Fluid Emotions
Abstract
The project Fluid Emotions directly aligns with the inquiry into leveraging sensory engagement and cultural sensitivity to craft immersive experiences that promote well-being. By exploring the emotional resonance generated by water settings within the framework of Somaesthetics, the project delves into the profound impact of sensory experiences on emotions and somatic awareness. Through engaging and observing various water-based experiences designed to evoke specific emotions, Fluid Emotions not only deepens our understanding of the intricate relationship between sensory stimuli, emotions, and somatic awareness but also offers practical applications in wellness. This aligns with the broader goal of designers seeking to create immersive experiences that foster both delight and well-being for diverse audiences. By emphasising the role of emotions in somatic experiences and highlighting the therapeutic potential of carefully crafted sensory engagements, "Fluid Emotions" contributes valuable insights to the field, encouraging further exploration and innovation in designing experiences that cater to diverse cultural contexts and promote holistic well-being.
