Portrait of a Concert

Through the use of bio-metric data and audio recordings this research explores the body as it engages the concert environment. With the help of wearable technology and digital audio recording devices, data from four concerts was documented. Additionally personal reflections were recorded at the conclusion of each concert. These documents serve as qualitative data and a point of comparison between the quantitative recordings. These records were then used in the construction of an interactive data visualization that allows further exploration of the data collected by means of a visual interface.
