Tongue and Cheek: Afectógrafo — with Rocío Guerrero Marín (Audio)
Afectógrafo — with Rocío Guerrero Marín Afectógrafo is an ongoing series of participatory exercises led by Rocío Guerrero Marín. An "afectógrafo" is a tool, a necklace designed to register involuntary body movements. This tool is worn by invited participants while telling their experiences of life disappointments. The necklace registers the movements and reactions of their body when activating their affective memory, translating it into a pen's movement and line. The resulting drawing is a record of their emotional experience.
