A Sculpture Shows a City’s Mood By Translating Tweets Into Colored Goo

Monolitt is an Oslo graphics exhibit created by Norwegian artist Syver Lauritzsen and Eirik Haugen Murvoll . The waistline - mellow object identifies the emotions in tweet , match the emotion to a predetermined color , and exudate that color in paint out of the top . It ’s like city - wide techno - mood ringing . Only cool than that verbal description .

In the artists ’ television , you may watch both the building of Monolitt and watch it squirt pink with happiness and black with angriness . From theartists ’ command :

MONOLITT is an synergistic installation that quite literally paints the mood of the city , using social sensitive feeds as an input signal . The installation pack electronic signals and permit them manifest themselves in the physical worldly concern . Using opinion analytics , the installing liaison tweets to corresponding colored paints in realtime , feeding them out through the top of the carving , letting them run into a procedurally bring forth three - dimensional house painting .
