We’re all generally aware of the potential dangers of the sun's rays. However, one of those threats, electromagnetic radiation, is also present in the light omitted by our screens.

Whistleblower is a visualiser that acts as ‘a candle in the dark,’ lighting up when there is a strong presence of invisible electromagnetic waves and allowing the user to turn off devices or get the hell away from them!
Using innovative shielding yarns, Plastique has also created a series of fabrics, turned into screens, blankets and pyjamas to act like a subtle Faraday Cage .
