1/ Two-Folds
This project presents pairs of words with contrasting meanings and uses moving circles to provide simple visual representations.
The language we read and write is just one of our tools of expression. A word may not perfectly match or encapsulate the object to which it refers, and a single word may have multiple meanings at once. Moreover, within literature, we can often find words used in ways that imply different connotations than their dictionary definitions. There are also many forms of non-verbal languages, such as sign language, dancing, and body language.
This project was intended as a visualization of the meaning of our everyday language using only the elements of movement, speed, and variation in the size of the circles. In presenting such a visualization, I tried to amplify the visual's intuitive aspect and offer an abstract expression that would suggest meaning beyond the written words.
