Contours of Hidden Pain
#011An AR poster on how childhood trauma settles into the spine — a frozen memory held as posture and muscle tension. Scan it in public space and it unfolds as biological form.

A — STORYBOARD AND SKETCH
A poster in a public space, scanned with a phone, opening into AR — physical to psychological, body to mind. The sketches hunt the point where a line has stopped being a diagram and is not yet an illustration.
B — MORPHOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT: FROM 2D SKETCH TO 3D FORM
Time went into learning Unity AR, not modelling — so I drew by hand and converted with Tripo AI. The drawing keeps its expression; the conversion tests forms in 3D fast. Of dozens of generated models I kept a few.
C — POSTER COMPOSITION
Elements pulled straight from the moodboard and combined with the 3D material. Mostly graphic design — spatial composition and visual experiment, done fast.
D — FINAL AR IMPLEMENTATION AND VIDEO PRESENTATION
Audio generated with Suno AI: two tracks layered and distorted into something quiet and unsettling. Animation and AR built in Unity with Vuforia.
More than half the project time went into learning the software. I’d like to refine this demo as my technical ability catches up.
