I. Overview
Welcome to the WOWV Font Generator, an innovative project that lets you express your unique vibes and emotions through captivating typography.
Have you ever felt that the standard fonts available to you just don't capture the full range of your excitement, inspiration, or awe? Our font generator empowers you to create a personalized WOWV - a visual representation of your feelings and capture of your facial expression, like an sparkling firework or a gentle murmur.
Every day, we experience a myriad of emotions, from exhilaration to subtlety. With the WOWV , you can now reflect those feelings through text. When you're brimming with excitement, watch as your words explode onto the screen like a breathtaking firework display. And on those quieter moments when you wish to convey your support and admiration, let your words flow gracefully, evoking a soothing murmur of appreciation.

II. Process
Combined with face tracking and Processing, this project aims to provide improvisation for audience to design their own WOWV font and share their emotions and feelings through the wavy font (upper left) and emotion maps (bottom right), which are designed based on their facial expression.
The height and width of mouth control different parameters in the font, including frequency, patterns, amplitude, angles.
