This project takes the form of a music app designed to evoke emotions such as longing and love by combining music and imagery that remind individuals of their loved ones. Through a survey, we collected data on their loved ones, the music associated with them, keywords and genres of that music, and various keywords associated with the loved ones. Using this collected data, we generated AI music and AI imagery and interconnected these elements to create a piece that brings to mind loved ones.
As we work with users' emotions, we delve deeper into ways to communicate them more practically. Our biggest takeaway is how important it is to be mindful of how we portray the visuals and sounds generated so as to not offend the people who submitted the survey as they share an intimate memory of their loved ones to us.
