OTHER PERSPECTIVE
DETAILS OF THE WORK
ULTRA INNOVATION Prize
The world can appear differently depending on one's emotions. When overwhelmed with strong emotions, our internal canvases are rewritten. When we feel negative emotions, our brains are noisy, whereas with positive emotions the same brain lights up like the night sky and changes the way we see the world.
This piece tries to bring that to life

I selected In My Brain for the ULTRA INNOVATION Prize.
I thought the approach of using virtual space as a place to share "emotions" was very innovative. Certainly, the "space" looks different depending on the mood and emotions of each person present there. When you are happy, the scenery looks different from when you are sad.
The brilliance of this work is that it has translated this emotion into a user interface within the space. I could sense the wide-ranging possibilities in both how the experience is structured, namely how the world appears to change when you peer through the windows placed in the space, and the visuals that are used to produce this effect.ULTRA INNOVATION Prize Jury
