The Affective Delineation Series is the result of a Gazell.io digital residency at the Gazelli Art House, May 2018.

In this immersive VR artwork, a long corridor is filled with curving forms that represent the dynamic nature of human conversation. Each curve is a visual metaphor for a dialogue between two people, shaped by markers drawn from conversation analysis research. The undulations and oscillations of the curves express the flow of empathy, tension, or connection within each exchange, making the affective nuances of communication visible and tangible. These conversations embody moments of agreement, conflict, misunderstanding and other emotional resonance, offering an visual exploration of how empathy is conveyed through conversational signals.
