Design: Explorations in Interactive Visualization. Based on the feedback from my Emotion Tracking Experiment, I've continued iteration on visual outputs for recorded emotion data. One of the needs. Small multiples visualizations seemed to be the most obvious first step to try. Small multiple designs answers directly [the question: Compared to what? By visually enforcing comparison of changes, of the differences among objects, of the scope of alternatives (Envisioning Information, 67).

Experiment: Divorce in Film. As a first step in looking at how our culture expresses emotions in relation to divorce, I looked at major motion pictures with significant scenes that addressed divorce and in some cases Grey Divorce. ACOD: Adult Children of Divorce. Catch Me If You Can. The Devil Wears Prada. Gone with the Wind. Wolf of Wall Street. Catch Me If You Can, 2002. To me personally, the film captures the shock and the rippling affect that a Grey Divorce can have on. Mrs Doubtfire, 1993. The basis...

I quickly digitized the container as a square and used the following scale:. Small group of annotated days:.

11 - 19 July 2016. As a framework for the Visual System, I defined the Needs as they exist from all target groups involved: Psychology Professionals, Patients, Field of Emotion Research, and Linguistics. I expect this list to change accordingly as my research and eventually user-testing progresses. The Field of Emotion Research needs a system. Focusing on exposing/recording the felt qualities of:. Feeling of pleasure or displeasure in the body. Feeling the response systems. Containing a scale for Intensi...

Design: Iceberg Triggers and Actions. November - December, 2016. Explorations from the iceberg metaphor and how each dimension should visually manifest in order to form a coherent and memorizable system without losing its abstract and atmospheric expression.

Height of the form (1: short, 5: tall). Once I had a basic loo...
