SAM Art Dose integrates art into larger conversations about how to live better, and with wellbeing as our primary focus. __SAM Art Dose Talk: Emotions and the Digital WorldEmotion: from the French word émotion, from émouvoir (“excite”), based on the Latin word emovere, from e- (variant of ex-, meaning “out” ) + movere (“move”) 情感 – 情: affection | 感: feeling உணர்ச்சிகள்: feelings/emotions | உணர்: feel (verb) Human emotion is a complex sequence of neurological changes that can influence our mood and temperament. How do you define, translate and measure emotions? What vocabulary and tools are necessary to effectively speak about and decipher emotions? Can technology play a part in improving the way we read emotions and relate to each other? Join the panel discussion, Emotions and the Digital World where three guests with a diverse range of expertise and experience share their observations and understanding of the role emotions play in the human condition. Free, tickets are required. About the speakers Andrea Fam is an independent curator.
