Emotive Spaces: Spatial interpretations based on the book “Der Ohrenzeuge” by Elias Canetti

Focusing on a design methodology that is inspired by emotional conditions rather than rational specifications the paper describes the translation of literature into virtual spaces. In his book „Der Ohrenzeuge“ Elias Canetti describes 50 surreal characters, which were analyzed in the first step due to their anthropological features. The following interpretation of these features into spatial qualities, using visualization software as an expressive medium, was realized by the definition of parameters for geometry, light, material and camera settings to achieve a spatial analogy of the given characters. The experimental approach led to a deeper understanding of spatial qualities in respect to atmospheric impressions and triggered at the same time the application of digital tools for an intuitive design process.
