This prototype traces a perceptual journey through four affective states—relax, focus, tension, and o overstimulation—by translating subtle emotional shifts into audiovisual form.

It invites the viewer into a first-person exploration of a world shaped by inner intensity, where visual glitches and sonic distortions act as markers of psychological transition.

At its core lies a simulation of the body: the heartbeat defines rhythm and gives temporal structure to the environment; breath modulates sonic texture and light, adding emotional nuance and atmospheric stability; eye movement becomes the spatial engine—restlessness disrupts the image, triggering glitches and fragmentations, while stillness anchors attention.

As sound builds, so does the density of feedback and interference. The environment, once soft and diffused, becomes sharp, reactive, and spatially unstable—mirroring the body’s passage from calm observation to sensory overload. Here, perception is not passive: it moves, hesitates, locks on, flinches. The visual field tightens as focus emerges, fractures under stress, and eventually dissolves under overstimulation.

This 3.30-minute piece investigates how we emotionally read space and how the body—through its perceptual modes—writes

itself into the audiovisual language.
