Introduction
This project takes the search history data of three users and performs keyword extraction, word frequency calculation, and then analyzes it using the LDA method to obtain five shared topic groups and their scores for the level of interest in each topic. Each of the five topics is represented by a balloon, and the level of the total interest score determines the initial size of the balloon, which is then influenced by the score of each individual and the level of their influence on each balloon (inflated speed).

First Iteration: Poly-lines

Modeling Simulation


Interaction with Poly-lines Structure

Structure in Motion
From beginning to the end, balloons inflate to deform the structure.

From one person to three people‘s identity exchange causing balloons to inflate.
Human Interaction
Second Iteration: Curvature and Anchor Point Transformation

Social Distance

Deformation
We reimagined intimacy value and body language as 2D lines, then mapped these onto 3D forms to create a unique chair design. We identified three key points of interaction - the head, shoulder, and hip - and located active and passive lines. These elements work together to form the overall shape and ergonomic structure of the dynamic chair.
