Process Blogging - Concept and Our Experience Thus Far

Here is some brainstorming previously done before class by Nisa and I.


Concept for Katerie's project - 

Our project records the pulse of the heart and produces a fluctuating visual image of the body. 

Do we relate this to personality, personal activity, emotions?

Heart as the seat of the soul, seat of emotions, seat of passion, etc.
color chakra is green - harmony, creativity, health, abundance, and nature. 
Stop and smell the roses - Nisa

Move faster, heart rate faster, the image more weak.
Move slower, heart rate slower, image more strong. 

Catches a ghostly image of your past with the outline. 

Reflections - 

Creating a visual connection from the way your expressions affect your heart rate. 

*** More recent reflections and ideation of finalizing the concept****

**** NEED FOR KATERIE PROJECT: Projector connector - VGA mini-display port - has to have a female end or the short wire. 

First planning it out: Image and first impression. Stronger vs. Lighter image. 
Strength - Ego - portraying yourself as a strong person. FORGET THIS LOGIC.

The way it works is the steadier you are, the steadier your heartbeat, the stronger your image is, which is a representation of the way the steadier you are in a stressful situation

In looking at yourself as a person in self image, a faster pulse would imply strength and stability, but truthfully,

What does this thing do?  Portraying anxiety/management of stress versus what you're trying to portray. 
 Removing the false image that a person desires to create. 
Putting someone in front of an audience in front of the projector and tell them to be calm, but instead, it will strip away the 

How confident and comfortable you are with your own skin at a given time.
