IBM — PROJECT DEBATER

I collaborated with the talented team of Perception NYC developing different concepts, aesthetics and motion tests for one of the ambitious projects of IBM - Project Debater, an advanced Artificial Intelligence technology capable of forming and articulating arguments based on research and facts in real-time. The main goal and challenge were to create a "persona", a visual representation that was approachable and engaging, also, it needed to be capable of conveying subtle emotions like thought, confidence, humor and disagreement. We covered a wide variety of explorations from 2D/3D solutions to Abstract and Experimental while understanding and visualizing what felt right for the Debater.

CAPSULE — MOTION TESTS

After exploring some potential ideas, the Perception team provided me with a design represented by a capsule shape with a fluid stored in its container, I helped to do some motion tests experimenting with different types of movements and behaviour.
