Climate Voices / Voices Climate

As an booth exhibition, highly dynamic environment where various people constantly come and go, what is the best way for visitors to deeply think about environmental issues?

We have proposed a mechanism that allows visitors to engage in discussions with other attendees across different timeframes, fostering a continuous exchange of ideas and perspectives.

Questionarie system that brings about realizations 🌏

In this survey system, we used sentence vectorization to instantly analyze submitted opinions and visualize them as a climate map-like representation, showing the relationship with answers from another visitors.

By responding to this survey, visitors have the power to influence the 'climate of opinions' in the place. We believe that expressing thoughts, sharing intentions, and each individual action can lead the world in a positive direction.

text analysis algorithm 🔀

To obtain a vector of texts, we utilized Sentence Transformers, which can be run locally. Subsequently, we reduced the dimensionality of the vectors to 2 dimensions using the t-SNE algorithm. Finally, we visualized the data as a 'climate map' with a contour effect based on the density of points.
