Greenwich Emotion Map
A Bio Mapping project by
Christian Nold - Oct 2005 - March 06
6 month artist commission hosted by Independent Photography as part of 'Peninsula', a series of artist commissions on the Greenwich Peninsula.
Artist Christian Nold has been invited to collaborate with local residents from the Greenwich Peninsula to explore the area afresh and build an emotion map of the area that explores people's relationship with their local environment.
The project is set up as a series of participatory
workshops that invite people to borrow a
Bio Mapping
device and go for a walk. The device measures the
wearer's Galvanic Skin Response (GSR), which is an
indicator of emotional arousal in conjunction with
their geographical location. The resulting maps
encourage personal reflection on the complex
relationship between us, our environment and our fellow
citizens. By sharing this information we can construct
maps that visualise where we as a community feel
stressed and excited.
As part of Node
London, two separate public workshops will take
place in March at Independent Photography, where people
will be able to see the collective Greenwich Emotion
Map as well as participate by going for their own walk
in the local area.
The rinted 'Greenwich Emotion Map' is now available from Independent Photography as well as a
number of other local Node London venues.
