Getemotions.io
The research in my master started with the fascination of new interfaces that combined digital and physical design. During this research I found that digital innovation is lacking design for emotion. To help other designers with applying emotional design in their processes I created getemotions.io a platform where I share my knowledge and invite other designers to upload cases, pledge to design more for emotion and create a workflow.

Master Thesis
The research started with understanding how you learn the meaning of a word.
The steps are as followed, you get input. You hear the word or maybe read it somewhere. The next time you hear it, you’ll recognize the word. Then you start to connect the word with other words that give them meaning. This is called semantizing the word, it gives the word a place in your structure. After this step you’re ready to use it and get in a feedback loop. In this loop you’re imporving your understanding of the word by input from others.
I’ve mapped this in a journey and then created different methods for the steps in the journey.
