Concept

Modern communication is dominated by technologies: cell phones, e-mail, instant messaging, video conferencing, etc. While we are able to communicate with many people nationally and internationally with ease, we have emotions that technology does not easily communicate. Even with all of our communication possibilities, we are still largely lonely people.

In this project we chose to explore the possibility of a technology that would be used exclusively to communicate emotion. We decided to make a structure that would react to the emotions of a person. The structure is like an animal that changes form based on emotion. The person is the source of the emotion; she is the "heart" of the animal, and is physically inside the structure communicating her emotions to the outside world.
