Emotions
description
This project was to design something that evoked an emotional experience. My solution to this was to create two Processing sketches. One was an interactive tonal generator that allows the user to move four rings that generate tones around the screen. They cycle in 4/4 time and generate different tones depending on where each ring is placed on the screen. The user can create beautifully musical tones or unnerving discords. For the second sketch I decided to create the unpleasant experience of a weird worm like creature eminating from the center of the screen. The sound design for this sketch is particularly disturbing and is best experienced in a dark room...
Nycbophobicage
description
Human emotions vary between different types of environments. We can be confused and scared in one scenario or we can even be full of happiness in another. The purpose of this work is to create a three dimensional space in which users can interact with and feel emotion. Sheets of corrugated cardboard are put together into a structure that will fit a limited space such that it can be taken apart and flat-packed.
The Nycbophobic cage elicits fear as the user is enclosed in an unfamiliar setting in which the user is isolated and confined from the outer world.
