Artefact 2 - Aim & Plan

For my second artefact as part of my Audiovisual Therapy study, I intend to find out whether audio elements or visual elements have a stronger calming effect on the viewer.

This is due to the conclusions I made and the feedback I received for the first artefact:

Artefact 1
  • Confirmed the initial assumption, but the most influential element could not be determined
  • Both calming visual elements and audio elements were relaxing to the viewers, however, which one had the greatest effect was not clear
Finding out which element has the greatest potential to induce a more relaxed state in the viewer is significant in designing a format for a therapeutic audiovisual piece. In order to make this distinction, I plan to separate the audio from the visuals and test their relaxing effects independently of each other.
