Clinical and Educational Applications of LIVEIA: An Immersive   Visualization Environment
  The association between light and psychological states has a long history and permeates our language. LIVEIA (Light-based Immersive Visualization Environment for Imaginative Actualization) is a new immersive, interactive technology that uses physical light as a metaphor for visualizing peoples' inner lives and relationships. This paper outlines its educational value, as a tool for understanding and explaining aspects of how people think and interact, and its potential therapeutic value as a form of art therapy in which the artwork has straightforwardly interpretable symbolic meanings.
