Our paper was recently published in Springer Nature's Scientific Reports! 💥✨
We asked 1,300 people to describe how 1,500 paintings make them feel, and using cutting-edge computational techniques, we explored the rich world of aesthetic experiences evoked by the paintings!
Feel free to explore this colorful interactive map of art and feelings: https://barradeau.com/2021/emotions-map/
