About the project
Can technology motivate creative thinking?
According to flow theory, repetitive hand movements can induce states of high focus - "the zone" - in which radical new perspectives become possible.
Mindflow introduces a voice agent that guides creators through moments of creative block. Computer vision tracks hand movement in real time; a machine-learning algorithm maps connections between physical gesture and thought - identifying moments of high focus and key points where creators tend to explain themselves both verbally and by hand.
The system builds a personal thought-map, creating meditative conditions that can trigger a breakthrough.
