A Calendar AR Pop-up Book for
Visualizing Migraine Experience
This project uses the form of an artistic calendar book to explore the complex first-person perspective experience of migraine pain, visually and emotionally representing different dimensions of pain through abstract composition of colorful shapes, book cover texture, calendar text design, and a series of head pictures with AR animation overlay. Each section present a category of pain caused by different reasons, and illustrate a unique use of colors, and AR animations, immersing viewers in fruitful sensations. By combining physical book design with AR, this project aims to call for attention and care to the often-overlooked painful experience of migraine sufferers. Its ultimate goal is to promote empathy and understanding, offering a visually engaging way for people to connect and empathize with the invisible struggle of migraine.

Blur, Rotate, Transformation, Color Changes, Size, Transparency = Migraine Experience
Each one has 3-4 tracks, and the most common practice is when the graph rotates or zoomed in and out, it will be accompanied by blurring, discoloration, deformation and other effects, which are located in the same key frame. This can achieve the feeling of confusion and can better express the randomness and tense of pain
A Diary Calendar: Record of My Migraine
AR Presentation
Within the field of augmented reality (AR) in art, this project follows in the footsteps of installations that combine digital overlays with physical textures to create layered, immersive experiences. Unlike conventional static installations, AR art allows for an evolving dialogue between viewer and object. This work builds on this principle by using AR animations to reveal different dimensions of pain as viewers move through each layer of the calendar, creating a visceral, layered experience that parallels the episodic nature of chronic migraines.
