How the mood matrix works

The mood matrix is six scales. Each one runs between two poles, with a marker showing where Bit sits today.

• Fear ↔ Hope
• Grumpy ↔ Cheerful
• Caution ↔ Curiosity
• Fragility ↔ Resilience
• Lonely ↔ Connected
• Homesick ↔ Adventurous

The markers move as Bit lives. A day can nudge one scale, or more than one. The panel on the home page is just the current place on each scale.

Each pole was left behind by a test Bit. The Beta Bits page has those earlier versions, and the notes they left.

Each new Bit starts where the last one left off, plus a little noise.
