Subject: Greenwich Emotion Map
Wanted to announce the Greenwich Emotion Map which is the culmination of 6
months of work with local people in Greenwich.
http://www.emotionmap.net/
If you have Google Earth you can view each person's emotion map as well as
their annotations and photos. The height of the tracks indicates people's
arousal level.
The project involved participatory workshops where people could borrow a Bio
Mapping device and go for a walk in the local area. The device measures the
wearer's Galvanic Skin Response (GSR), which is an indicator of emotional
arousal in conjunction with their geographical location. The resulting maps
encourage personal reflection on the complex relationship between us, our
environment and our fellow citizens. By sharing this information we can
construct maps that visualise where we as a community feel stressed and
excited.
As part of Node London, two separate public workshops will take place at
Independent Photography so feel free to join us:
Sunday 19th March 2006 - 12pm
Sunday 26th March 2006 - 12pm

Also on the Thursday 30th March - 18:00pm there will be an official launch
party of the project at the Greenwich Yacht Club. I will email through more
details of this in March ...
