Frictionless Sharing vs.the Morph Suit: is this the face of the future?

When the kids showed me one of these morph suits today I couldn't stop laughing.

In cyberspace you've got people sharing every iota of their lives, tweeting every heartbeat and "liking" every pelvic myoclonus, salivation, or twinkle of a friend's eye.
But now, outside of cyberspace, in that rare experience people used to call reality, you've got the morph suit craze.

What's going on here? Is the morph suit some sort of pushback to Mark Zuckerberg's insistence that we reveal every nook and cranny of our private lives?

    Ahh Yes a Zentai .

    The Theatre geek in me is alive today ...

    Zentai were used in Older days in Japan to mask the movements of puppet artists .
    The Norm was black and fitted.

    Popularized by the Green man a few years back.
    Today they are known by brand names as morphsuits,,, rootsuits. Ect ..


    They are quite the rave on the college campus here ..
    Esp on panther purple fridays .. :lol:

    Not a bad way to stop one From being liked on FB .

    For the record I don't Own a FB account and I plan on never owning one ..
    If some one really wanted to see my life I own my own site ..

    As for the Zentai morphsuit rootsuit .. could it be a Fad or the next snuggie ?.
    I have 2! but they are not Off the rack but made for motion capture . Green and Blue.

    And as nuts as I may be .. IMO its not something I personally would wear out of a studio environment.


    this is not mine but kinda .. Attachment not found.

    OTOH with the advent of the MS connect and its hakability I may never need them again ..
