WeFeelFine
http://www.wefeelfine.org

Category: Visual Representation

Overview: Since August 2005, We Feel Fine has been harvesting human feelings
from a large number of weblogs. Every few minutes, the system searches the
world's newly posted blog entries for occurrences of the phrases quot;I feelquot; and quot;I
am feelingquot;. When it finds such a phrase, it records the full sentence, up to the
period, and identifies the quot;feelingquot; expressed in that sentence (e.g. sad, happy,
depressed, etc.). Because blogs are structured in largely standard ways, the age,
gender, and geographical location of the author can often be extracted and
saved along with the sentence, as can the local weather conditions at the time
the sentence was written. All of this information is saved.
The interface to this data is a self-organizing particle system, where each
particle represents a single feeling posted by a single individual. The particles'
properties – color, size, shape, opacity – indicate the nature of the feeling
inside, and any particle can be clicked to reveal the full sentence or photograph
it contains. The particles careen wildly around the screen until asked to self-
organize along any number of axes, expressing various pictures of human
emotion. We Feel Fine paints these pictures in six formal movements titled:
Madness, Murmurs, Montage, Mobs, Metrics, and Mounds.

Features:
- Visualize human emotions and conversations using columns, nodes, graphics,...
- The result is a database of several million human feelings, increasing by 15,000
- 20,000 new feelings per day.
- This technology can be used to recognize any words that we would like to
underline, so it can be personalized based on the requirements.

- Take this technology and the visual representation scheme to visualize other
concepts. For example: creative concept for The Oscars.
