Emotion Visual Builder

Description

A conversational app where an abstract animation is generated in real-time according to the user’s description of how an emotion feels to them. The app offers an embodied interospective process to build emotional fluency.

Intent

So much of my “emotions” tooling and content is text-based - even the somatic descriptions are full text - so I want to explore visual and animation.

There are two potential versions of this tool:

• A way for me to create CSS animations for the other apps I’m building that have lists of emotions
• A publishing and viewing tool, for users to create their own
