According to the blurb, "pulse is a live visualisation of the recent emotional expressions written on the private weblogs of blogger.com". It's interesting because stuff online is being used to create art offline.
It's kind of a mashup of Julius Popp's intriguing Bit.Fall (below) and and also the 'feel map' that I blogged about here.
Also reminds me a bit of the plant in E.T. which seems to respond to E.T.'s health.
I really, really want time and location to be factored into these things, especially as mining the emotions gets better. It would be such an interesting insight into people's expressed emotions as news stories ripple through a population or more generally what a particular population is feeling in a year.
