They feel like they are made from completely different material - soft like fabric, yet able to hold their form no matter how much you try to stretch them. You get that unique feeling of a very high-quality physical product like you would get from, for a example holding a very fine sword.

Wow can’t tell anything about subject of the piece, but as at as design goes it is an almost 100% rip off of Miriam Simin’s “Agalinis Dreams”. Incredible that MIT would let this kind of thing happen.
Here is an image of the work I mention - happened to see it in NYC in person a while back, it was working with the sense of smell too, so, looks like subject matter is also uncomfortably close http://www.arts.uci.edu/event/embodied-encounters
