Visit our official Twitter account for updates: @EmotionEcho

Created by Stanley Walker

@EmotionEcho is an interactive system that expresses the sentiment of Twitter posts artistically, allowing viewers to experience the emotions of real-time tweets and explore the tone of Twitter trends. Incoming tweets are reflected through a corresponding stroke on the virtual canvas, with its tone being represented by its shade of color. When a keyword is entered, such as a #hashtag or @username, strokes emerge from the center of the canvas for each tweet containing the keyword. With 500 million tweets per day on average, there are always active conversations and debates ready to be expressed. Alternatively, you can tweet directly to @EmotionEcho and create an artwork of your own.
