Emotional Mapping (not quite what you'd think)

 
So this fellow made a device that measured your level of emotional "arousal" (not too sure on the specifics) but he then invited people to take walks with the device attached to their finger. The device collected locational and "emotional" data, which they then mapped. Participants annotated parts of their walks with notes, which are then overlaid on the maps as text. 
 
Interesting stuff, lots of reactions to views of the city and houses, which I think is interesting.
