Alter Chip Jewelry
For systems it can be difficult showing who's who. And it can feel wonderful to have someone call us by our actual name, not the body's name. These chips insert into wearable jewelry that can be used to show who someone's talking to. With that, if we're having trouble figuring out who's fronting, we can scatter them out and have a tactile method of sorting through our system. The text and the symbol correspond to each alter.
