‘Ma
Machine d´Emotions’ is
the story of a man wrestling with how to express his emotions, who then builds
a gigantic, unbelievably complex machine in which he conceals a special emotion
that only she for whom it is intended will be able to discover: a secret
message meant for one particular
person
hidden amidst the organised chaos of 523 different emotions.
The
story centres on a gigantic man figure depicted kneeling on a wooden chair, who
clasps an enormous humming top in his claws, on which the 523 emotions are
classified according to a complex order of prime numbers, categories, colours,
symbols, languages and texts. Detailed pen drawings depict the machine and the
man and the individual emotions and their interconnections.
'Disgust', is one of the main emotions of the Machine.
