Tattle-Tale Heart is a queer fictional short film about authenticity, privacy & connection in social media—all seen through the lens of the human heart. A dystopian portrait of blurring boundaries between body and machine, it’s based on an app that reads heart rate through your web cam, calculates your *true* mood, and posts it directly to your feed.
Everything After: Art installation & community organizing on UC Berkeley campus.
The Speculative Heart
Tattletale Heart tells you — and everybody else — what your heart is really saying.
Health data for employers.
Discreetly posed as a business card holder, Babump (“bah-bump”) picks up signals from compatible heart monitors and displays health data on the back of the device. Now, you can track your employees’ cardiovascular system in real time.
Meeglo senses your heart rate and glows as it changes. It’s a tool for heart-centered breathing, so you can learn to match your heart to your breath and balance your mind.
Meeglo is a start-up launching in 2016 with the support of the Foundry tech incubator. Lark and Janine Heiser are co-founders, with Levon Fox contributing to design.
