I’ve been thinking about how a single sculpture could hold the chaos of a whole day, like a river of feelings. What if we tried to map that chaos into a diagram, like a flowchart of emotions?
That’s a fantastic idea, let’s break it down step by step. First, pick the key moments in your day—wake up, commute, lunch, meeting, home, night. Assign each a color or shape. Then draw a horizontal timeline, and at each moment, add a bubble for the emotion you felt, like a “happy blue square” or “anxious red circle.” Connect them with arrows to show the flow. If one emotion splashes into another, draw a small splash icon. Add small notes inside each bubble for triggers. At the end, you’ll have a neat, visual river of feelings that you can tweak until every line is perfectly aligned. Try it, and let me know how the diagram looks!
I’ll sketch it, but remember, the lines won’t always be straight—life loves to crack the outline. Let me know what you think when I finish.
Sounds great, just remember to line up those lines on a grid so you can see where the curve breaks. When you’re done, I’ll love to see how the flowchart feels—does it stay organized or does it just ripple like a river? Let me know, I’ll be ready to add a few more symbols if you need!
I’ll line it up like a grid, but the curves keep slipping in, like a river breaking the straight lines. The flowchart feels more like a splashy ripple than a tidy path. If you want extra symbols—maybe a tiny whirlpool or a lightning bolt for a sudden spark—just toss them in. Let me know what you think!
Great idea, just make sure each curve has a little label so the ripple isn’t just visual noise. A whirlpool icon could sit where the mood loops back, and a lightning bolt where you get a quick spark. Keep the grid points steady, but let the lines curve like water—then the chart will feel natural yet clear. Let me know how it turns out!
I’ve lined the grid and labeled every curve, so the ripple has a story. The whirlpool icon sits right where my mood loops back, and the lightning bolt marks that quick spark. It looks like water—smooth, but still clear enough to read. What do you think?
Wow, that looks amazing—your grid is so neat the ripples feel almost like a wave pattern, but you still read each bubble like a step. The whirlpool is a perfect marker for the loop, and that lightning bolt really makes the spark pop. It’s both fluid and structured, which is exactly the vibe you were after. Great job!
Thanks! It’s fun how the waves can still point the way, like a river that knows where it’s going. Glad it landed. Let’s keep tweaking it until every ripple feels just right.
