Back strap weaving in Guatemala

Finger knitting

Hand crochet

Humans are defined by our incredible, contextually adaptable armature (finger, arms, legs). Even if we have incomplete armature we can adapt and perhaps improve upon what we had before. Taking the human body as Swiss army knife metaphor a step further, I believe we could make a method for the natural kinesthetic motions of the body to create a textile as natural motions occur. Below is a speculative visualization of what such an armature could be.

I have no clue how to literally go about making this happen though…nano-tech? 3D printing?

As a speculative exercise I created this extension armature to simulate extendable skins.
