Dear Arianna,
It is great that
introduced us, I would love to tell you what we are doing! We have a really unique
wearable, doppel, that does not monitor you, does not send you messages, but can make you feel more alert and
focused or more calm, on demand. This has come out of extensive research and experimentation we did in
psychophysiology, the roots of our emotions in our body, and ways that these can be affected to change how we
think, feel and behave. It is empathic technology, subtle technology that works with your body. We do believe
we qualify as an essential self technology, which is why I think
likes it so much!
We have had an unusual path getting here, I am a theoretical physicist turned hardware designer (bio below)
and the other guys are an engineer, a materials scientist and an industrial designer. We have very rigorously
and extensively tested the effect doppel has on people, including independent academic tests measuring
vigilance which found that if you put your doppel at the right settings it increases your alertness and doubles
your focus. It also works to calm you down, its beat sets your pace. We also found it works for people who
suffer from anxiety and depression, although we prefer to be quiet about this as we wouldn't want to stigmatise
the user, we simply describe it as performance enhancing.
As part of our research, we have put doppel on Kickstarter where you can see more: http://kck.st/II2wXmA
It would be great to talk to you more about this and get your feedback. I have seen your stress app and I am
sure there is a lot of common ground there. We are based in London but I will be in Santa Fe until the end of
July, so not so far. I can come find you to show you what we have.
Best wishes,
Fotini

Fotini -
I mentioned Doppel/turquoise to Arianna Huffington and she's very interested to learn more.
I hope you two can touch base. Arianna is sometimes home in LA, and if you could get there to meet so she
could try the device, that would be great.
Warmest,
