ChromaTweet, Rhizome members exhibition

ChromaTweet (www.chromatweet.com) as a part of Rhizome members exhibition by Jenni Barrett.
'Transience of Emotion explores the ways in which new media art shows our ability to seamlessly transition between feelings almost as quickly as we are able to understand the experiences.'
www.rhizome.org/artbase/exhibitions/view/1565


'ChromaTweet utilises concepts of Twitter but in the form of ‘nanotweets’, using only hexadecimal codes to express emotion through a block colour. When a year of such ‘nanotweets’ is viewed, the rainbow of colour appears reminiscent of transience, showing how just how short-lived a person’s bad or good mood can be.'
