@iHomestarrunner69 There's some shape memory alloy wire embedded in the cloth.

[PacoBell]

@Bmud They're also known as "EMG electrodes". Google that.

I didn't understand the fabric part! Why was it moving?

[fassoulia]

real magic! magicians should use this!

[Bmud]

Where on earth do I buy "myoelectric sensors"?

[danierusama]

you can make lightweight wings with that net-like cloth, and some kind of insect eyes or antennas for the eye muscles

[sintaks]

Since the SMA doesn't retract at the same speed with with it contracts, you should add counter-muscles for the "releasing" movement, much like the muscles on the top of your forearm flex to open your hand wide, and the ones on the bottom of your arm flex when to make a fist.
