Our theme is emotions where we’ll display six emotions: Happiness, Sadness, Fear, Disgust, Anger, and Surprise. The transition between emotions will be smooth hue shifts which blend color from previous emotion to the next. 

Proof-of-concepts 

Anger: 

  • Starting with colors like red, orange and yellow with a pattern of flicker which simulates burning fire. As the shades of colors get darker and darker, the emotion is getting more intense. Then we will transition to even darker colors, close to black, and end with an explosion effect. 

Happiness:

  • Created a narrative of a sunny day that starts with a sun across a blue sky, moving to a field of blowing grass, and ending with a blooming of radiant purple flowers

Disgust:

  • A representation of approaching a swampy body where fumes are consuming and bubbles are popping and when one does, covers the entire bridge with its sludge. 

Implementation Questions 

  • How can we coordinate audio without visuals? We feel that currently there is an effective representation of emotion in our project, but are curious how another form of media could further evoke the emotion from the viewer?
  • The flicker effect has been used a far amount in our preliminary design, how will this be displayed on the bridge?
