We'll develop clothing that can constantly project the video of our choosing (unless it turns out being so annoying that we ban it). Imagine wearing a robe covered in a display that actually projects the night sky in realtime. Imagine talking to people over the "phone" just by making a hand gesture and activating electronics in your lapel, then merely thinking about what you want to say (thought-to-speech interfaces). The possibilities of e-textiles are limitless.
I think things like this might seem frivolous to us on earth who can get whatever we want at the store, but think about the psychology of actually living on an alien planet with a few people in a tiny series of tanks for an extended period of time. You will need something frivolous like this just to keep from going insane. I like the idea in principle, I just don't know how difficult it will be to program. Maybe just create a bunch of prefab options rather than allowing players to add their own? As with music, customizing your clothes makes you feel at home and keeps the crazies away.
