Vitality Lab

"Without vitality forms, the world would lack much of its interest, and interactions would likely be digital rather than analogical"
(Stern, 2010)

Observing or performing an action, such as picking up and passing a small bottle of water, conveys a wealth of information. The way we carry out the action changes based on our emotional state. Daniel Stern referred to this modulation as "Vitality Forms". Research on the insula has revealed that a specific region becomes active in response to different Vitality Forms.
