GMU:Speculative Atmospheres II/Robin: Difference between revisions

Hi iam Robin and this is the journey of my Speculative Atmospheres Projekt. :)

My first idea was to find a quicker way of getting information through colors and forms. As the role model I chose the nature and its capabilities to give information through our senses. We as humans have developed different forms to transport Information with numbers and words, but our brain has the ability to see the smallest differences in color much more immediately than numbers, because we connect these colors to different emotions and feelings.

3. I informed myself about the effect of colors to the emotions of the human brain. This was very theoretical but also interesting. I also decided to use my own knowledge and feelings to choose the color layout. I endet up with a color transition from dark blue (cold) to dark red (warm). I tested the layout one week and compared it to a regular thermometer to ensure the functionality in an everyday environment. My projekt worked surprisingly good after an adjustment period of two to three days.  

4. After this time of everyday use I decided to work on the visual layout even more to show the recipients that the image gets constantly updated with new value via a little trick. I included a very slightly recognizable working random function inside the value of the humidity to show the recipients visually that there are changing values. I also want to include the same in the color.
