How we recognize angry and happy emotion in people, places and things
Article Abstract:
The power of nonrepresentational visual patterns to produce meaning was examined in a series of studies using materials that presented geometric shapes in a variety of line drawings, large scale physical movement in classical ballet, and configurations among individuals in 17th- century Dutch art. Results across all studies suggested that for the emotions of anger and happiness, atleast, meaning is carried in the geometric properties of the visual display.
