Resumo

Este estudo explora os princípios do design sinestésico e sua correlação com os níveis de ansiedade, com o objetivo de investigar como a interação entre sensações corporais e manifestações emocionais pode ser utilizada para desenvolver abordagens mais eficazes na saúde mental e no processo de sensibilização de sua importância, tanto a nível do indivíduo quanto da sociedade. Este trabalho analisa a influência do design sinestésico nos níveis de ansiedade, buscando aprofundar a compreensão das complexas interações entre corpo, mente e ambiente, com implicações diretas para a promoção da saúde mental. O biofeedback é identificado como uma abordagem crucial, pois se alinha à sinestesia quando implementado em uma instalação interativa, permitindo uma visualização mais precisa de respostas fisiológicas relacionadas a níveis de ansiedade, como a frequência cardíaca, fornecendo feedback imediato das emoções do usuário relacionadas à ansiedade.

Abstract

This study explores the principles of synesthetic design and its correlation with anxiety levels, aiming to investigate how the interaction between bodily sensations and emotional manifestations can be used to develop more effective approaches in mental health and in raising awareness of its importance, both at the individual and societal levels. This work analyzes the influence of synesthetic design on anxiety levels, seeking to deepen the understanding of the complex interactions between body, mind, and environment, with direct implications for the promotion of mental health. Biofeedback is identified as a crucial approach, as it aligns with synesthesia when implemented in an interactive installation, allowing for a more precise visualization of physiological responses related to anxiety levels, such as heart rate, providing immediate feedback on the user's emotions related to anxiety.
Keywords:
