TED Fellow Lucy McRae is a body architect -- she imagines ways to merge biology and technology in our own bodies. In this visually stunning talk, she shows her work, from clothes that recreate the body's insides for a music video with pop-star Robyn, to a pill that, when swallowed, lets you sweat perfume.
Trained as a classical ballerina and architect, Lucy McRae is fascinated by the human body, and how it can be shaped by technology. Full bio ยป
